The only horse in danger at my place is Rosie.  She is pretty easy.  My other good manes and tails can't be caught by strangers.

When I was a kid the neighbor kid was jealous of my 4-H ribbons and cut Betsy's tail hair off and cut a zig-zag in her mane.   It was pretty sad..he didn't really have anything to be jealous of.  She was a rotten pony and all my ribbons were the last place in each class (not that I told him that.. )  It took a while, but it all grew out.

They had a rash of this a few years ago, all tail hair with Paso Finos to make fake tails for QH's and Appy's who don't grow their own.  A good fake tail sells for several hundred dollars.
