5 Evolutionary Remnants Every Horse Person Should Know (Especially #5)

Your horse is carrying evolutionary secrets from 55 million years ago. In this video, I reveal 5 fascinating remnants that prove how horses evolved from small, multi-toed forest dwellers into the speed machines we know today. 🐴 THE 5 EVOLUTIONARY REMNANTS: 1. Chestnuts - The ghost toes on your horse's legs 2. Splint Bones - Hidden remnants of ancient side toes 3. The Single Hoof - Evolution's masterpiece of speed 4. Tooth Structure - Built-in grinders that never stop growing 5. Collarbone - The secret to your horse's stride (and WHY this matters for training!) 🔬 SCIENCE-BACKED INSIGHTS: Discover why understanding these remnants isn't just fascinating - it's essential for proper training. Learn how the missing collarbone creates a muscular "sling" that affects your horse's ability to carry weight, engage their core, and move with true collection. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Hook 01:03 Introduction to Horse Evolution 01:48 REMNANT #1: Chestnuts – The Ghost Toes 02:55 REMNANT #2: Splint Bones – The Hidden Toes 04:16 REMNANT #3: The Single Hoof – The Ultimate Adaptation 05:31 REMNANT #4: Tooth Structure – The Grass Grinders 06:55 REMNANT #5: Collarbone – The Freedom to Run 07:59 Training Connection - Thoracic Sling 09:25 Conclusion 💡 WHY THIS MATTERS: Understanding your horse's evolutionary biology helps you become a better rider and trainer. When you know WHY your horse's body works the way it does, you can train more effectively and with greater empathy. --- 📚 SCIENTIFIC SOURCES & REFERENCES: *Horse Evolution:* • MacFadden, B. J.
