I DID NOT KNOW...

I did not know a horse could bring people into your life that end up meaning the most to you.
I did not know a horse could make the hardest days of your life bearable.
I did not know a horse could teach you to put others first.
I did not know a horse could remind you time and time again that your gut is always right.
I did not know a horse could break your heart.
I did not know a horse could pick you up when you have fallen apart.
I did not know a horse could teach you to dream again, after you thought it was not possible.
I did not know a horse could make you believe in yourself.
I did not know a horse could teach responsibility, work ethic, and dedication.
I did not know a horse could make you believe in something when no one else does.
I did not know a horse could make you learn to forgive and forget.
I did not know a horse could humble you faster than you can say humble.
I did not know a horse could make you a winner.
I did not know a horse could also teach you how to lose gracefully.
I did not know a horse could instill patience in you.
I did not know a horse could make you listen better.
I did not know a horse could give you their heart.
I did not know a horse could change your life.
I did not know a horse could do all these things...
but now I know.

👀 Did you know horses have some of the most fascinating eyes in the animal kingdom?

🐴 With eyes set wide on the sides of their heads, horses have nearly 350° vision—they can see almost all the way around them.
🐴 They use monocular vision (each eye seeing separately) but can switch to binocular vision to focus on distant objects.
🐴 Horses see the world in shades of blue, yellow, and green—but can’t distinguish red or purple hues like we can.
🐴 And no—blue-eyed horses are not more prone to blindness.

Wild horses’ vision is just one of the many ways they’re perfectly adapted to life on the open range. 🌿🏜️
