∙ 6y agoHorse behavior is best understood from the perspective that horses are prey animals with a well-developed fight-or-flight instinct. Their first response to a threat is to flee, although they are known to stand their ground and defend themselves or their offspring in cases where flight is not possible, such as when a foal would be threatened. Wolves are a horse's predators. Mountain lions, bobcats, coyotes, and bears are consider horses' predators, but they hardly hunt horses.
