People today are just stupid and uneducated when it comes to handling horses. Our collective knowledge of large animal basics have been reduced to a few and the most of the people think large animals are little pets to be petted and fondled. Horses and cattle can maim or kill you in an instant.
This is true. The same applies to dogs, exotic animals, hell even house cats. An animal is just that. No more.
True. We love our horses, but we never completely trust them. We're always wary when walking behind them or doing anything close to their mouths. That's a powerful set of jaws. And they can put a hoof right through you if they have a mind to.
I think this video is pretty funny seeing this horse grab this girl by the hair. The girl thought she could get pushy with the horse but the horse showed her who was the boss!
