- One of your favorite questions is: “How do horses sleep?” The truth is that horses can sleep both lying down and standing up. They have a special mechanism in their legs called the “attachment apparatus” that allows them to lock their joints and doze without falling. Stare at them for a while and you’ll notice for yourself 🙂
- We often tell you to trust the horses - they know the path they are taking you on and here's why: They are extremely memorable. Theyhave a remarkably good memory. Horses remember people, places, and experiences for a long time. Once they form a bond with a person, they can recognize them even years later.
- And this is the answer to the question: "Does he sense that I'm afraid?" The horses can recognize human emotions. They are very sensitive to body language, voice, and facial expressions. Research shows that they can remember previous emotional interactions with a person.
- Here we answer the question: "How do we understand them?" The horses can communicate through their ears. They use the position and movement of their ears to express emotions and intentions. For example, if their ears are back, it can indicate irritation or aggression.
- For me, an extraordinary fact about them: They have almost 360-degree vision. Horses' eyes are located on the sides of their heads, which gives them an extremely wide field of vision. The only "blind spots" are just in front of their nose and just behind their tail.
