Facts About Horses Are you already fond of horses at an early age? If you do, you will definitely enjoy the facts that you will learn about the strongest animal we know. How Horses Are Born Just before giving birth, a young pregnant horse gets into the right position. During its delivery, you will immediately see the first front foot coming out, followed by the second foot, then its nose. After the head is seen, the shoulders and the head are next, and this is known to be the most difficult part. After this challenging part, the hind legs and hips will come out easily until the baby horse, which is called colt (boy) and filly (girl) is completely out. Popular Terms for Horses Horse lovers often use terms which only them can understand. For someone, who is interested about horses, here are some common terms that you need to learn: 1. Aged - this is what you call a horse that is more than nine years old already 2. Backyard horse - this is a kind of horse that does not live in a barn. Instead, it lives with its owner or master. 3. Colt - this refers to a young horse that is less than four years old and has not been castrated yet. 4. Dam - this is what you call the mother of the horse 5. Filly- this refers to a young female horse that is below four years old 6. Foal- this is a baby pony or horse that is still under its mother's care 7. Mare - this is what you call a female horse that is already more than four years old 8. Stallion - this refers to a male horse that hasn't been castrated and already more than four years old How Old Does a Horse or Pony Get? Unlike people, horses only have short lifespans. Normally, a horse reaches 30 years, but it can still extend up to 40 years old. To determine its age, veterinarians examine and check the incisors (teeth) of the upper and lower jaws. It is very normal to talk about a horse' speed. The slowest speed is called walk and a bit faster than this is called trot. If you see a little faster than a trot, it is called canter and the fastest speed is called gallop.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A step-by-step guide to revolutionize your diet and launch you on the path to long-term health in just one month, written by Ocean Robbins, CEO of the Food Revolution Network. The 31-Day Food Revolution is an eater's guide to liberation from a toxic food world. It offers readers an action plan to eating food that is healthy, humane, sustainable, and delicious. In recent years, we have seen people beginning to seek out more wholesome and natural diets to combat ill health, but with all the information available out there, finding the right path to health can be confusing and frustrating. In this book, Ocean Robbins, CEO of the Food Revolution Network, reveals the dark secrets the food industry doesn't want you to know that are making you and the people you love sick. He then shows you how, in just 31 days, you can use the healing power of foods to heal your gut, lose excess weight, dramatically lower your risk for diseases including cancer, heart disease, dementia, and diabetes - and contribute to a healthier planet. This is not a typical diet book: it doesn't fit into a particular 'diet' like vegan, paleo or sugar-free. Rather, it aims to educate the readers about the impact of nutrition on their long-term health, and does so from a strong scientific foundation. The steps in this book have been field-tested on the Food Revolution Network community and have been proven to work in medical studies as well as in Robbins' own body of work. But these are presented in a digestible way, so that however little knowledge you have of food and the food industry, you can begin to make healthier choices right now. The book is divided into 31 chapters - one for each day, to help readers adopt new healthy habits until they became the new normal.
