Open grasslands per se have no direct relationship to elevation, because they can have different elevations in different regions of the world, having a distribution near the sea level to the extreme high plateaus.

I sure the reason the author needs to point this out is because ... Well really I'm not sure why unless he doesn't believe his own BS.

The Tibetan Plateau has gradually risen since the Indian plate collided with the Eurasian plate at about 55 Ma.

Sounds kinda kinky :)

What is 55ma?

The title mystifies me. Please explain why or how a rise in elevation relates in some way to the construction of the hoofs of horses.
