The horse is a one hoofed mammal, a subspecies of one of seven species of the family Equidac. The horse has evolved over the past 45 to 55 million years from a small animal into to the large one of today. People began to domesticate horses around 4000 BC. Although most horses today are domesticated, here are still some populations of the Przewalski’s Horse, the only remaining true wild horse, as well as more common wild horses which live in the wild, but are bread from domesticated ancestor. Horses are widely used by men up to the present days. But their importance has fallen in connection with mechanization development. Their anatomy enables them to make use of speed to escape their animus and they have a well-developed sense of balance and a strong fight-or-flight instinct. Related to this need to run away from the animus in the wild is an unusual trait: horses can sleep both standing up and lying down. The male horses are called stallions. A castrated is called the gelding.
