Herbivorous animals aren't supposed to eat meat.

i had a friend whose horse used to hunt and eat rabbits in the pasture.

A horse from the stable I used to ride at loved grasshoppers. No clue why, but he justed seemed to enjoy catching and eating them.

The Bedouin used to feed their horses locusts as a regular part of their diet. Maybe he was an Arabian?:)

[plushabilities]

Nah, just a fat-assed quarter horse ^_^

Icelandic horses like fish, I'm told by a friend who has them. So do some of the old Norwegian races. The reason for this may be the harsh winters and lack of fodder, but also they may just like the taste. ;)

Mad cow disease was mostly an epidemic because the cow raisers would use ground up dead cow parts from cows who had previously passed(some of mad cow disease) as feed for their current stock of cow.
So, I'm not surprised if a cow would eat meat anymore....
Horses are just evil so that's not surprising.

It was the brain and the rest of the CNS, specifically. Prions are concentrated there and cause all sorts of things.

Herbivores occasionally going carnivorous isn't unheard of, either. They do it when they're low on certain nutrients and minerals. This is my favorite story regarding that. (Oh hey, wonderwanders kind of mentions that below, but here's the link!)

Also, icon is not directed towards you or anyone. It's just the only deer icon I have. 'tarded Pepsi-deer is love.

Totally OT but is it a bad thing that I was randomly wandering this comm. and saw your icon and went "I know that deer!" and THEN looked at the name, figuring I had to know the person? *snicker* Hello there familiar face ^^ (By that I mean both you and Pepsi)

[sithwitch13]

Why hello there!

Oh, Pepsi. I still miss him.
