Horse Report
Horses are herbivore which means they eat vegetation and
only vegetation. There are not so many wild horses living today.
The ones that are living today are the zebras, wild asses, and
Mongolian, All other horses are called domestic horses. A group
of horses is called a herd this is how they travel though
distances in search of food and water or to get away from flies
and mosquitoes that plague them in the hot weather. Horses
can live on grasslands and in small forests. The male horse is
called a Stallion and a female horse is called a Mare. Horses
are also very large running mammals. They can run about 25
miles per hour. Horse can eat grass, fruit and leaves. Their
predators are Humans, Wolves and bears. A little horse is called
a foal. A male horse is called a colt and baby female horse is
called a filly. A young baby wild horse can run fast enough to
keep up with the herd it can do this because their legs are very
long for their size. If the young horse can not run fast after birth
they could easily get killed by predators. The horses that are set
free and escape into the wild they are called feral horses.
When danger is near then the babies will usually stay close to
their mother. The mothers will push their young by moving them
to the center of the group and they are protected by all of the
adults. They use their speed to get away from their predators. A
pony is not a baby horse it is kind of like a small horse. A pony
can grow about less then 58 inches (146cm) tall to the shoulder.
Wild horses can only be found in Africa and in Asia. They eat
grasses these animals are nomadic herbivores. Racehorses can
gallop at up about 42mph (68 mph) is a short way on escaping
predators. Horses can live about 20 to 35 years. The horses are
close related to the zebra and the donkey. A mother can only
have one foal at a time. The coat of a newborn foal is often a
quite light color. After four and five weeks then their bodies will

2. shed and be replaced by a dark coat. Some wild horses can
be found in Canada and in the West coast. Wild horses will
usually stay in groups to keep each other safe from predators.
A colt will become a stallion in about 6 years and fillies will
become a mare when in reaches years as well. The mother will
carry her young inside them for approximately for 11 months. A
few wild horses are clearly the zebra species. Including the
Cape Mountain zebra are endangered and are vulnerable the
Mongolian was extinct in the wild for thirty years ago. Zebras
are also in the horse’s family as well. Wild Asses are in trouble;
too only the only horse that still survives in safe numbers is the
kang horses. There are four hundred onager that are still left in
the world today. They are probably the most critically
endangered, that are being followed by the dzigettai, Kulan
and the African wild ass. Horses can even eat tree bark then
there is no grass to be found. A lead mare in the herd is
responsible for finding the best food and water. Way to Often
a young stallion will challenge the older leader, and the winner
can take cancel of the herd. A Stallion’s responsible is to keep
the herd safe. If the grass is unavailable preferably in an open
pasture it can supplemented with hay. Then all members of the
horse family will feed on grass and shrubs. They can also be
seen in a open country and they are very fast runners. The last
smallest horse is the prewaiski horses they still survive in small
numbers on the Mongolian steppes until the 1960s during the 15
century’s. Horses are the calmest and the most loving animals
around. All people have trusted and agreeable as long as they
are not getting abused or beaten or shouted at. That is what I
know about horses.
