CONDUCT or WILD HORSES.
Fear of “’olves, Speed. of Colts and the
Habit of Shying.
Another animal which, when in .11
state of nature, lives in droves, is the
house. It is almost as defenseless as
ho1‘Ses is attacked by wolves there is
no escape but in flight. 111 its wild
State-the horse’s natural habitat is
on the open plains, not in mountainous
regions, but on the steppes of Asia,
and when attacked by wolves its only
safety lies in its superior speed. If
the young foal were not as swift as
its parents it «would fall an easy prey
to its pursuer, and so, within a few
generations, 'the wild horse might be
utterly destroyed by its enemies. The
curios thing is that the foal is quite
as swift as its parents. When one
looks at it, even in its domesticated
condition, it'secms to be all legs, and
one is surprised to see how easily the
slight body is borne along on those
long legs beside the mother, even
when she is running at her swiftest
rate. In that fact lies the safety of
the Wild horse from destruction, and
the thousands of generations in which
that useful animal have been domesti-
cated have brought no ch-ange‘in the
peculiar conformation of the foal’s
lim‘bs, though it- is no longer needed
for its original purpose. '
Another curious thing is, that one of
the faults of the horse of which we
are apt to complain, we mean the hab-
it of shying, is the survival of an old
habit which was useful and necessmy
when its ancestors were still roaming
wild upon the plains. Then every
horse was constantly on. the outlook
for an enemy, and it did not look only
with one eye. It habitually kept turn-
ing its head in all directions, so as to
indicate the presence of danger. N01
only when a wolf was seen did the
herd take flight; any sound. as of, the
wolf breaking through the long grass.
caused an instantaneous stampede;
and something of that habit still
survives. The horse seldom fears the
objects which it sees unless they ap-
pear suddenly. but the sudden up.
p‘earancc of some light thing driven
by the wind. 01' Some slight sound
that perhaps may not be heard by his
master, may cause an instant and in-
voluntary shy, such as the poor brute
would instinctively make if he were
still upon “the plains. How unjust i1
is, and how utterly stupid, to justify
his terror by whipping him for such :1
fault! To do so is to make him only
so much the rcadier to shy again, i‘e-
membering—and he is sure to- remem-
ber—that, even if there has 'been no
reason for his involuntary shying.
there is something to dread immedi-
‘way to deal with this remnant ,of wild-
ness in the domesticated horse is Ito
stop and let :him feel that there gs
nothing to fear, and so break down
the remnant of his old and perfectly
natural 118-bit of fright from possible
