How to kill Horse
Drops 0-2 leather plus its saddle and horse armor if equipped. It never fights back, but a tamed horse is worth far more alive than as leather.
Behavior
Passive. Horses differ in run speed, jump height and health, and these can be improved through breeding. They can fall 7 blocks safely and take half normal fall damage. Taming (required to breed, equip or control them) works by mounting repeatedly until they stop bucking you. Led with a golden carrot or golden apple. Source: minecraft.wiki Horse.
Taming and breeding
Tame by repeatedly mounting it with an empty hand. Only tamed horses can be bred, saddled or armored.
