'''Horses''', called '''Mares''' if female and '''Stallions''' if male, are tameable [[herbivore]]s with a fast movement speed. A Horse will increase the carrying capacity of any [[caravan]] it's part of by {{P|Pack Capacity}} kg. The horse is also the fastest rideable [[pack animal]], applying a {{P|Riding Speed}} speed factor to their rider.

Horses can come in a variety of different colours : White, Gray, Black, Brown, and Light Brown.

== Acquisition ==
Horses can be found in {{Habitats}}. They can either be tamed by a [[Work#Handle|handler]] or self-tame in a random event, and can be bought and sold in other [[Trade#Faction base|faction bases]] and from [[Trade#Bulk goods trader 2|bulk goods traders]]. Horses purchased from traders will be already tamed.

==Analysis==
When slaughtered, a horse yields {{#vardefineecho:baby_meat|{{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*0.2*140}}}}}} meat and {{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*0.2*40}}}} leather as a foal; {{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*0.5*140}}}} meat and {{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*0.5*40}}}} as a juvenile; or {{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*140}}}} meat and {{Meat Leather Curve|{{#expr:{{P|Body Size}}*40}}}} leather as an adult.

An adult mare consumes {{P|Real Hunger Rate}} nutrition per day. If her offspring are slaughtered immediately, a mare will produce {{#expr:{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|baby}} round 2}} nutrition of meat per day, giving a nutrition efficiency of {{#expr:{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|baby}}/{{P|Real Hunger Rate}} round 3}}. If the offspring are allowed to grow to adulthood before they are slaughtered, they will consume an additional {{#expr:{{Nutrition Consumption|{{PAGENAME}}|adult}} - {{P|Real Hunger Rate}} round 2}} nutrition per day, but will instead yield {{#expr:{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|adult}} round 2}} nutrition per day as they are slaughtered, resulting in a nutrition efficiency of {{#expr:{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|adult}}/{{Nutrition Consumption|{{PAGENAME}}|adult}} round 3}}. When considering a population of equal numbers of stallions and mares, these nutrition efficiencies fall to {{#expr:{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|baby|1|1}}/{{Nutrition Consumption|{{PAGENAME}}|baby|1|1}} round 3}} for baby slaughter and {{#expr:{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|adult|1|1}}/{{Nutrition Consumption|{{PAGENAME}}|adult|1|1}} round 3}} for adult slaughter.

Taken as a whole, horses are perhaps the best animal to raise for meat: when slaughtered as adults, they provide even more nutrition than [[cow]]s, and thanks to their large meat yield and longer gestation time than animals such as [[chicken]]s, they are a very low work-intensive animal to rear. Maintaining a population of horses for meat is also be useful for caravans, where they are probably the best pack animal. Their biggest competitors for the niche of a low work, high nutrition efficiency animal would be [[gazelle]]s and [[ibex]]es.

Slaughtering horses is not their only use, however, as they make excellent [[pack animal]]s. They are tied with [[thrumbo]]s for the highest caravan speed bonus in the game, and while horses can hold a good amount of weight (tied for second highest capacity, equal to a [[muffalo]]), thrumbos refuse to carry anything. This makes horses easily the best pack animal in the game, at least until you have a horse for every colonist.
