made a quick icon for my new fursona

How tall is Shirecorn?

It occurs to me that I never specified how tall my fursona is. Horses are typically measured in Hands, which is about the width of an adult's hand, measured from thumb to pinky and stacked like so:

The hands reach up to the withers (shoulder) of a horse, rather than measuring up to their head.

The top of the withers is actually determined by the long bones that protrude off the back of the spine, rather than the upper edge of the horse's shoulder blade. It's a bit of a misnomer to call them bones, as they are part of the vertebra, not joints connected to it.

You have spines too, but yours are not as pronounced as those of ungulates (hoofed mammals) nor as epic as spinosaurus.

in horses, the muscle that lays on top of these bones determines the height of the withers.

A "Hand," understood as a standardized unit, is equal to 4 inches, 10.16 centimeters. Modern competitions and the professional horse world measure exact to the withers height in centimeters, but your average cowboy still talks in hands.

The first horse is 14 hands, so 56 inches/142.24 centimeters at the shoulder. That's on the smaller end of average for a horse! For those whose perception of height is compared to their own, that's 4'8, so the shoulder is below the top of most peoples' heads.

The tallest horse breed in the world is the shire horse.

These massive horses can reach 19 hands tall! To make it even, let's have both our guy and our shire be 17.5 hands tall. That's 5'10, 178 CM at the shoulder and top of withers.

Where does Shirecorn fit into this?

I represent myself as a shire unicorn with fluffy feet and a blueish coat. Until today, everyone has had to guess my height whenever drawing or picturing me. I haven't really gotten into it because I knew I needed to explains hands, withers, and average horse heights. But with all that out of the way, I have created a height chart to show Bo vs a typical shire, vs a human.

Don't get distracted by the typical shire silhouette. I just threw that in there to show how I measure up.

This is me:

That's right, I am 1 hand tall. That's 4 inches, or about 10 cm, measured at the withers! If you use the top of my horn, you'll get the wrong height.

But now that you know how to measure a horse, you can picture me in all my Shirecorn glory.

Go ahead, put in pocket. Take on adventure. Set me free. Stack shirecorns up to measure horses and humans alike. The power is in your hands.

not finishing this one. lemon having a swim

hey i love your fursona, what dinosaur is he?

also what are ur fav dinosaurs and dinosaurs/dinosaur facts u wish more ppl new about

He's a 冠龍五彩 (Guanlong wucaii)!

favorite dinosaurs, uhhh... guanlong obviously, maniraptoriforme ("raptor") dinos in general, parrots in general, doves and pigeons, white-rumped shama, penguins in general, phorusrhacos, yi qi, spinosaurus for its history, stegosaurids for the disproven hindbrain theory LMAO.

facts? people used to theorize that a mystery organ-like lump in the back end of a stegosaurus was a second brain for controlling the back legs and tail. I think the history of paleontology is so fucking funny at times and it's a tragedy that people don't seem to care for it.
