    I could go half elf. :)

    I’m very interested in learning how damage to vestigial anatomy can cause lameness. That’s fascinating and makes a lot of sense.

    You’ve sent me down a rabbit hole of horse anatomy, and I appreciate that.

      Trust me you are not the only one who is interested in why this happens. There have been a few papers written on it. But I think the reality is the funding doesn’t exist to explore it. There are a lot more important and money making things to research about horses.
