It is the same thing for animals as well. They are very protective of their children. For example, a mare horse would do everything to protect her child. We have seen young foals who have been in dangerous situations and their mothers have done their best to protect them at all costs. After all, that is what a good parent always does and this mare in the video below proved to be a good parent.
A family spotted a baby foal in a stall and asked to pet him. The foal was scared of the people and he started crying. He let out a little neigh and there came his mother running for him. The family recognized the danger, to their credit, and moved out of the way. They did the right thing. The mother was following her natural instincts and came to protect her little foal.
The sound that her hooves were making was terrifying but when you see the purpose of it you understand and it makes this moment even more adorable. She is willing to do anything to protect her foal. It is an amazing scene when the mare comes at full speed and she gets together with her foal.
Those people were really respectful to these amazing creatures and they totally understood the mare’s purpose. Thank god the mare did not become aggressive to any of these people and that is what matters in a situation like this. Please have a look at the video below and let us know what you think.
