    Horses are known to eat small animals. There’s a video floating around of a horse eating a chick (baby chicken).

      So many people seem to not realize this.

      Most animals will eat whatever they can get in their mouth. They may be specialized for some things, but it’s not like koalas won’t eat bugs.

      Especially for, like, typical, common animals. My ducks eat anything. It’s especially fun when one of them catches a tiny snake.

      People also seem to ask me what I feed them a lot and then get confused when I tell them I feed them duck food, as if they don’t feed their dogs dog food and their cats cat food.
