The Equine Blind Spot
User Rating: / 1
PoorBest 
Horses, ponies, and other equines have a distinct disadvantage when it comes to the range of their sight. As herbivores, the equine range of vision has adapted to cover the areas where predators are most likely to appear. Their eyes are placed on the sides of their heads, allowing them a wide range of view. They can see to the sides and behind just fine, but have lost the ability to see directly ahead.
