well, it says "icelandic HORSES and their culture", not "icelandic
PEOPLE and their culture".
so maybe it means, expect the critter to be extra smart, have some
extra gaits, be unlikely to need grain, and to prefer lots and lots of
turnout to a 20-hour-stalled-a-day boarding barn?
--vicka (who spent hours WEEPING in various area barns that offered
"turnout" that was a couple of hours alone in a pen, as long
as the weather wasn't "bad"....different culture i guess...)
