Why don't horse owners have to clean up their pet's mess?

Went hiking in a county park. There were signs about dog owners cleaning up their dog's mess. However the signs for the horseback trails never expect the owners to clean up after their horse's mess, which is much larger and left right on the trail.

We have the same problem where I live, heaps of horse muck on the pavements from anti-social horse riders illegally riding there.

A local playing field is sometimes used for dog shows or horse and pony shows. The dog owners clear up after their dogs but the field is almost unusable, due to all the horse muck left, after a horse and pony show..
