Almost nothing is mentioned about what kind of food horses eat.

I am especially interested in what "wild" (actually feral) horses eat when they are not being fed by humans.

I hope someone knowledgeable about this subject can add this information to the article. 2601:204:F181:9410:8102:6026:28CF:E882 (talk) 16:43, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
