Fun and interesting equine facts…
Did you know that horses can see in color? They can also see in two
directions at once! Also, a horse focuses its eye by changing the angle
of its head, not by changing the shape of the lens of the eye as humans
do. A horse has two blind spots…one directly in front of him, and one
directly behind him! The teeth take up more room in a horses head than
its brain! (That explains a lot!!!) For more interesting equine trivia,
