More Information
Pathfinding

Horses naturally seek to avoid (while wandering) harmful blocks such as lava, magma, cactus and sweet berry bushes etc. 

Hostile Mobs

Horses are not a target of most hostile mobs, unless indirectly while ridden by a player (ie shot by a skeleton). They can be direct targets of Zoglins and Withers, and any hostile entities from other mods that use a similar hostility logic.

Fall Damage

Horses take fall damage from any drop greater than 9 blocks. This limit increases to 11 with  GOLD TIER HORSE ARMOR

Damage values were thoroughly tested, but the exact formula appears non-linear and has not been verified from code.

Horses cannot die to fall damage unless their health is below the maximum damage cap of 7.0 D7Nimage.png, or 4.0 D7Nimage.png with gold+ horse armor, or they sustain damage from another source shortly after taking a dangerous fall.


Dragons Breath

Horses may not avoid Dragon's Breath if left unsupervised or idle wandering in the End dimension.

Dragon's Breath is extremely hazardous and can result in a buck and rearing loop that makes it very hard to escape!

Damage (per second) and approx. seconds this amount of damage can be sustained (by health level) until fatal.
