i suppose in fairness Ghosty, it depends on the type of horse...sure bigger than a litte shetland i suppose (aren't they sweet)...

for arguments sake..we shall say the horse is a big shire plough pulling horse that ploughs the fields in Hampton

Hippo, Giraffe, Koedoe, and even once elephant......
There is a restaurant outside Johannesburg, called Carnivores, who specialize in game meat. All above the board as well, normally their meat comes from game reserves that need to cull herds that grow too big to sustain on the land. Sad , but a neccessary evil, I suppose

Sorry mike, you're wrong.

Let's say the average horse is 16 hands. That's likely a high number -- 15.1 or 15.2 is probably closer -- but I wanted to pick high on average. That works out to 64 inches at the shoulder. Most average in around 1,000 pounds.

The moose can grow to be over 3 metres (8 to 10 ft.) in length and a shoulder height of over 2 metres (5 to 7 ft.). Males can weigh 600 kg. (over 1200 pounds).

The moose wins.

If the plural of mouse is mice,
I think the plural of moose should
be meece!

Usage:
"Look at that bunch of ugly meece!"
