Why do protective mares attack without an obvious threat?
In equine ethology, a nursing mother’s threat threshold drops dramatically. When this mare measures the open distance between her newborn foal and the neighboring paddock, her protective instincts misinterpret harmless proximity as an active risk. This triggers preemptive displacement aggression—striking a calm bystander across the fence to enforce an absolute safety perimeter.
Understanding maternal hypervigilance shows that equine aggression is often rooted in hardwired survival mechanisms rather than intentional hostility.
