It is no secret that horses like to eat a lot! But do you ever wonder how these magnificent equines manage to digest so much food? And how many stomachs do horses have?
The stomach of a horse is a sac, with an entrance at one end and an exit at the other. It is roughly the size of a rugby ball and appears smooth on the outside.
So, as we have learned, a horse has just one stomach. However, the digestive system of a horse is highly adapted to eat a high-roughage diet, and the stomach is an important part of this.
