My bad.

Anyway, to make up for it, a little story:

When I was a kid, we lived down the road from a farming family who had a few horses. One of their mares liked to kill and eat small animals. Once, she got a stray cat.

The grandfather claimed she behaved this way because the family wouldn't let him knock out the horse's "wolf teeth", the tiny little residual canines all horses have.

yeah that story of a horse killing and eating a kitty cat totally made up for it

THANKS

Binro's absolutely right - or maybe the old man he mentions is... whichever:

on my buddies farm, they would never remove "wolf teeth," choosing to feed a steady diet of animal by-products to their best horses: parts from pigs, ducks, chickens, cows, and even a recently deceased mare once, to their "champion horse."

This way, the "champion," and its subordinates, would become stronger, and more aggressive; which greatly aided rodeo performance, and also breeding. Grotesque as it may be, "ravenous" and the "cannibal" horses (especially) would copulate up to 60% more each year and showed vastly improved vigor, compared to straw eaters.
