Food plants of animals and their seasonal choices
The article notes that herbivores eat a limited set of plants, varying by season. It cites Linnaeus experiments in Sweden with 483 plant species, detailing how cattle, goats, sheep, horses, and swine accepted or rejected numerous species, and mentions specific plants like poke weed, Myosotis, spurry, and astragalus. It concludes that poisonous plants are not typically eaten when natural forage is abundant, and draws parallels to habit formation.

General Purpose Horse Breed Pursuit and Wolf Crisis
The Wisconsin Experiment Station notes no breed yet matches a true general purpose horse. The Vercheron comes closest, but modern feeding has made it a draft horse rather than versatile. A dedicated general-purpose breed could emerge through careful bloodline selection and long-term breeding, though short horse lifespans and low profits hinder progress. Cuban bloodhounds are promoted to attack wolves and coyotes threatening western sheep ranges.

The Corn Belt and Deep Rooting of Corn
The Corn Belt spans regions with deep soil ideal for corn, enabling high yields and extensive rooting. Deep roots reach four feet, drawing moisture and nutrients from lower soil layers, aiding drought resilience. The soil’s depth and composition explain why corn thrives there and can access moisture from depths unavailable to shallower soils.
