Sheep has more efficient microbial fermentation system than horse.
Animals can be classified into foregut or hindgut fermenters, based on the characteristics of their digestive fermentation sites. By definition, a foregut fermenter has a pre-gastric fermentation chamber whereas a hindgut fermenter has enlarged fermentation compartments in the cecum and/or colon. Sheep exhibit foregut fermentation while horse exhibit hindgut fermentation. Foregut fermentation is the form of cellulose digestion seen in ruminants which have a four-chambered stomach while hindgut fermentation is a digestive process seen in animals with a single-chambered stomach. Based on the stomach compartment, foregut fermentation is generally considered more efficient than the hindgut fermentation.
