The technical name for horses is Equines, which derives from their Latin name, Equus caballus. Donkeys, zebras, mules, the hinny and the Onager that is recognised as the Asian Wild Ass too, are very similar to horses.

Equines have been domesticated (trained) and reared by humans for more than 6000 years. They are generally very easy going and can be housed jointly with other creatures as friends – for example, sheep, goats, donkeys or cattle. They can get really emotionally involved with smaller animals, like cats. Dogs must be well trained and behave themselves to prevent accidents. This is because horses are certainly frightened by dogs.

The horse, technically known as Equus ferus caballus, is one of two surviving strains of Equus ferus, or the crazy horse. It is a solitary-hooved animal, which belongs to the taxonomic clan Equidae. The horse has advanced over the last 55 million years; it has developed from a tiny multi-toed creature into a bulky, single toed animal. Humans started to domesticate (train) horses approximately 4000 BC, and their disciplining is alleged to have been widely prevalent by 3000 BC. Horses in the breed of caballus are well trained; however, certain domesticated inhabitants dwell in the wilderness as feral horses. These feral populations are not really wild horses, because this term is used to explain horses that have not ever been trained, like the threatened Przewalski’s Horse. The Przewalski’s Horse, is a distinct breed, and is the only lasting real wild horse. There is a huge amount of specific terminology that is used to explain equine-related views, incorporating everything from anatomy physiology to life stages, size, colours, markings, breeds, locomotion, and behaviour.

Horses canter and bolt cry and snigger, encapsulating our minds and our emotions. Without a doubt, they are supposed to have accomplished things in abundance to revolutionise human history than compared to other domesticated creatures. At one time, they carried travellers to fresh borders and huge militaries to enormous victories.

Although their triumph days might have ended, these hoofed animals carry on mesmerizing humans (see the NATURE program HORSES for more details). From the grasslands of Mongolia, where youngster’s chase each other at accelerated paces balanced on horses about ten times their size, to the countryside of Georgia, where individuals restricted to wheelchairs discover new autonomy on a saddle, HORSES emphasises the ample characters enacted by this multi-gifted creature of load. Also, there are infrequent sights of the world’s highly threatened horse, and an internal glance at the skill of the horse tellers, the coaches who via their soothing stroke can change a crazy bucking bronco into an elegant display horse.
