Why Does a Horse Whinny and Everything Else You Ever Wanted to Know
Omschrijving
As a zoologist and a lifelong student of animal behavior, Desmond Morris approaches the horse world in an unusual way, dealing with topics often ignored in equine literature. In addition to examining details of behavior, Dr Morris considers such questions as why horseshoes bring good luck, why we don't eat horses, why jockeys are allowed to whip their mounts and why we call a bad dream a nightmare. And for punters everywhere, he applies his zoological mind to the all-important question of why some horses run faster than others.
