Domestic Horse (Equus caballus)Observer
natureeagerDescription
Feral horses. Were walking down middle of highway. We had to honk the horn and get out of the car and wave at them to get them to get out of the road. Even then, they stopped and looked at us, then walked off the road. Once off the road they began running through the forest parallel to the highway, but getting gradually deeper into the trees.
