Anyone else think it looked like the horse was stuck on train tracks?

I see you've played bridgey horsey before.

When someone's kid is laying in the aisle at the store and their parent doesn't care.
GapingAnalCavity
It's the modern version of the snake pit. If the child makes it out without becoming a consumerist husk, he gets to become a man.

Poor thing that bridge was scary
SmoothSaline
What kind of doggo is that
Sylviastout
Is there a "correct" way to help the horse out? I know theres only so much one can do in that situation, but does it hurt it's neck? Obvious
Sylviastout
-ly you don't want to get kicked, but how or where would/should you hold it to get it out
usercide
Their neck is thick. It's where a pulling collar would be harnessed. Approach from the head so that they can see you coming. The back legs..
usercide
...kick the hardest, which is another good reason to approach from the front.
Vcinasia
Looked like mom was cool with the guy, once he picked up foal/filly, she was like 'wait wait wait where you going with thatohokayitsokay'
bigbowliofravioli
I did this today. But it was with a mouse that was stuck on a train station.
NoLongerFoamingWolffo
That is adorable and I like you.
thxph
I also did that, three years ago, but it was a possum on the road, and it was already dead. (I just didn't want the corpse to get squished.)

Best comment. Destroy the shitlords.
almostsomething182
That's exactly why the US gov't had to slaughter a bunch recently. They're also trying to train them and adopt them out.
milyhow
Either put them down or they die a slow miserable death from starvation
almostsomething182
Unfortunately, yes. That's why they want people to take them instead. Saw a great documentary on Netflix,
almostsomething182
A few guys rode "wild"(born wild but tamed) horses from Mexico to Canada.
spinneydoo
It's not worth the time and money to save those horses. If they are that emaciated, put them down. Some horses were just destined for meat.
ValoSaurusRex
almostsomething182
They've been trying to adopt them out since long before they had to slaughter some. Spread the word, they're good horses.

Is there a website or something I could look up and maybe post?

Skeetskeetnojustkiddingthatsgross
...what?
almostsomething182
Same reason we have hunting season. Their population just keeps growing, they eat the population into starvation.
Skeetskeetnojustkiddingthatsgross
I appreciate you explaining! I had no idea. I saw a small band a couple weeks ago - beautiful and healthy, I'm in AZ though so smaller pop.
almostsomething182
Lemme go back further: the US recently had to slaughter thousands of horses. They were forced to this because of the large population of 1/?
almostsomething182
Wild mustangs roaming the central United States. There were so many with so little territory (often blocked by fenced private land) that 2/?
almostsomething182
They were eating so much grass, it was starving the whole population/would be soon. They tried capturing and selling them cheaply 3/?
TheGirlWhoCouldNotEven
Considering how much destruction and death we cause to the animal kingdom it's a miracle they would even let us look at them.
tobucks
And those little guys aren't exactly light, either.
jarjarbinkswasthebestcharacterinstarwars
Still possible to pick them up and carry them though, had to do it once after the mare gave birth in the field and the foals legs were bad

Is nobody going to talk about how skinny and underfed they both are?
cleverbeans
There are several comments higher up talking about how they're emaciated which is horse lingo for malnourished.

Not just horse lingo.

Underfed? They are wild horses, difficult to change that

itsybitsyspider
I understood these are wild horses or at least semi-wild
EgoSumRidentiCanis
Yeah but she's emaciated. She might be sick. They'll likely die without intervention.
ILaughUntilICry
Also she might be old. Older horses even well maintained domestic ones have a hard time keeping weight on when they're older.
AukyOH
Yeah I've struggled with that with some of my more geriatric charges. Poor old ladies.
thegriffin88
She looks like a feral, plus that foal is still nursing and drawing away nutrients.
Aibell125
Lactation is the hardest thing, physically, that a horse can do. Harder than racing, cattle driving, endurance races, anything

Do you ever wonder if animals can tell that some people are trying to help?
cleverbeans
I met a guy on the psych ward, all black dress, face tattoos, sold drugs. He could just hold his hand out and birds would come to him. 1/2
cleverbeans
Like some goth Disney princess. When I asked him how he did it he just said "animals can just tell if you're going to be good to them."

Have been kicked by a full grown horse and man let me tell you that shit left a horse bruise on my thigh for amonth

You speak truths! That the same place I was kicked and then the damn colt bit me in the leg.

Filming yourself doing a good deed doesn't seem bad ass to me. It seems cringey.
Icallitbullshit
It feels good to see people helping. Someone needs to record it though.
Hydr0p0nik
Maybe he was filming in case something bad happened. Regardless.. he helped a animal in need.
somtin
Got kicked in the calf by a mare when she got stung by a yellow jacket when I was cleaning her shoe. Had a bruise for 2 weeks.
TheGreatBlueHeron
Yeah, and it's great he did this, but man his animal handling skills are not good.
Buckbeak1486
I got kicked in the balls by my sister's horse when I was 5. I was too embarrassed to cry even though there was no one around.
WardSharlow
Were you trying to fuck it or something? That would be pretty embarrassing.
Buckbeak1486
No, but I did keep poking him in the withers (tendon connecting hind leg to stomach); which irritated him. Lol
RosegoldEverything
The withers are the top point of the shoulders.
Buckbeak1486
That soft muscle on the bottom of the thigh they have. I seriously thought it was called the tendon. Sorry.
Hydr0p0nik
Damn, I woulda passed out from that pain
Mycatisbetterthanyourcat03
foal hooves hurt like a bitch! hell, getting kicked by either isn't fun at all

Haven't been kicked but I hot kneed in the forehead, had a horn for two weeks.
boingboingboingboing
Yeah you can tell he doesn't want to be anywhere behind the little guy :-)
yeayeahyea
Got kicked when I tried using a breast pump machine on a mare to get milk for her foal who couldn't nurse yet. tbh I was just sleep deprived
Crabsforeveryone
Kicked by a foal in the arm. Sharp pain. Kicked in the belly by a gelding, was on the ground, suckin' wind. Horse looked at me...
Crabsforeveryone
Laying on the ground like " why are you down ther??"
IAmTheCutestOfBorg
I got kicked in the forehead by a foal once, and kicked in the stomach by a cranky mare. Horses are awesome.
Hydr0p0nik
Geez, did you get a scar on your forehead?
IAmTheCutestOfBorg
No. I was 8 years old, and it popped me while it was walking in front of me. I was lucky! Just bruised...and maybe some other damage...

I assume the horse knows and trusts the guy. Although she is remarkably calm for having her foal be in trouble regardless.

She could kill that guy by rolling on him. Horses are fuck huge.

Thank you! Every time I see this video I wish that someone would feed her and maybe deworm her too

I always thought that even mothers understood the fact of babies needing help and receiving it. Except bears. Fuck them. Assholes.
IAintCheatin
And geese. Geese are assholes
Loominati
from what ive heard/experienced, moose and geese are far worse than bears. Bears can be okay with it if the circumstance calls for it (1/2)

But there's rarely a time that it does, tbh, because bears are just so strong.

Oh. Moose. Bear. Worse than geese.

Nothing much to tell. You are in danger as soon you enter in the line of sight of a bear mother with cubs. Just run.

Yeah, that's not great advice! If you know you're in bear territory, carry spray or bangers, shout, play dead, then fight as a last resort!
