There is widespread belief in a warm and comforting story which
states the horse is a gentle herbivore. What if a Rosetta Stone had
been found to unlock the dark secrets of the horse s past? An
international multi-million dollar industry serviced by horse
whisperers, glossy magazines and popular culture preaches that
horses are meek prey animals who fear predators. What if evidence
demonstrated horses have slain lions, tigers, pumas, wolves, hyenas
and humans? Contemporary writers have successfully airbrushed
murderous and meat-eating horses out of literature. What if
Shakespeare, Sherlock Holmes and Steve McQueen provided artistic
evidence to refute that claim? Thanks to global equestrian amnesia,
the crucial role played by horses in recent history has been lost
to mankind. What if testimony revealed meat-eating horses had been
used to explore the Poles and photographs had been discovered of
Tibet s blood-eating horses? Deadly Equines is a revolutionary
departure from equestrian romance. It is a fact-filled analysis
which reveals how humanity has known about meat-eating horses for
at least four thousand years, during which time horses have
consumed nearly two dozen different types of protein, including
human flesh, and that these episodes have occurred on every
continent, including Antarctica. Various sources of corroborating
data, including legends, literature, cinema, news stories,
scientific reports and eyewitness accounts are presented for the
reader s investigation. None of these items had been hidden. They
were ignored, misinterpreted or, in some cases, censored. The
result is the first exploration of the horse s hidden history, an
alternative equestrian world populated by forgotten facts,
overlooked evidence and astonishing stories. Amply illustrated, and
containing a map of occurrences, this study challenges the reader
to develop a new under-standing of the horse, one based upon
reason, not fantasy.
