Answers:
Hmmmm---- strange test, where are questions 3,4,6 and 7? and I think some of the questions don't have a correct answer to them. Maybe its a trick!
1) Its easiest to determine which leg is causing a limp at a trot in most horses and its normally easiest to determine when they are lunged in a circle (often worse one direction than the other) and often most noticable on hard surfaces (depending on the cause, some are worse on deep footing)
2)Stop going from a canter to a walk depends somewhat on how your horse is trained, so this is a trick question. My show horses move down a gait with none of your options, they react to voice cues first. I say "walk", I stiffen my hips and quit following their motion, I shift my weight back slightly in the saddle and if they are still moving forward I then pull back slightly on the reins. Normally all I have to do is say "walk". I suppose the right answers to your are B and C.
5) None of the above. The most frequent cause of death in adult horses in colic. None of the above answers come even close to colic in deaths. I base my information on satistics from my local Equine insurance agent.
8)Deep soil can fatigue tendons. The frog does have an important shock absorbing role. Hard soil can cause heavy impact and injury joints, therefore contributing to navicular.
There's my answers. Even if they don't totally agree with your questions!

A: Make the horse trot
C: Straighten the body
B: Diarrhea I would say colic and this is the closest.
B, D, E.
I like your test questions there fun and it makes me think all over again. PS I never played this Horseland game but I don't agree with the choice of answers for C, and D. I agree with everybody else. Question C depends on your horse and Question B, I say old age or colic as number one answer but if has to be chosen I say B.

A
B and C
B
E,B and The frog does have a shock absorbing role :]

Let me guess you're another Howrse player?
My little cousin plays it.
1)a
2)b
3) b? I agree with other answers Colic is #1
Multiple - would go with b
Hope you make it to the next level.

To determine where a limp comes from-
You A.make the horse trot
To slow from a canter...I don't do any of those that you listed. Most of my horses are on voice cue or automatically slow when I lean back on my seat.
Your number 3 question is also incorrect seeing as old age is still the #1 cause of death in equines and then is followed by colic in 2nd.
I would have to say that B and E are almost correct.

OMG, this is all from the game Howrse! I'm taking this test on it right now! ha, loser.. lol jk.
