What an uplifting photo! I too thought that horses were automatically put down if they broke a leg. After a little research I learned that it isn't the case that a horse is automatically put down, but it very much depends on the type of fracture incurred.
A horse's legs are too slender to support the power and weight of an injured horse. Sometimes it just isn't possible to expect a fracture will heal even if the money was available for the very best care in the world.
