Studies have indicated that horses perform a number of cognitive tasks on a daily basis, meeting mental challenges that include food procurement and identification of individuals within a social system. They also have good spatial discrimination abilities. [96] They are naturally curious and apt to investigate things they have not seen before. [97] Studies have assessed equine intelligence in areas such as problem solving, speed of learning, and memory. Horses excel at simple learning, but also are able to use more advanced cognitive abilities that involve categorization and concept learning. They can learn using habituation, desensitization, classical conditioning, and operant conditioning, and positive and negative reinforcement. [96] One study has indicated that horses can differentiate between "more or less" if the quantity involved is less than four. [98]

Horses are grazing animals, and their major source of nutrients is good-quality forage from hay or pasture. [237] They can consume approximately 2% to 2.5% of their body weight in dry feed each day. Therefore, a 450-kilogram (990lb) adult horse could eat up to 11 kilograms (24lb) of food. [238] Sometimes, concentrated feed such as grain is fed in addition to pasture or hay, especially when the animal is very active. [239] When grain is fed, equine nutritionists recommend that 50% or more of the animal's diet by weight should still be forage. [240] Gifford, Angela (2000) [1998]. "Working Horses in Forestry".
