* Breeds: There are many horse breeds, from tiny Shetland ponies to massive draft horses.
* Age: Foals are much smaller than adult horses.
* Individual Variation: Even within the same breed, horses can have different heights.
To get a better idea of a horse's size:
* Look at specific breeds: Research the average height of different horse breeds, usually measured in "hands." One hand is equal to 4 inches (10.16 centimeters).
* Measure a horse: If you're near a horse, you can measure its height from the ground to its withers (the highest point between the shoulder blades).
Let me know if you have a specific breed in mind and I can help you find their average height!
