According to recent daf yomi an animal that eats food in a public
thoroughfare the owner is not liable because animals have a right to walk
there. (BK 14 ...)

Does the halacha change in modern times when animals don't walk down a
public street.
As an example a horse (with a rider?) w)walks down a street in Manhattan
and eats fruit/vegetables
from an outdoors fruit stand.
Is the owner required to pay? In todays society n would be difficult to say
that it is the job of the vegetable owner to prevent animals from eating
his fruits.

The  questiont is that this is a monetary question and so may be different
from the usual questions of changes in issur ve-heter halachot because of
changing times.
