    I clicked on this video expecting a touching scene of a father meeting his newborn foal. Instead I get THIS. I understand that Looking Glass did it for the safety of the herd, but a little warning would have been nice. In the description at the very least.

    A lot of foals in the wild die this way actually... Stallions will kill foals who aren't fit to survive.
    At the same time, though... If the foal is fit and healthy, stallions will keep the colt in the herd, even if it's not their own. They're not like cats who kill babies in cold blood as soon as they realize it's not their own, but they do it to keep the herd together and safe. Mares would destroy the herd to stay with a dying foal if they had the chance. The stallion was doing the herd a favor and the foal one so predators wouldn't come and kill it. Or if it lasted that long, die of starvation or disease.
    Horses don't get "jealous" they have a smaller mindset and emotion span than humans do. The major instinct of a stallion, who runs the herd, btw... The lead mare guides them, but if a stallion wants to stop her, he does and makes the herd go in a different direction. Just most of the time he doesn't and protects the herd from behind, including adopting foals and colts under 2 into the herd themselves. They want to keep the herd large, they want to have as many eyes as possible and as many foals as possible even if they're not their own. Watch stallions interact with foals that aren't their own, even in the wild, they will act like it's their own. Predators kill off other males young mainly because they're at the top of the food chain, they get their genes spread faster. Hell, in some cases the males aren't even ALLOWED to kill the young because there's enough females to interfere. The non-pregnant females actually battle the pregnant/females caring for cubs for the chance of the babies of surviving in prides even if it's not the males cubs. But this allows new blood into the group for predators. For prey it lessens the chance of the herd/species surviving.

    yes this is part of nature and everything. I'm very aware and I've grown up with horses my entire life. But you probably should put a small disclaimer in the title. There are some people who aren't good at handling this type of thing and should at least be warned before they watch it. That is all :)

  • @SaraNightfire1
    @SaraNightfire1 Před 10 lety +136

    The foal couldn't stand, there's foals who are born every moment of the day, but if they can't stand, they can't follow the herd. Mares are known to stay with their foals even if the herd moves on. It had to be killed to keep the herd together and safe from predators.
    And yes, stallions do adopt foals in the wild. There's actually a part of this documentary where a bachelor takes care of a yearling while the rest of the herd leaves him alone. But even IF they adopted the foal in, the foal couldn't keep up with the herd and would've died anyway. Horses can't stand in one spot for massive periods of time. It was better off it was killed.

      This is true.. but the stallion could have killed him less brutal, don't you think?
      He murdered the foal like a spider eating a bug
      He could have kicked him, he would be dead in a second. it's painful too, but this is brutal killing.

    • @SaraNightfire1
      @SaraNightfire1 Před 9 lety +6

      XxMaritxX
      Foals can still be alive from a kick in the head, and a foal with internal bleeding and hemorrhaging will be much more painful way to die. I was told a story when I was a kid that a foal got kicked hard in the head by his mom because the mare was rejecting him. (She had twins.) He survived, but had severe seizures that nearly killed him for hours until they found out he had swelling inside his skull. This made sure the foal was completely dead and didn't suffer for hours while the mom let the herd move on and they'd both be killed. There's no vet out here, there's no person to rush over as soon as there's something wrong. The horses fend and care for themselves. There's even laws about interfering with these horses lives. That's why the woman who filmed this keeps her respectful distance. These horses have been living in the wild for hundreds of generations. They know how to kill a foal to keep the herd going. They don't kill like cats do as soon as they recognize that it's not their foal, they kill to keep herds together and survive.
      I see your point, but the thing is: The foal would've died anyway and if he did it with a kick, there was a high chance the foal would've lived in a lot more pain than the way the stallion killing him did in the film.

    • @MaritsView
      @MaritsView Před 9 lety +4

      Yes you're right it's just he killed it very aggressily some horses even stallions adopt foals
      you're right l agree, the foal couldn't stand up. thats why he did it
      but some stallions are nice to foals but this one wasn't able to survive and join the herd however the others were ok with the foal

    • @SaraNightfire1
      @SaraNightfire1 Před 9 lety +4

      XxMaritxX
      The horse probably would've adopted the foal if it was an orphan and was able to keep up with the herd. (It's shown later in the documentary, like in the next scene a yearling following a bachelor being in the bachelor herd because its whole herd was killed by a bolt of lightning. Which is unheard of otherwise because yearling's are too young to leave the mother herd and are actually tolerated until 2.)
      I think the horse was unsure, maybe he was still hoping that the foal could stand on his own. Or he was willing to accept the loss and move on with the herd without the mare. It has happened before, a stallion leaving a mare behind because her foal was going to die and he wanted to move on. There's no kindness in the wild, it's keep up with the herd or die. A lot of bachelors get mares this way, actually. If the foal can't keep up with the moving herd or stand, the stallion can and will leave it including the mare who wants to try and care for it. It's shown later a stallion does it to another mare and her yearling. So pick your poison, I guess, the father chased off the stallion, but I think it was more due to him keeping his own herd. They're notorious for stealing mares.
      The stallion did the mare and foal a big favor killing it like he did, even hours the herd would be long gone. She would've been left behind by the herd and the foal would've died anyway. If the mare was lucky, she would've found a stallion or another herd. If she wasn't, she would die herself.

    Usually if a foal doesn't get up within the first hour after birth, there is something severely wrong with the foal. I don't know how long she's been filming them since the foal's birth, but if it's mother was willing to walk away from the foal, then it was probably down long enough for mom to know it was a hopeless cause.

    It's a survival instinct. If you watch the entire documentary, this herd is migrating to a river on top of the mountain. Most foals are able to walk and run within an hour of birth. If this foal can't move, the whole herd would have to stay behind with it and eventually die of thirst.

If you don't then there is something sick about you and it's people like you that is what wrong with our Nation!

  • @Horselings
    @Horselings Před 8 lety +9

    A stallion will kill a new foal that's not its own if given the opportunity. Ranchers have long known to rub Vicks in their pasture stallion's nose to prevent it from smelling a foal from another stallion. By the time the Vicks wears off, the foal will have picked up the smells of the stallion in the pasture, and will then be accepted by the stallion that's not it's sire.
    The title of this video should be changed to reflect what happens in it. It's not cool to 'ambush' viewers into seeing something so horrific without knowing it's coming.

    He met a foal from another band. I've seen zebra stallions do this to perfectly healthy foals while the mare is trying frantically to stop him. Male mamals often kill offspring that isn't theirs out of competition.

  • @HavvahartKL
    @HavvahartKL Před 14 lety +1

    the entire time I was expecting Looking Glass to help the little foal up, especially when the narrator said "I was shocked at what happened next"....but he ended up being a very aggressive stud afterall....

  • @masqueradebell2601
    @masqueradebell2601 Před 9 lety +3

    Looks like the foal was suffering from contracted tendons in his hind legs. Plus the stallion wasn't the father, he was from another rival herd.

  • @MusicEvryDay
    @MusicEvryDay Před 13 lety +3

    I remember this video, I saw it a few years earlier and I thought the same thing. But then I came cross this fact that sometimes stallions will kill a foal if it's in pain, or if it was born with complications. So the stallion puts the foal out if it's misery, besides it probably couldn't have survived anyways, sadly.
    It seems cruel, yes, but sometimes we need to let nature do what she does :)

  • @deeallen5140

    My friend had a stallion pick up a injured foal and he took it to his owners house for the foal to get treatment it needed and the foal was in plaster cast for six weeks and we had to take the foal to the vets and before we took the foal we ask the stallion to put the foals mother in the small yard and to keep her there till we come back from the vet and that stallion did just that and the stallion had killed the dogs who hurt the foal and my friend had teach his stallion to be gentle with his foals and even with foals that was not his as he was a standard bred and he use to race to he had very good breeding that gose to one type that can go long distance race

    His mares spooked at the foal, it couldn’t stand, it was going to attract predators, it didn’t smell like his herd, and it was too weak to stay alive.
    Nature is all about natural selection unlike our human world. The stallion did the foal a favor.

  • @emmawieson2121
    @emmawieson2121 Před 11 měsíci +2

    Shocking, but not surprising. Stallions are unpredictable and if this horse doubts for even a second whether or not he’s the father, this is what he’s going to do if the mother isn’t there to stop him. My neighbor’s stallion broke out of his paddock and tried to attack the foal of my older mare Prima. Thankfully she’s named appropriately and she’s a royal BITCH who was able to kick his lights out a few times before he got more than a single stomp in, and by that point the rest of the herd and my husband and I had noticed and come running to break him off. But this is just what stallions do. It’s hard to watch, but this is what they’ll do if they’re allowed to. And this is why mares are so stupidly protective of their foals.

  • @FilmerOfBobcats
    @FilmerOfBobcats Před 14 lety

    Yes, horses are known to practice infanticide also. This wasn't his foal, and it was going to compete with his foals for resources. I do think the narrator's soft sweet voice made it all the more shocking because you don't see it coming. There's no ominous music to signal something bad is about to happen. Just a sweet songlike voice, then sudden attack that breaks foal's neck.

    No, actually they don't. There is a lead mare and she takes care of the herd. The stallion helps protect the herd. They both have mutual-leadership type, but the mare leads the herd.

If there was SOUND you would here the director telling you that there is something wrong with the foals legs and it is a day or so old and has not yet stood....the stallion realized the foal was sick and there for put it out of it's misery...maybe the owner who posted this thought they were funny or something but it's nature...if you don't believe me look it up...was published by PBS Nature progra
