I’ve seen a lot of talk on the internet about working with wild Mustangs by American trainers. So I want to talk about wild horses. In particular, the study of wild horse behaviour.
People notice when a horse yawns, blinks, changes the position of its ears, or swings its tail. There are so many tiny observations to make that tell a tale about the emotional and mental state of a horse.
I have a question about herd dominance. I have asked many people this question and have not received a clear explanation. So I am putting it out to you in the hope you can help me understand herd behaviour better.
