Happy Birthday to all our horsey friends! ??
⠀
On August 1st, all Australian (and southern hemisphere) horses mark their official birthdays. The date is based on the equine breeding season and is used to standardise horse racing, which uses the date to put horses in their age grades for races.⠀
⠀
We have some weird and wonderful items in the #MAAScollection including this set of painted plaster casts of horses’ teeth which show the stages from birth to an “advanced age”. They were purchased by the Museum in 1885 and displayed in the Animal Courts in the Museum’s old building in Harris Street, Ultimo. Horses were a vital part of people’s lives in the 1800s and early 1900s and the ability to determine a horse’s age was an important skill when considering buying a horse. ⠀
