Really cool being able to have a leg like this donated for further education! This horse had severe arthritis in its fetlock joint that involved the splint bones and sesamoids. This horse was purchased in this condition and kindly euthanized and donated to me. History is unknown. *Negative comments will not be tolerated here this horse was purchased to kindly end its clear suffering *

Thoughts on the Wild and Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act of 1971? Are y'all in the "horses are a successful reintroduction" or "horses are an invasive species" camp?
Hi! I apologize in advance. This was a better question for me rather than Jo given my background in natural resource management and wildlife biology, and I haven’t been feeling my best over the last few days.
To put it bluntly, I think the act is awful and places the lives of domesticated, feral livestock above the innerworkings of an already degrading and disappearing ecosystem. While it is true that horses were in North America during the Ice Age, the horses we have "introduced" through colonialism are not a wild species. Equus caballus is domesticated, like feral cats. In the wild, they face hardships like disease and starvation that drastically lowers their quality of life. Long winters or extended droughts mean these horses take up resources that our native ungulates need to survive.
The act itself is what we unaffectionately call a "bleeding heart" act. There is all social and political bias in it, but no science at all.
Horses are charismatic creatures. The public doesn't want to see them killed. However, there is a huge double standard in most regulation regarding horse management. This act protects wild horses and burros from being hunted. It is also illegal to slaughter horses for meat in the USA. As a result, there is a market for people to buy horses for cheap and ship them to Mexico for slaughter. As a result, these animals are paraded around the states for a few weeks, many of which should be put down due to medical issues. It is simply cruel, and frankly it is a bit aggravating to say that our government cares about horses when kill pens exist right under their nose. They only care about their image (ie: "we don't kill the cute horses!"), not the animals themselves or the ecosystems they may damage.
what are your thoughts on prosthetic legs for horses?
Unethical in most if not all cases.
Horses are extremely heavy animals with their center of gravity on 4 really small points. the reason why they do not recover from leg injury well is because they instinctively just use all four of their legs and cannot understand to stay off one. a horse wouldn't understand a prosthetic, and continue trying to act like a "normal" horse, and would likely injure itself further.
a mini is really the only horse that could take one, but even then, it would probably be more ethical to just euthanize.
have you ever seen that meme gif of the two horses running super fast and their legs are moving sort of weird. like a bug?? they aren't galloping, it almost would look like they're just walking, except their legs look odd
i know its edited but can horses actually move their legs like that to get around? because i don't actually believe their legs were edited to move like that, just the pace. i'll try to find the meme if you aren't sure which one i'm talking about but that gif has always weirded me out lol
is it this one, anon?
you're right that it is sped up, but that gait (when slowed) is normal! This is a paso fino horse, bred specifically for a super smooth gait.
this video shows the gait at a more natural pace.

Some custom painted Breyer figures I made! What do you think? I have more I can share if you’re interested!
those are super beautiful! thanks for sharing!
What do you think horses would say if they could speak, but otherwise had the same intelligence?
they would constantly be debating if something is food or a monster, i think
plinkoing the mods ❗❗
IS PLINKOED
sorry for the inactivity, both Jo and I have been a little under the weather! We are going to try to be more active here over the next few weeks, as we get life stuff sorted out!
Have a mabel!
