how many horses?

[icebread]

how many horses are there in the world and do thay outnumber other mammals ? what do you think?

[Prudie]

I really have no idea but would think there are more sheep and possibly cows

[wolf63]

I would have thought that there would be more rodents than anything else.

[Prudie]

Yes wolfe i thought that after, probably rats. Cats and dogs must number more than horses too surely?

[icebread]

yes, i think it is dogs i cant think of anywhere with no dogs

Antarctica.

[Prudie]

I've been trying to google the answer but haven't got the right phrase to search with as the most numerous mammal is clearly man.

[icebread]

the little known 'antarctica fighting grayhound' would count

[wildwood]

Horses don't come anywhere close to being the most numerous.

Mice is the first one that springs to mind. Probably around 2 or 3 mice for every human.

Rats and mice outnumber us here in the UK....so the same elsewhere...
