Mammoth, the Giant Horse!
Did you hear about Mammoth the giant horse? This guy was no one-trick pony - he was a Shire gelding named Mammoth, also known as "Sampson." He was born in 1846 and he was so huge that he made Shaquille O'Neal look like a jockey 🏇 Standing over 7 feet tall and weighing more than a small car, Mammoth probably had to call ahead for his horseshoes because they definitely didn't have his size in stock at the local stable 🧲 This horse wasn't just big, he was "mammoth" - and he left a hoofprint in the history books that was larger than life!
