Can we just applause your horse for a minute? What an amazing horse.
❤️❤️❤️ I'm so proud of her
Yeah that horse is so amazing
Very well behaved to not buck the rider off and then bolt
My horse would have prob thrown me off and went to battle with that horse, considering he used to be a stallion
@@bobcharlie7982 Right, I don't know much about horses but I was surprised that she waited until her ride was off of her to start trying to fend off the stallion.
You got a he'll of a mare protecting herself and you like that what a great horse .
a he'll? thats just he eel but together the word ye is looking for is hell
That mare did some good kicks when they reach the gate.
Hell* dumbass
@@mr.stealyogirl4078 bro chill. It was probably auto correct. It was one damn word, ya fucking snowflake.

Can you imagine if that had been a couple of kids out for a ride? You ladies did a terrific job of keeping your heads. So glad nobody was hurt.
Yeah, this could've been a very tragic situation. I was stressed just watching, I'm glad these ladies and their horses are okay :(
@@endeavor1664 exactly what I thought. I already have a case on my hands, which wasn't my fault, but it still haunts me. The kid that I was with, on a very pleasant ride that is, got injured and thown from his mare when we were on the public trail. Someone hadn't tightened the gate enough and he got out on the public property. Unfortunately for this stallion, this mare was very protective of my student, which resulted in her Injuring the stallion. She hit him right in the head. I think she did some major damage because he dropped and started convulsing, after a few minutes he passed away 😅. I waited for a car to pick us and the horses up. The owner of the stallion tried to sue for damages, but judge was having non of it. He ended up the one who paid for kids medical treatment. Horrific how some people are so careless.... I believe there is a video of a similar situation on You Tube when mare k*lls a stallion like that
@@rosamunddrag8971some people just shouldn’t own animals, not only was a child injured but their horse was killed because of their negligence
@@fin1801 yes. I'm not, in any way, blame the horse. It's the human who was responsible. Many horses that I worked with were like that in some ways or others because of their owners. Especially I see many who don't respect boundaries of other horses because they were kept separately. By trying to shield their precious expensive horse people isolate them, which turns them into violent disrespectful animals. I'm still sorry for the stallion. He wasn't at fault, but suffered the biggest damage
@@rosamunddrag8971 that’s a very unfortunate situation for all involved, that owner is very irresponsible and should be glad that the kid didn’t get more severely injured. It’s sad that the stallion succumbed to the injuries but I’m glad the mare defended herself and the student. It’s nice to hear there was justice for the situation tho, and hopefully that person won’t get his hands on a stallion again :|
It's fascinating how calm both of the horses were when their owners were yelling and whipping at the other horse, and the fact that the one started bucking only after the owner got of is honestly so sweet, it's like they didn't want to hurt their human
The one that started bucking is obviously a mare, that’s why the stud is acting the way he is
The mare was not bucking but striking out in defense of the stallion.
How do everyone know the mare wasn't kicking before the owner got off?
@@viddeliten the owner would’ve been jostled around
Indeed
Glad you let her kick the shit out of him! She knew what she was doing😏
Obviously they are a bonded team. They protected one another. Good to see.
@@meganfedor true. He definitely deserved kicking
@@richardboswell9306 it’s a public bridleway
@@richardboswell9306 Look at the title; it's a PUBLIC bridleway. The *stallion* should not have been allowed there.
Its a boy
To the 1.4K dislikes. These ladies were defending their horses from a stallion. This was a PUBLIC trail, and someone let there horses roam there. This stallion is trying to dominate this mare, the mare is saying “no” and the stallion is being consistent. These ladies did a wonderful job.
Yes they should probably put into the description if the horses being ridden are mares, in heat, or geldings, to give context. But I agree the stallion is trying to increase his herd and if one of them was in heat it's even more instinct for them. This is why some people in America won't ride without a firearm. That and wild animals, or if they need to (god forbid) put the horse down. The one they're riding
@@recoveringsoul755 yeah, but those aren't wild horses. someone must own them. Gypsys i think
@@MultipleIdentites I finally found a comment thread with the horse owners commenting. The one with pink ears was a mare, supposedly not in heat. The other was a gelding and they tried to put that horse between the mare and the stallion, who was, according to them, a 3 year old colt. I'm not sure at what age they become sexually active and are considered "stallions". Looked like he was trying to mount the mare. She was good though and didn't kick at him till her rider had dismounted.
EmoBerri...I strongly disagree
@@recoveringsoul755 ..loud noises
Just came up on my feed. Three things: 1) Exceptional equitation skills here. Good control, good hands, no panic. 2) I hope this was called to the attention of not only the stallion's owners, but the local authorities. Stallions are dangerous around mares and one of the riders could have received a disfiguring bite. 3) And as mentioned before, Bravo to the mare. You go girl!
I’ve not ridden or been around horses for many years due to spinal injuries but was always under the impression that it was illegal to have a stallion or bull lose on public land. They are classed as a dangerous animal and you would be prosecuted or worse if they injured anyone. Or am I wrong, by the way I live in south Wales, UK.
They’re gypsy horses, they just leave them wherever they can to graze, unfortunately it’s usually public footpaths or bridlepaths. It’s not legal and very dangerous to both the public and the poor horses, but there’s not much people can do about it :(
Unglaublich brave Reitpferde, das sie sich in so einer Situation noch kontrollieren ließen!
I love how the mare waited until the girl was off her back before she started kicking the crap out of the stallion. She's like 'Okay, my human's safe. Now to deal with this bastard.'
@@pageachatter229God I love mares ❣️
I have a gelding. GELDING. Not a stallion, and I think that 90% of stallion owners should not own stallions, let alone let them roam on a public bridleway. You and your horse handled this amazingly! Great job!
So true!
Agreed, so many people positively ruin their horses by leaving them ungelded when they have no business owning a stallion. If a person isn't up for the responsibility and the potential danger of owning one, then they have no business doing so. It reminds me of that Buck Brannaman clip where this irresponsible woman left a stud colt out in the pasture for years with no human contact and then was surprised when he turned out to be basically feral and dangerous. She had an obsession with keeping stallions even though she clearly could not handle them.
@@CeruleanRogue That idiot should have done time for that neglect and abuse. If the locals had got together and gathered all the evidence including her history of doing such a thing I'm sure tha law would have prevented her from ever owning or looking after another horse again. Sounds like she was a pos.
@@CeruleanRogue any horse would go mad in that situation, they are herd animals, not meant to be utterly alone
AGREE!!
She tried so hard not to hurt her owner, what a great bond.
Clearly the atallion was protecting his herd. Its really fascinating behavior. So this is normal. Shouldn't have been there. I love to hear Rick Gore's comkentary on this.
@@SephirothWaifu No I don't believe it was. I believe the stallion was trying to improve its status using her in the herd.
@@SephirothWaifu If that's what Rick Gore said about this video, he was fucking wrong, like he is about a lot of things. The stallion wanted to mount the mare or add her to his herd. Wasn't at all concerned about protecting his mares.
@@SephirothWaifu ج وقد جدد ..
@@SephirothWaifu the fact that you watch rick gore unironically really shows what kind of person you are.
The rider getting off is the equine language equivalent of the horse rolling up its sleeves
The rider got off, and that mare took off her earrings, snatched her wig off and posted up
This gave me chills. Horses are so cool.
@@sunshinehurricanemix honestly they really are, its crazy how animals like horses can show love & affection to riders they trust
Agreed 100, I don't even like horses 👀 I'm not a horsey girl but I was on the edge of my seat , her horse nailed at end x
@@rose1742 I'm dead. I loved your comment.
Looked like your horse wasn't only trying to get the stallion away from itself but it looks like it was trying to protect you to. Didn't buck or jump while you were mounted, then kept its front legs stationed not to hurt you while it bucked the other horse away. That is so amazing to see. You have an amazing horse as if you didn't know already
She did try to buck but was very conscious of her mum … so upsetting to see she was trying to get away from him without risking her mum falling ❤ once mum was off she was just letting him know EXACTLY WHAT SHE THOUGHT ABOUT HIM beautiful horse and great rider
It's clear horse and rider are close. Horses are much more likely to be careful if their actions when their person is riding them. Yes, the mare was protecting her rider as well as herself. It's crazy the things horses will do to keep their person safe. I was attacked while riding by someone I knew and my mare bit the person and broke their nose again.
Sure 🤡🤡🤡
@@leonnZawodowiecthe horse was conered in against the gate while the owner was jacking her teeth out of her mouth ,the only option it had was to kick it,or she would have to jump the gate,why arf you humans so selfish?and prout of things you don't even get a simple body language
You can't sit there and judge this situation until you've been in the situation, so those of you who are downplaying what happened need to keep your comments to yourself. You both handled that situation very well. That's a scary scenario to be in when you are on a 1200lbs+ animal. That could have ended very badly, I'm glad you both got out okay.
Yea stallions can be very dangerous. I've seen what they can do. Tore the kneecap off a rider whose horse got too close to him.
Ooh so sceri dealing whith a horse😂 bitch please I’ve had very close encounters whith a grizzly and Kodiak bear and survived AND face to face whith a red stag in rutting season😂
Agree. I had both arms broken, metal rods still in them today because of an accident with my own horse.
No one is saying they did anything wrong-😂.
I can't put myself in this situation because I live where this would never happen. If this happened on a public trail in America the stallion would have been shot a long time ago. God bless the USA!
It’s awesome how your horses know you are yelling at the stallion and not them, this shows they trust you, you are an amazing owner.
Dont other animals know that too?
@@snickerswo1f519 not sure, but I’m sure there are!
The second you dismounted your mare was like now I'm gonna beat the shit out of you 😂
Laughing out loud and I was cheering her on kick him, kick him, kick him! Laughing out loud
i noticed that too lol. she knew she shouldnt kick with her person on her back. so as soon as she got off the mare knew she could finally fight back
I can’t beleive how many kicks he took
yeah because she couldn't before she had her head held back by reigns
When Skyrim becomes reality.
Well handled. This incident should be reported formally, both to your local police, there will be officers designated countryside offences, AND to the Public Rights of Way section of your local Highway Authority. It's not just about getting justice for this incident but also to educate the offender and hopefully prevent other innocent people suffering similar attacks or worse.
@S.Trades Regardless of your cynical comment, police have a job to do. The opportunity for them to act, only arises if citizens report incidents and do so promptly.
@S.Trades You're missing the point. Firstly, my comments relate to the video above, not to an incident you had. Secondly, the incident you mention bears no relation to what happened in this case.
@@S.TradesEven if you believe it would be a moot point, I’d still encourage people to do it for documentation purposes to show good faith in trying to handle the situation should things escalate or you have to take matters into your own hand. Might come in handy during a court case regardless of the response.
Nice sentiment re the police, but I think under this current Govt you'll probably find they're slightly over-stretched and possibly the same with the other dept's you've mentioned. But, you are right it should be reported and some form of follow up should be actioned, shame is it's very highly unlikely.
what? you can arrest stallion in uk?
Love how your mare waited until you dismounted before kicking the crap out the stallion. Definitely seems like she was doing her best to protect you while facing him down.
Its a VERY good thing that stallion wasnt a few hands taller.
In another comment the person said he was a 3 year old colt. If he was older and taller then that could have been a lot worse
He's a gypsy, they are quite small, about 14 hands

@@PrinzessKennY she was protecting herself and her human, you are a bit of a doosh bag arnt you!!! It's a PUBLIC BRIDLEWAY so that's just plain dangerous for all concerned including the stallion. JEEZ VID SPEAKS FOR ITSELF ON THAT ONE!! Dopey 🤪
@@PrinzessKennY I agree, that horse was annoyed with the stallion trying to jump on her.
@@pandoramoore3794 the stallion couldn’t care less about the girl
Even if the stallion would be able to mount onto the mare it would fail and he get a good ol kick in the face! Like comparing size wise he would be good as dead the stallion!
@@Eeee-xl4xb Even so, he could have escaped or gone for her too. The mare was 100% protecting both herself and the rider- you can also see this when she doesn’t throw the girl off when the stallion first began trying to mount her.
Even though I’m 3 years late, I’m incredibly glad these ladies protected these mares! Well done! I’m sure your mares appreciated it a lot!
It just showed up on my feed as well. I'm curious to know if the owners of that stallion were ever found.
The bond between with the mares was something too. She didn’t start bucking until her owner was off.
I have been in this situation but with a Pitbull attacking my mare on a public trail biting her neck and face repeatedly. We were chased for 2 kilometers. There aren't words to describe how deeply terrifying this is. When you are on top of a horse whos being attacked your instincts are to freeze. Im so impressed with their ability to overide this and scare him away as much as they could. Its interesting how our horses listen to us so well in those situations. Just shows the trust they have in us. Beautiful. Glad you are all ok and really hope the stallion's owner got in shit for that.
Wow - I'm so sorry you and your horse went through that. Utterly terrifying. My service dog and I were also attacked by a pit bull. While it's different in that I wasn't riding him, I know the experience of being unable to protect the partner you work with in complete mutual trust. We were tethered together, but I couldn't have left his side anyway. I hadn't thought of that happening to someone with their horse. A dog whose switch is so flipped it will go after an animal so massive intends to commit murder. Were you and your horse okay?
Yes we are ok but I agree the dog was absolutely in Murder mode. Are you and your dog ok?
@@LittleWoba We lived through it, which is the most important thing. By some miracle, the police found us in the middle of the road and managed to get the vicious dog off of us, which saved my service dog's life and stopped me getting further injured. Police grade pepper spray is next level. So glad you guys are okay!
If this was me and my mare i swear she would’ve abandoned me and ran for her life.
Same
Same with my brothers horse, that is weird I wonder why.
My gelding wouldve made me get off and then attack that stallion, though he lacks testosterone.
Xd
Mine would have presented herself to him and said "come get me big boy!" She's met very few boys that she didn't like. 🙄
that mare waited to buck at him until you were off her back, what an amazing animal, good job guys!
She was a star wasn't she? Even giving him a kicking she held off twatting him stupid cos she's a lady.
yea the horse waited cause it didnt want the rider to hurt them with a bit or beat it with a whip your ignorant think other wise knowledge is valuable
@@CharlotteWeb100 absolutely she is 💜
@@bigoneeye4531 who are you talk about?
@@ravn5159 hmm idk figure it out
I know this is 3 or 4 years ago, but as a horsewoman in the US, my heart was in my throat as I watched the attack. Y'all did an incredible job of protecting yourselves and your horses and getting away from them! I cannot believe someone turned those horses loose on a public bridle trail! Y'all did what you had to do to get away. I sure hope the owners were found and prosecuted! Way to ride and keep y'all's heads!! #RideOn!
There will not be any prosecution be lucky if they find the owners these are normally owned by travellers most of the time they are tied up at the side of the road. They just leave these things to breed there are enough of these unless things all over the UK just sitting and rotting in fields they do fxxk all with them. You normally see them knee-high in the mud. Here in the UK 🇬🇧 a farmer can't put a bull in a field that has a public footpath and I should think the same applies to this stallion being there it's just downright dangerous.
Yes. My heart rate is still elevated even after reading through many comments. This incident could have ended so very badly.
@@echo9970what do people mean here by the word "travelers"?
@dez6278 Some might refer to travellers as "gypsies." PS I do know that the word gypsy is misleading and, unless I'm referring to the style of horse, wouldn't use it
@@dez6278 gypsies, which in the UK usually refers to irish people who simultaniously refuse to be a part of society but also refuse to leave it. A criminal element, mostly illiterate, and wholely unpopular and unwanted.
As a rider I know how insanely scary that situation is . You girls were very brave. Whoever put a stallion on a public path should be charged. You and your horses were lucky not to be hurt
Well done protecting your mare - and what an amazing mare, she was so confident in you
its not the mare that's the problem horses talk like that with bites and kick , but a man cant take one kick before dieng
The Mare even protected her rider.
If protecting your mare meaning screaming and swearing at a horse that doesn't understand human language and thinking they'll leave, sounds like a joke to me because once a horse locks on to another in a aggressive matter- nothing can distract it from attacking as seen in the video, but I suppose points for trying to keep her horse safe.
@@rikka5038 so what exactly would you suggest they have done differently? What would you have done? Like you said, the stallion locked on to them. The only thing to do was to get out as soon as possible, and raising their voices in a threatening manner was the only thing they could do. Unless you think they should have dismounted and tried offering him carrots, calling him a nice horsie??
@@meemurthelemur4811 Because, your horse's head isn't far from your own, yelling and becoming angry will only distress your mount because horses have sensitive ears and also sensitive to your energy but in this case the horses did well to fend off the others and rode on very well despite the overall panic of the situation.
shouldn't have a stallion like that in the bridleway, or they should have put up a warning sign, well done you 2
Well they bloody did have a stalion
@@darkforestzombie218 right... and they shouldn't have. Like how when people say "you shouldn't drive drunk" you don't say "people bloody well do!" Like.... yup, still makes it wrong 🙄
@@lyssakate yeah, I know. There was a stallion in one of the fields of the neighbouring farm and it was a big problem. They shouldn't have had it there in the first place and it was making the horses in our field keep jumping over to the stallion. Was a right pain in the ass for us all. They have moved it to a separate pen now and they have put up an electric tape fence so there is no danger for anybody walking through the field.
@@darkforestzombie218 the mares kept jumping over the fence to get to the stud 🤣😂
@@sambur6480 basically yeah
These stallion attacks can be so violent. How frightening for the ladies and the horses.
You did absolutely amazing. The fact your mare was protecting you (not bucking whilst you were on her) and keeping him away from you and her. Well done!
Lmao I love how she keeps telling the Stallion to "f**k off!"
🤣🤣🤣 I laugh every time, I think to myself 'why the hell did I say that' 🤣🤣

Even Fk off didnt deter him
@@darkforestzombie218 yes I was on the mare
@@janinegriffin6345 you were on the horse. I do not care what "type" it was. Also did you not see there was another horse in the field?
You two handled that brilliantly. I'm appalled people would let their stallions roam free on a public bridleway. How can some people be so thoughtless?
They are Galineers Cobs, the traditional breed of the Irish traveller, and there is a massive problem in the UK with them being turned loose and abandoned on agricultural and common land by said travellers.
Time for some herd thinning and castrations.
@@tatumergo3931 well there are so many of them. In places like York there are a lot of free roaming horses but they still belong to people so no on can really do too much about it. They are also sometimes awfully treated which is sad but it’s dangerous riding around because all the stallions are pests when your on a mare.
@@tatumergo3931 I agree totally but unfortunately the males always have to show dominance towards other horses especially mares and it’s illegal in the UK unfortunately. I just try my best to stay away from stallions and sometimes even geldings when I’m on my mare. I wish it was different but a lot people don’t train and take care of their animals properly anymore
@@tatumergo3931 let’s hope
Expert horsewomen and great presence of mind. The horses were exceptionally obedient and calm under these difficult circumstances. Bravo to all!
3 years late but excellent handling of the situation, also your mare seems like an amazingly reliable horse! The way she went ham as soon as you dismounted was quite something to behold.
Fair play to your horse. Calm as hell when you was on him/her but when you was off showed that stallion who the boss was. Big up your horse for how he/she reacted.
Must have been a she. The stallion wouldn't have been that interested if it was a male
Oh he could have been. Stallions attack other stallions you know. Not all but some yes.
@@jakkonu5746 Yeah the channel owner said she is a she
@@jakkonu5746 sometimes they don't know though. Stallions can be crazy, I've seen stallions try to mount geldings and getting so frustrated. It is very dangerous

@@maetrae1770 maybe just the tip 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh Sophia I laughed so hard at your comment. Thanks for the belly laugh.
My god, that stallion had awful manners. That poor lady, I felt for her so much when she said “Sue I’m petrified”. What a terrifying and extremely dangerous situation
Your mare is brilliant. She took such good care of you, especially at the gate. And you both handled yourselves exceptionally well in an extremely dangerous situation. Well done. Hopefully the stallion's owner was cited because that is absolutely unacceptable.
The rider and the horse has such an amazing bond!! They trust each other so much
Right !
Yes also it’s a stallion so them horses are kinda bad tempered so ye your right
Not true at all. You don't need a bond of trust to be a good rider. Any professional rider could have handled the situation in the same way even if the horse had zero trust on them.
@@Dalgeor every good rider knows that the bond and trust are important. + you are wrong, it doesn’t matter how good the rider is, when the horse don’t trust him it won’t react like that.
@@Dalgeor nonesense. If that horse hadn't had such a bond with her rider and trusted her, she would have done whatever it took to get rid of that stallion with no regard to the rider's wellbeing. That's usually the moment when ego-based riders learn that they're puny creatures compared to horses.
The loyalty the horse shows is heart warming
XD it was not loyality but normal horse behavior if u ever saw video of strange stalion aproaching mare. So called bucking and it is not as dangerous to horses as it seems. I was more concerned with ladies safety than horse althought horses wearing halter or so are always at biggest risk in such a situation (coz they are not able to make Full use of their head and neck)
@@suxe9021 nope. it was loyalty and trust. the horses knew their owners weren’t yelling at them but at the stallion.
@@TheDynastyDiamond so what you say is that mares do not buck when stalion is aproaching this way? Loyality would be beautiful and romantic and all but :/ it is kind of against horse behavioristic study to have such a complex beautiful motives especialy while bucking around stalion. I believe it was normal bucking (About ladies not getting bucked off, it is purely exelent horseriding and balance skills.) If horse is hurt or scared enough it may buck u off and loyality has nothing to do with it. I doubt mare was protecting anybody but herself. I also doubt horses understood who riders were yelld at horse do not proces The way we are (Yes they are smart, very smart but differently, loyal to foal, herd yes, used to feeder definitely). If u are curious and believe that you do not know best (as I do) read about horse behaviouristic, herd behavior, horse inteligence ect. I will gladly read studies about horse loyality if you would like to share it with me. I am open to lear if I am mistaken^^ (Horses are not as we but as other horses that is what I believe. Taking it for what it is) Awesome work on not getting bucked off, I am glad nohorse or human got hurt Greetings
@@suxe9021 I never said it wasn’t normal behavior I’m just saying the horses had loyalty and trust. When the riders got off the horse, they could’ve ran off from the owner. And thinking I don’t know about horse behavior is really bold of you. You don’t know me, so don’t assume. I’m just saying the horses did have some loyalty and trust in their owners.
@@suxe9021 the mare didn't kick the stallion which is its natural instinct until the owner got off. As soon as she did her horse started kicking. Which to me shows care for her rider as she does not want her to fall off. As get caught in the fight. She is trusting her commands and listening. Horses are smart animals and have evolved to work with humans. Since horses where first tamed they was a massive part of culture and society until the 1910s
I would’ve hugged my horse for hours after this. What a great mare. She was truly protecting you and herself.
I think a lot of people who aren’t around horses don’t understand how powerful they are. I worked with horses at a therapeutic riding center and was working with a pony - much shorter and petite than this muscled stallion, and while she was being a bit naughty during a bathing, she lifted me clear off the ground with just her neck muscles. And I am a big girl. Not to mention the potential kicks and bites. Their teeth aren’t made for cutting but are powerful and can grab and rip. Quite a dangerous situation here for both horse and rider and handled very well. Thank goodness no one was hurt.
God, these queens be yelling like straight up VIKINGS 💪💪
One would think that should scare off the horses, but they were pretty persistent although it was 3 vs 4.
PREACH!
Haha yeah
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why are you imitating afro american speech? Is it like a way of being stupid preemptively so people cant judge you? Because its working
The riders handled this so gratefully
Agreed
@@westernrider6005 agreed
It was pathetic.
Never thought I'd see you here but I am glad that you are
Absolutely agree
It’s amazing your horse was protecting you at the gate. It’s so annoying people would just let their horses roam about on a public field carelessly. Whoever did that shouldn’t have a single horse. You two ladies handled that amazingly, I’m glad none of you got seriously hurt.
That mare said these hooves are rated E for everyone on that stallions chin🤣
This is so frustrating to watch, I'm glad they've since been removed from the area but how irresponsible of the stallion's owners; you don't own a stallion unless you're able to teach it manners and keep it secured. Imagine if he'd have hurt you or your mare, or if he'd have successfully mounted your mare and hurt you or god forbid gotten her pregnant? I'd be fuckin' livid. This was also super scary to watch but I'm glad at the end it looked like your mare was protecting you...Stuff like this can traumatize and scare horses, I'm glad you guys ended up alright.
Irresponsible is the exact term for the stallion's owners! Even though the public trail (bridleway, whatever lol) is through a private pasture, they still should've had a very visible sign at both entrances of the trail "caution: stallion lives in pasture" or something along the line of that! It doesn't take much effort and can potentially save a life! As a matter of fact, there's a trail around my area that some people use (I've only rode it once with some friends), and at both ends of the trail, there is a huge sign warning of an aggressive long horn bull that lives in the field. The owners haven't had an accident in all the years they've owned that land/bull because people see that sign and either go "oh, give this animal a WIDE birth" or "nope, don't wanna ride there". Granted it's two different animals, but the connection is there, lol signs can save a life. As someone who has been around both untrained and trained stallions, I can confidently say that: even the most well mannered ones will have their days! Someone I know owns a very "gentleman" mannered stallion, and yet they've had incidents where he's gotten aggressive or overprotective due to instincts (fight or flight). Being around aggressive stallions is very traumatizing for everyone involved (I've been charged and kicked at from recovering rescues), so I'm just happy these folks knew how to handle the situation! 😱
This mate must have been in heat which is why the stallion was so eager. When a stallion is like this, there's no way you're teaching him manners 😂
@@kelleysmith5709 the owner said in another reply that her mare was not in heat at all. Yes, stallions usually get eager and excited when a nearby mare (or mares) are in heat, but this was also an aggressive behavior, most likely due to him being young. You CAN teach a stallion manners/how to behave, however like I said in my previous comment, even the most well trained ones can still have their tendencies to be aggressive and dominate. That's why responsible owners will not put their stallion out with mares and leave them there, because when breeding season begins, those nice and gentle stallions become territorial and aggressive. Even bachelor bands (young stallions who band together when they don't have a herd of their own) get aggressive due to them attempting to start a herd of their own. This is observed in wild horses fairly often, but can still happen with tamed ones as well because it's natural to them, it's an instinct. Working in the rescue field has allowed me to see the difference between a trained horse and one that was left to his own devices, which usually ends up horrible for the later.
@@kelleysmith5709 You can DEFINITELY teach a stallion manners. I know lots of stallions who are perfectly mannered horses even when surrounded by mares in heat. In my opinion, if your stallion is extremely hot-headed & impossible to control around mares like this, that is a sure sign you either need to a) work on your training or b) geld him. A horse being a stallion is no excuse for dangerous, uncontrollable behaviour like this.
@@kelleysmith5709 not at all true. I have a stallion (Andalusian) and I can bareback around mares in heat and all he gets is that more flashy look at me to his movements because he has been taught manners and knows it's not okay to go up to a mare and start harassing her. It's all in training and exercise. But stallions like in the video give stallions a bad reputation. I wouldn't trust mine with mares completely unsupervised and loose but I wouldn't trust any horse regardless of gender to mix with their opposite sex either. (Mares can be just as bad for getting it on.) There should have been signs up saying there was a probably young stallion loose in the field. Could you imagine how much worse this could have been if it was some inexperienced rider who didn't know what to do? Could you imagine some beginner panicking because some strange horse came up and made a nuisance of itself?
pov: that “nice guy” in middle school when the girl tells him she’s not interested
LMAOOO PLSSS 💀 THATS TOO ACCURATE
Omg 😂💀
Hahaha.. lol😂
The girl being in high school. This stallion couldn't physically mount this mare even if he tried to.
loll! It’s so accurate
I’ve been riding for 39 years and I would’ve had absolutely no idea what to do! Good on both of you for staying so calm and keeping your heads.
Well dealt with. I can only imagine how scary it probably was to get into the middle of something like that on horseback- I've been riding while horses broke out into a fight and it was pretty terrifying, but they weren't wild stallions. And props to your mare for literally defending you and herself!
*The stallion was trying to claim the horses into his herd.* *Particularly your mare.*
The brute, idiots people are letting a stallion loos
I really don't think that was a seasoned herd stallion, but a young guy all excited by his hormones and doesn't know what to do with them.
And mare said nope
I agree, at the end of the video, I think the stallion wanted to claim, not attack.
@@keithbenefit still
Mad respect to these ladies for handling this situation the way they did. And same for the mare who didn’t buck once until her rider was off. That’s a great bond between the woman and her mare
Well done, frightening situation. You both were fantastic, love your horses.
Holy crap, your horses are absolutely AMAZING!!! I can't believe how composed and responsive they were in this situation. And the riders were obviously handling this as best as physically possible.
You both handled that very well. My stallion is extremely well behaved and as we were competing a few shows ago and heading to the warm up ring, a gelding tied to his trailer broke loose and galloped up to us slipping and falling on the way and and I was screaming at him to piss off and waiving my dressage whip around while the owners are just standing there, watching from a distance not worried about their loose horse or the fact that they didn't know mine was a stallion. I gallop away to the warm up, my horse was unphased the loose horse terrorized the rest of the show. I completed and won my class and as im heading back the way I came, the loose horses owner was like ya know you didn't have to panic and yell at him he wasn't going to hurt you. Dumb woman. I had to explain that I was protecting her horse feom my stallion should he have been bother by the loose horse crawling up our arse and the last thing I would need was a loose stallion at a show. Luckily my boy didn't even react and went on to win his class❤ really bothered me the unimportance of the situation and ignorance from the other owner🙄
If you yell like that in ancient Times every viking would run away traumatised
I laughed way too hard at this-
Lmfao
I'm ancient times the viking would have hopped off his horse and slaughtered the offender
That was just what I was thinking too. She roared like ready for battle
That's too funny 🤣😂🤣😂 i
I’ve seen this video a lot and this is a great example of a bond between horse and rider. You were protecting her and she was protecting you. There was no way in hell she was letting that stallion near her human.
Im so sorry you all had to go through this. I was literally in tears. You all did such a good job of keeping your babies safe. I’m so thankful nobody was injured. ❤️
Typical male can’t take “NO” for an answer..lol 😅😂😅😂
“I’m petrified Sue” - I felt scared for her. Glad everything turned out okay
Haha my legs were like jelly, I tried to stay calm but I was literally shitting a brick 😂😂 xx
@@janinegriffin6345 That's what true bravery is. :) Being sh!t scared and pressing on anyway. Honestly, I thought you, your friend and both your horses were bloody amazing. And when your horse placed herself between you and the stallion and went dental on him I had such admiration for the bond you two had. Not sure if she's your horse, but she's a gem.
@@M3rVsT4H awwww thankyou ❤️ yes she's my horse 😍 we trust eachother soooo much 😁😁 We all worked as a team 💪💪😬😬 xx
This is so terrifying and the horse is pretty big too 😟
What a nasty little man, he really thought he was all that
He wanted to mate wit that mare she was riding u could see his YOU KNOW WHAT hangin down trotting behind her and ready to get on I am guessing he mated with a mare in the herd and dissided to think it was ok todo it with that other mare she was riding
It’s like my guinea pig Milo always showing uhm to much domination over Martin
I meannnn.... this is normal horse behaviour. Stallions keep a harem of mares to mate with and protect from other stallions. Stallions get mares by stealing them from other stallions. He probably thought he was super lucky to find some unattended mares, before he noticed the two screaming vikings sitting on top of them lmao. DOnt be mad at the stallion, he only did what was natural. Be mad at the irresponsible idiots putting them in that field.
How dare a horse do what is natural to it while I selfishly ride it and abuse it for personal gain.
@@Brickcellent clearly you are pretty uneducated. Wild horses can be tamed sometimes but you can’t just put a non wild horse in the wild. So if we are talking about things that are “natural” the horses they’re riding want to be ridden and probably wouldn’t survive on their own. If that mare wanted the stallion near her she wouldn’t have bucked would she?
I cannot get over what good horses you ladies have! This video was terrifying when I put myself in your place. So glad nobody was hurt!
People have no idea just how fucking dangerous horses can be, even that little stallion is likely well over 400 lbs. A bite can break bone, a head butt can do the same, and a well placed kick can end you. Domesticated does not mean tame.
I have a scar on my back from just this sort of situation. I was on a gelding and the stallion came out of nowhere. Grabbed me by my lower back and lifted me off my horse.
So, watching this gave me a bit of anxiety. lol
Oh damn! Glad you're okay now :)
@@paigemontague4022 Thanks
😳😳😳😳
Did you punch it in the face?
Even though she was terrified she handled everything perfectly. Her horse reacted perfectly. As bad as the situation was it’s the best that I could’ve been
I love how the horse was like Ok, moms off me now it's my time to shine *starts to buck as hard as it can*
That must have been scary at the gate, being back into basically a corner with this stallion attacking your horse but i noticed that your horse stood in between you and the stallion trying to kick him. I think your horse was also trying to protect you as much as you were trying to protect her ❤❤❤❤
"GET AWAY, YA FUCKIN THING!!" so British 🤣
😂😂😂😂
Ik that's what I was saying the whole video laughing my ass off
I'm happy there was another rider there to help. I dread to think what could have happened if you were on your own, or if this had happened to children out hacking on ponies. There's a definite bond between you and your mare, because she waited until you'd got to the gate and got off before kicking him.
This is exactly what we said, i dread to think of it being children and I have no idea what I woukd of done if I was alone 😢 xx
@@janinegriffin6345 it's really scary to think of how many other riders, both children or experienceed riders, this could have happened to who were alone. Hopefully the police can do something with the go pro footage you recorded so that it doesn't happen to anyone else. How were you, your friend and your horses when you all got back??
@@shellh2012 They're wild horses why should the police do anything.
@@Liam-cl2do what makes you so sure they're wild horses??? They may be wild. There is also a possibility that they may be owned by travellers. And as far as I know, these ladies were hacking on a public bridal path, which could be going through fields owned by farmers, which means the police should know. It's a scary situation that the riders should not have been in. Imagine if children were hacking and this stallion had the same reaction?? Would it be ok for the police not to get involved then??
@@Liam-cl2do They're not wild horses; the only wild horses we have in the UK are New Forest or Exmoor ponies, and they don't look anything like this.
I was riding my mare once on a public road. Out of nowhere a stallion broke his crappy fence and started to hassle and run up to my horse. I kept her going, thank goodness she was not in heat. The stallion got so mad he turned into her side and started kicking hard both barrels into her side!! Barely missed my leg. I ran her to a construction site where there were a lot of men. They instantly recognized the problem, magically produced a rope, caught him and tied him to a tree. I scedaddled out of there😮!!!
Who would leave their nice gypsy stallion to get beat up by unwilling mares in a public area?? WTF
Stallions are very dangerous. Especially around an in season mare. Glad the riders and horses came out of there okay
Not all stallions are dangerous.
@@rebeccanj Stallions are driven by hormones, yes they are dangerous.
@@kayceadair I have 2!!! Not dangerous. Educate yourself!!
@@rebeccanj 😂 Just cause you have 2 doesn’t mean you know all about them. You could also be uneducated here. Stallions are considered the most dangerous and hard to work with when it comes down to gender. Stallions have their balls attached which causes high levels of hormones. I’m not saying their always mean, but they are very dangerous. The person who needs to educate themself here, is you.
Yes one jumped over a wall knocked my friend off her horse a gelding and followed him to his stable kicking him. I think their were mares in the field near him
Wow, I am so impressed how that mare put her self between you and that stallion. She is a incredible horse.
Rider: *gets off horse* Mare: “You’re free trial of life has expired”
Notice how that mare didn't kick any until the rider was dismounted. What a polite and wonderfully intelligent girl.
You can see why the Bedouins preferred mares as their war mounts ✊ Mad respect for you guys and your horses
@@richardvaldes3959 😂😂 we don’t eat horses
@@richardvaldes3959 They used the stallions for the more work, hence the "feminine" types of Arabian horse were desirable for war and the "masculine" types were built for work, not meat. Even a heavier build Arabian would not be suitable for meat AT ALL and would be a huge waste when you have goats, sheep, and camel to eat. Even the horses ate mutton fat.

She’s such a good mare omg, she rlly tried to protect you at the gate. My mare would of bucked me off and left me 😭
Oof
I cannot get over how AMAZING your horses were. She was protecting YOU.
Scary situation! You ladies did great and the mares did as well! Your equitation skills shined bright!
You guys handled it so well. I would have been scared as hell
Screaming like witless morons...I guess there are all kinds of "Handled it so well" definitions...Ahahahah
@@stevedavies1261 I mean the screaming may indicate to the horse that the rider is indeed handling the situation somewhat.
@@stevedavies1261 If I may ask how would you have handled it? (Calm? Still trying to put up a defense? Or seeking a way out instantaneously?,...?)
@@stevedavies1261 they were attempting to drive him off. It wasn't working, but that's all they had at their disposal, short sticks and shouting. Why on earth are you criticizing their response to a terrifying situation? They got themselves and their horses out without injury, that's "handled well" in my book.
@@lyssakate I completely agree with you
Wow. I just witnessed sexual harrasment. Yikes!
literally me watching this
@Allison Hoff wh- seriously tho, yikes. men really have the audacity
@Allison Hoff ah yes, lets joke abt how serious sexual harrasment is lmaooo
Toxic masculinity lol
@Allison Hoff Why’re you so mad? 😂
What irresponsible idiots put a stallion and their herd where there is a public bridleway. Such a dangerous situation with the stallion trying to protect its herd or whatever. We get this round our way, it's the likes of Travellers using random people's fields to graze in without permission.
What an ignorant stallion. No manners around mares either. Nice riding and thankfully you had your very vocal friend to ward him off while you got your mare out. Lucky he didn't tear into your mare....
that poor mare, i’m glad she protected herself.
im sure the mare is fine, theyre horses doing what horses do
@@what2730 she needed treatment after the incident, she's 23 years old, I didn't want her being sore so had the osteopath to work on her
@@what2730 You could say the same about humans getting attacked and raped.
Your horse protected you at the gate. Extra carrots 🥕 for her. Xx
Awww I love that comment
Extra Classic outcakes my guy there the best
My heart was pounding when she was struggling with the gate I was so nervous one of them might get injured but they handled the situation so well also she list her crop which is so sad ❤
I let my friend's horse back into the pasture she shared with miniature horses. Came this close to her kicking me HARD in an effort to keep one of the stallions away. My heart froze in my chest as you dismounted and opened the gate. Stallions have inadvertently killed mares while mating and trying to mate. This was such a dangerous situation that you handled SO well ❤️
I like how the horse finally bucked him away at the end😂
@Keira Buckley 😂😂😂😂lmfao for real though
Damn...that stallion just didn’t want to go away! Well done for handling it so well. And your mare was a good girl for kicking him lol
I think the reason why was because he wanted to mate with the mare
Absolutely terrifying to watch let alone be in that situation! So glad you all made it out safe and unharmed ❤
Ladies: Gahhh F off!!!! Lead Mare: The second she gets off imma kick you in the chops mate 😂👌😂😶
Such a disgrace that we have to deal with people like that, leaving their stallions on public bridleways. The people who left that stallion there should be ashamed of themselves. You dud so well, ans you and your mare and your freind all handled this situation perfectly x
Disgraceful that we have to deal with people like those riders who think that they have all the "rights" over and above all and everyone else. Too much money and not enough common sense and/or education. This is how the lower orders in the UK behave today. If you're going to take up riding as a hobby, then for goodness sake learn the rules and don't think that everyone else owes you. Working class stupidity at its worst.
@@geraldinegregory.1803 That stallion should have been shoot for putting a human at risk.
@@geraldinegregory.1803 people should not leave stallions in a public area like that. it could have gone really bad if that stallion was a bit older. if they want to put a male horse in there, they should geld it, no questions asked.
@@geraldinegregory.1803 'The lower orders'? Were you born with that stick up your arse, or is it a new addition?
@@FinlandiaWhiteEyes I acquired it over many decades.
I love how she put herself between you and the Stallion at the gate and kicked the crap out of it. Good girl.
I have a friend who had a stallion nearly rip her throat out!!!! I don't think the idiots disliking this have ever in their life been near an uncontrolled stallion. Get educated, go visit a stud farm and go hear stories how dangerous and violent stallions can be!! Not to mention one out free like this, completely uncontrolled. These ladies were so lucky they and their horses came out of this still in one piece!!! (And yes, I have owned a TB Stallion so don't try tell me I don't know what I am talking about)
Why do you think owners of valuable mares often use AI for breeding?
If the dislikers had ever been around a stallion wanting its way with a horse, the dislikers would know how bloody dangerous stallions can be!!🤬
That made me feel sick to my stomach I can’t imagine how terrifying that must have been . Your mare is an absolute gem too that would have been 1000x more dangerous if she’d not reacted how she did . Nice work everyone but shame in those irresponsible stallion owners
Can we just applause the other rider!! She talks my kind of language! That’s exactly how I would help my mates out!
Why are there loose horses on a public trail? Stallions can be very dangerous.
To any non-horse owners: stallions are incredibly strong and VERY determined when they smell a mare in season! They also bite, kick and stomp whatever is in their way to get to the mare. (Unless trained to behave and have manners, which obviously this stallion thus stallion has neither!) These women did a fantastic job keeping this stallion away as best as possible, while trying to get away, and at the same time keeping themselves and their horses safe. Absolutely, this mare is a gem! Not only does she have complete trust in her owner but she puts herself in between her owner and the stallion, in full protection mode. This is not a trained behavior! This horse did this on her own, you can’t train a horse to do this! Proves a great bond between horse and rider! Fantastic job ladies, and what beautiful horses you have.❤️
"GET AWAY!!! GET AWAY!!! " KZhead: "music"
BAHAHAHA
Omfg that made me laugh
LMAO

This video will have a remix soon
the way your mare just pinned her ears at that stallion just shows you she was not having it from that stallion and knew you couldn’t get hurt and she wasn’t have a Irish cob foal
I'm not from the UK, but something tells me "Irish cob foal" might be a bit improper??
@@imbwildrd3693 irish cob is the type of horse the stallion is
@@rainyday794 and how do you know an irish cob from an 'english' cob??🤦♀️
@@missg3188 it was an Irish cob, though.
The fact that this sounds racist is hilarious and is a testament to the times we are in
If a public trail goes through any type of pasture area, no one should just let their horses roam free...especially a stallion.
They'll become very territorial. There's no follow up, but I wonder if the owners let them loose there because they couldn't afford them anymore. This was taken 3 years ago, at the height of the pandemic in the UK.
Whew! Your horses were so cooperative and your chasing away-a-stallion skills were excellent. I’m glad you all got through that gate without damage!
