Horses were invaluable companions and steadfast partners on the battlefield, providing transportation and support to soldiers. The veterinary hospital depicted here serves as a testament to humanity's recognition of their duty towards these noble creatures. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of both the horrors endured by humans during war and the profound empathy extended towards animals in need.
