I can't say that I agree re the horses.

They are in excellent condition, and very well cared for. The only negative I'd say about them, (as a horse person), is their hooves are all kept far too long, and that can lead to serious tendon problems, which will shorten their lives drasticaly. For a developing country, they've got pretty good lives, believe me. It was not that long ago in the bush, that horses worked a damn sight harder than they ever do. I'm in my mid-thirties, and grew up with relatives using working horses, believe me, these do fine.
