When people say stuff like this, I assume they never lived much outside of cities, and never had much contact with animals, besides pets. Seriously, a horse? Even smaller animals can be a challenge. Most animals are stronger and/or faster than us, and have fangs, claws, etc.

I mean I or you certainly couldn't get it in PvP. But if you can scare it enough so it starts to run, a human (of old times) would win.

If you have trail finding/following skills, you can literally chase it to exhaustion. Humans have one of the best stamina in the animal kingdom. We used to chase animals until they just couldn't move further. Apart from hunting in groups, that was our thing.

Stamina and intelligence, our standing out traits in nature.

Don't forget throwing. Human wrists are so agile and delicate because they need to be for us to throw things as well as we can.

A horse is just an intense will to die on four legs. You can defeat a horse by feeding it after it runs around for a little while.
