     Have you ever seen a horse with toes? Millions of years ago, horses had many toes. They had four

toes on each front foot. They had three toes on each back foot. These small horses lived in the forests.

Their toes helped them run over the soft, wet ground.

     It was once very hot in the forest. But the weather changed later. It became cold. Many trees  could

not live in such cold weather, so they died and fell.  Open fields took the place of forests. The sun made

the ground dry and hard. Horses began to get bigger with climate changing. On the dry, hard land, horses

needed only their middle toes for running. Their middle toes became hard. After a long time, horses had

only one hard toe on each foot. We call it hoof.
