Have you seen the movie "Cloud"? It is the story of a white stallion in the wild, as told by a woman researcher who "followed" him for a couple of years & wrote a book about him and how he lived. It's happy, sad, interesting & enlightening. It is re-run now & then on some cable channels and I think you can rent it.

They say he should be able to do what comes naturally to him and so on and we should learn how horses behave rather than forcing them to behave as we do so to speak.? So with that in mind,?what would?the stallion?do if he were out in the wild?? I'm really just wondering.?

I'm thinking of the frustration this poor stallion is feeling, being out with "his" mares and not being able to perform. While it may seem amusing to watch him trying to accomplish the deed, it just seems cruel to me. Either get him a mare he can actually penetrate or keep him away from mares or geld him. JMHO

This morning Tonto was with the mare that "mothered" him and he was standing beside her and err, how shall I put it, just copulating with nothing.? Then he tried, and again, he can't reach, so aborts.?
