Wait.... is this picture implying that centaurs eat... through their hooves?!?

Do they...hoover up the grass?

I'm just trying and failing to understand how this would work. Like, do they have weird mouth things on the bottom of their feet? That's so unsanitary, they'd constantly be poisoning themselves.

And how do they EAT with their foot-mouths?! Like, animals need lips, or suckers, or proboscis, or something to insure that the food gets inside their mouth. Do centaurs need to carefully aim their steps so they're stepping on plants at just the right angle?

NONE OF THIS MAKES SENSE. I hate OP for using this picture!!!

What happens when they step on non-food things like poop or bugs or litter? Is it like mushing your mouth into it? Do their hooves have tongues?

THIS MAKES NO SENSE WHAT WAS THE AUTHOR/ARTIST THINKING???

THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. THEY'D MAKE IT ABOUT TEN FEET BEFORE THEY STEPPED IN CENTAUR-SHIT OR A SCUMMY PUDDLE.

THIS IS THE WORST.

Agreed.

oh wow "leg length esophaguses" is something I never needed to read.
Why are they left to die of starvation or a "redemptive act of ritual suicide" if they break a leg? THEY HAVE FOUR.

Cause if they're like real horses, they would actually spend most of their time standing (real horses only spend a small fraction of the day lying down to fully sleep) and that would put too much stress on the broken leg. Splinting can help to a certain degree but you'd really either have to put them in a sling (they do this with really high-value horses, for instance) to keep the weight off or confine them so they don't move very much if you want it to heal well.

So like.

A centaur with a broken leg probably wouldn't be able to keep up with the herd anyway.

could a centaur not simply figure out that lying down or putting weight on the leg is bad, since i doubt they are prey animals

Yeah I got stuck on that part, too.
I get the desire to try and make it more... "sensical", but this is not how you do it, no.

That's how the Andalites eat from the Animorphs series
