Horses are social animals that enjoy being around other horses. They engage in activities like playing and grooming each other. They also exercise their senses by smelling each other and their surroundings. In a natural setting, horses graze and use their senses of smell, sight, and hearing to stay safe and find food.

Horses that live together communicate with each another mainly through body language. Horses have developed subtle and obvious signals in order to communicate with one another.

Horses that live in herds have many advantages, such as being able to take turns being on the lookout for predators and having more sets of eyes and ears to detect them. Horses that are kept alone are more likely to be stressed due to a lack of companionship.

Horses are reactive animals by nature and will run at the first sign of danger. However, with proper training, this behavior can be overcome to make horses and riders/handlers safer. It’s important to remember that if a horse feels trapped, it may resort to kicking, striking, or biting if it can’t escape. When handling a horse, try to read its body language and avoid putting pressure on the animal to the point where it feels it needs to escape or defend itself.
