What are they made of? Is there a rough equivalent body part for humans? Are there differences between hooves on different animals such as cows and horses? Why can wild animals get by without hoof maintenance while farm animals do?
A farrier once told me that horse hooves are just like our fingernails. We need to trim them or they get dirty and uncomfortable. Just like it doesn’t hurt to trim our fingernails it also doesn’t hurt the horses.
