This is such a nice example of direct and specific body language in the wild. It's about territory and what is important to the horses in any given moment in regards to survival. Is it play ? Is it food ? A mare that two stallions vie for? Shelter ? Comfort ? Why do they move each other around ? What can we learn from watching them with each other? When we can drop into these primal urges without the need to give horses human labels, I think we get closer to understanding the real nature of horses. Wild horses neigh, snort, nicker and scream in the wild but predominantly they speak with their body using focus and intention to set clear boundaries and goals. There is an amazing DVD that follows the, now extinct, Camargue herd in France. It's called "Such is the Real Nature of Horses" by Robert Vavras. I would recommend serious about learning the language of horses, especially if you are planning on teaching. This is a must have for the library and its beautifully filmed. xke
