I've had people yell at me about mares being stupid, that stallions are the only decision-makers in the herd. But the lead mare is super important in wild herds because she knows water routes, and teaches them to other mares. Mares have also been observed returning to stallions of their choice, even when being in another herd (as part of study of monogamy in nature.) The idea that mares just sit around waiting for stallions to tell them what to do when they make up 90% of the herd is really foolish.
I don't know a lot about horses so I could be wrong, but I think the stallion makes more of the decisions about protecting the herd as a whole and the lead mare makes more decisions about the little interpersonal conflicts. I suppose it could vary by their personality as well.
Truth! If there is one thing that I have a hard time listening too is people ranking on mares. Mares indeed play a very important role in a herd, even more so in a wild herd, and when it comes to having a relationship with a mare, a mare will give you their complete heart and soul and devote themselves to you. I have known so many amazing mares.
@@Americandreamfarmssme ❤mares🐎! When i was a groom, at 1 point , my 4 mares & 1 gelding, was known as Susy's Pyscho Ward. 🤣🙃🤪. I got along perfectly w/ the "crazy" 1s. Another time, i had a light "gray" mare who was known as the White Witch Of The Barn! We did have our moments, however, she was MY girl And I HERS!! She made that clear to EVERY1😁🥰. When she left to go back to the farm, i lost my BEST friend that day. But, I've always had a ❤for Mares especially "NIGHTmares" 😁😍
I appreciate you saying that. We humans cannot and should not try to control everything our horses do. Once the horses settle this among themselves it will be settled and over. We have to remember they are prey animals therefore they think differently than we do.
It looks to me that the chestnut may have been upset because the black mare was grazing close to your paint mare. We know that horses protect resources; food shelter water. They were grazing, so it could be your chestnut may be trying to run the black off so she could graze near the paint mare. Since the alpha gets to eat wherever she wants to first, being next to the alpha means getting a pretty darn good grazing spot in your pasture almost all the time. The way the chestnut came into the paint mare’s space and buttered her up, and then snaked her neck and ran the black off, then went and passive aggressively went to the water and waited while almost your whole herd started grazing in that very spot that the black had been grazing. Then the chestnut came back and pushed the black far enough away from the paint to be bossy without getting a harsh reprimand. If I had to guess, the black mare is younger than the chestnut too, and “big sister,” was feeling like the grazing arrangement was unfair.
@@susandivirgilio4551 I believe the narrator said it was a paint, if I’m not mistaken. I know the difference between a pinto coloring and the paint horse breed, as well as the skewbald, piebald coloring, and the tobiano and overo patterns. Thanks for caring so vehemently though.😊
I love how calm and fair Fleur is. She listens to June's complaints about the black horse but says 'you still can't beat up on her'. Toward the end of the clip Fleur seems to support June as much as keep her from the black. Lovely, calm and harmonious herd. 🙏🏽
I’ve noticed that horses love when I’m sweaty. I sweat a LOT, and I’ve known several horses who would touch their nose to my face and breathe deep when I got sweaty enough. Sometimes they would even try to lick my face. I imagine that on top of being delectably salty, it also had a lot hormonal information.
You are the most explanatory on the interaction and I enjoy that. Working in dog rescue for almost 24 years I learned to study body language. You explain in such a concise way and I’ve learned so much. Thank you!
I have never been around horses and your videos are amazing. I had no idea they are so lovely and funny. They are like a family that squabbles from time to time. But are still family.
Very interesting. I was just really expecting Fleur to be more obviously telling June off, but it’s so subtle that, without your explanation, I wouldn’t have realised she was being disciplined. I was involved with horses many years ago, but no-one ever explained their body language and communication.
I had a little pony who was not long castrated I put him out for the summer with about 20 horses he thought he had died and gone to heaven ,he was quickly set right by the head mare ,he came home with much better manners
I saw Fleur(?) give June the "stink eye" and an ear tilt the same way Grandma checks her misbehaving kids at church. The whole "Don't make me come over there...!" vibe. That's when June abandoned everything and focused on chomping grass. I hope they work it out.
@amzlee998 I believe this poster meant personally. Myself, I spent a long time with horses but I am no longer able to have interaction with them. Maybe something in my life will change and I can get back in in some way (I certainly hope so). As stated previously, my parents told me my 1st word was "horse". I was not able to be around them until the age of 8 when I met another girl whose sister had a horse, Aladdin. He was so patient, allowing me to groom him endlessly and, I loved to clean his stall. His owner had a lot of free labor. I only got to sit on him once.
@@susandivirgilio4551 thank you for context i thought it meant horse were like over in general like no more horses for no one ...i apologize for miss interpreting ...thank you tho:)
They don't need to. Their language is much more complicated than ours. I hate when people say that animals can't talk to us. Ok, they can't speak words but, if you are open and pay attention, you can actually understand and even have a conversation. I know because I have.
I had taken my 2 yr old granddaughter to see my friends horses. In the group there was a yearling Morgan a 23 yr old Thoroughbred among others. The yearling was being fresh and the Thoroughbred corrected. Sam told the Thoroughbred to be nice, to Tan Tan. I explained that Tan Tan was being fresh and Teddy was telling him to cut it out. She turned to the yearling, Tan Tan, shook her finger at him and told him, "You be nice to Teddy. He's old." Tan Tan shook his head up and down, put his head down and was submissive. A horse whisperer in the making 😊
I love this story, and thank you for introducing your granddaughter to horses at such a young age and explaining to her what was happening within the herd.
@Americandreamfarm Thank you but I really can't take credit for introducing her to horses as she was already "horse crazy". She so reminded me of myself. My parents told me that my 1st word was "horse". I love that.
Thank you for showing the different aspects of the herd dynamics. It’s nice to see it play out for educational purposes. You have beautiful horses btw! ❤️
Your narration distinguishes the different horses very well, allowing me to keep following your explanation with the visual illustrations and not get lost. Keep up the great work 👍🏼
Thanks for showing us some herd dynamics. This is always such a fascinating subject. I learned a lot from early shows of Think Like A Horse with Rick Gore.
The Alpha mare is NO JOKE, she almost completely decides the fate of it's members, I read once that a mare was being bullied by the herd bc the Alpha mare liked the attention of their human owner ONLY ON HERSELF, and the mare that got too close to the owner to the Alpha's liking pretty much set the whole herd against her and had to be separated, good thing your Alpha wanted order and quiet otherwise things would have gone south pretty quickly for the rebellious ones
What's surprises me is that I could easily read the behavior. I haven't been in a horse in over 50 years and it was rare then: but their body language is so clear! Fascinating.
I appreciate you using descriptions after the names even longer into the video so that I don’t forget you who are referring to. Helps for those is is with less horse backgrounds or who may be bad at names.
This popped up in my channel and I decided to click on it. That’s very interesting! 🤔I never knew much about horse herd dynamics. Thank you for posting this! I learned something. 🧐
I just found you, but Thank you for this! I started self studying animal behavior when I was 15, mostly canine, feline, and primate.. since I've gotten older I've expanded, having source material like this is priceless for someone like me who LOVES horses and wants to learn, but has ZERO access to them. 🙏 From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!!
Fleur seems to be mediating rather than disciplining, she can see that June is angry and she’s encouraging her to take a moment away to calm herself so the issue doesn’t progress any further. Horses are truly a special animal, so much more intelligent and emotionally powerful than people generally realise!
Excellent observation! Yes, Fleur handled this situation as calmly as possible. June knows Fleur can get activated very easily if she pushes her too far.
That’s so fascinating that they breathe each other’s air to absorb the pheromones to understand the emotional state. Humans absorb each other’s hormones, too. We can learn so much about non verbal communication by watching animals. Lovely commentary, thank you. ❤
I had an older Matriarch in my mare band. She was raised in Nevada on a ranch, so she knew a lot more than the rest of them, who were raised in small farm type settings. Most got along great, but if things go out of hand, she would just walk over to those who were arguing, look from one to the other as if to say, "This is at an end, now." And they would both walk away from each other. One young mare was a joker, and she would wait until everyone was asleep, and she was "standing guard", and then suddenly stomp and blow, causing everyone to panic jump to their feet and scatter, thinking they were being attacked by something. The old mare would pin her ears and the young mare would act contrite, but she wasn't. Finally one day, the old mare had had enough of her games, and when she did it again, she ended up suddenly running for it, as the old mare was hot on her tail, biting her butt. She never did that trick again, but she had several others in her little bag of bad child antics.
It is so important, if you have a group of horses, to have enough space and to watch them from time to time, to learn how they interact and to see the importance of the role of the alpha mare. And to let them do what nature tells them. Humans have to stay out. Horses know it better.
Reminds me of a story my art teacher told me back in the 90s about her horses when she had a farm. She had an alpha mare, too, and she later got this stallion who got very cocky and ready to take over - she quickly put him in his place! Don't mess with the alpha mare! 🐎
My boss had a herd of 4 with an extremely confident mare/gelding boss duo. They managed the herd as a perfect team. The other two horses in with them were another mare and a geld9ng who were both onsecure and big bullies. However the boss pair kept that pasture peaceful, and gave the two bully horses a lot more confidence and security :) very cool to see. Both those bosses were great horses too, I miss them a lot.
I love how despite the stereotype, the most aggressive or powerful horse isn't always the alpha. We had a gelding when I was younger who, similar to Fleur, led the herd in a very calm and gentle way.
Growing up on a farm I've picked up on certain behaviors like this. My horse was a white Appaloosa (Pasha) who eventually went blind. We had one horse in particular (Mickey) that would always pick on her and all the others protected her from him. Eventually all we had left was Pasha and Mickey but once it was just the 2 of them he became so caring towards her and picked up the behaviors of the other horses. They used to always stay by her side and would guide her by nudging her in the direction they wanted her to go and would even stop her from walking into things. I think he always cared about her but was jealous of all the other horses.

Never asked these people how herds with no stallion manage to survive?

I love that you're not interfering with the herd dynamic, to many folks would get involved with no idea of whats actually going on! Much respect.

We as humans shouldn’t try to control other humans either but, alas we’re here until our next fresh start.
Great video, very interesting!
That is not a herd ,that is a artificial manufactured grouping of horses I'll matched and I'll grouped for some TIK TOK time

@@j897jthat and they are incredibly sensitive animals. They can sense your heartbeat from around 5 feet away which gives away more than you think
