Never been bit by a horse but I’ve been throwed more than once. As a kid I got kicked by one of those Jesus donkeys. Ain’t nobody got time for no damned donkey but a mule can be like a jeep for getting over rough ground. Not very elegant but sure and steady. My mare Hell Bitch bit a Mexican wrangler just the other day. She has never tried to bite me but I’m pretty sure the thought has crossed her mind.
