Horses are pretty stupid animals

They aren't studies have shown they are inteligent, one study where they usedsymbols of a horse with a blanket on it and symbols of a horse without a blanket in it.
Then they put blankets on those horses and showed them that sign and they did the same for no blanket on a hoser the horses worked out that if they wanted the blanket taken off because they were hot to hit the no blanket sign and visa versa. So thought the summer winter the horse were telliong the staff whether or not they wanted a blanket over them by hitting on the appropriate panel.

I wish our managment staff understood such things .



‰¥but race horses take the biscuit they
are mad as hatters (it's all that inbreeding. EVERY race horse today is
descended from four Arabian stallions. And there hasn't been enough time
for small changes in their DNA caused by radiation to breed out the
stupidity)
