I should've known, those giant beasts have always scared me. My instincts were telling me something...

Edit:

Welp, looks like Deadly Equines: The Shocking True Story of Meat-Eating and Murderous Horses has got the answers we're looking for.

Thanks so much, Dudley! Great engaging in a lively conservation on this important topic. You might want to check out my book at www.amazon.com/dp/1461068983 and in the preview you can read quite a bit of it possibly into Ch I where I present the evidence on the more recent horse in North America and the possibility that horses didn't go extinct here.

This may seem silly, but "On the Origin of Species" by Charles Darwin. It's about evolution (obviously), and it's actually a pretty easy read. It's also fascinating to read from the guy who discovered something that changed the face of biology.

For something super specific, there's this: http://www.amazon.com/Coyotes-Behavior-Management-Marc-Bekoff/dp/1930665423

I'm saving up for it, and I'm very excited to read it. If you click the editor's name, you'll find several other books he's edited, which range from animal behavior to straight up biology.

Listened to an excellent interview with the author of this book... http://www.amazon.com/Deadly-Equines-Shocking-Meat-Eating-Murderous/dp/1590480031

Enjoy!

Has no one ever read Meat Eating Horses? Though it seems that most meat eating by horses is because of our own animal husbandry and in a lot of instances because a completely vegetarian diet would have resulted in easier deaths for horses that were brought to the most extreme climates. Well, and then the war horses but that was just us teaching them to be dicks.

Are you so sure about equines?

Also, one should book dragons under extreme omnivore, considering their geophagy.
