The Farming Report 11/12

Howdy! This week we will be looking at Horses!

 
Its it majestic?! I love the way horse look when they run! So free and wild! (Unlike Layla, who hurt her ankle and is on crutches...) Well enough of my rambling! Lets get to the facts!
 
Horses can sleep both lying down and standing up.
  • Horses can run shortly after birth.
  • Domestic horses have a lifespan of around 25 years.
  • A male horse is called a stallion.
  • A female horse is called a mare.
  • A young male horse is called a colt.
  • A young female horse is called a filly.
  • Horses are herbivores (plant eaters).
  • Horses have bigger eyes than any other mammal that lives on land.
  • Because horse’s eyes are on the side of their head they are capable of seeing nearly 360 degrees at one time.
  • Horses gallop at around 44 kph (27 mph).
  • A horse's teeth take up more space in their head then their brain.

  •  
    Hope you enjoyed!
