The presence of a single hoof is a characteristic of the family to which the horse belongs, the Equidae family, composed of about eight thousand species of animals, including donkeys and zebras.
The presence of odd fingers is a characteristic of the Perissodactyla order, which also includes rhinos and tapirs, for example.
Free-living horses feed on pasture, usually a food rich in fiber but poor in energy. Therefore they have to eat small portions of food several times a day. Thus, these animals spend about 16 hours of the day feeding themselves.
This time spent on feeding decreases in animals kept installs, as their food is differentiated and prepared to meet their nutritional and energy needs. Animals kept in stalls usually feed on pasture, hay, silage, feed, supplements, among others.
The horse is the presence of a simple stomach (monogastric). So although horses are herbivorous animals, they are not ruminants.
The horse has a reduced stomach, and the digestion of fibers and their absorption occurs in the large intestine, mainly in the caecum and large colon.
The small intestine, of moderate size, is responsible for the absorption of nutrients from the feed.
