Begin to understand the behaviour, movement and responses of horses by looking at the natural history of their wild relatives. This book goes back to the horse's truly wild origins - the single wild horse species that survives today on the steppelands of Asia, the wild asses and zebras - and investigates every aspect of horse natural history and behaviour. It draws on the huge variety of domesticated breeds that we are familiar with, for they, too are part of the horse story, and visits other hoofed relatives such as the rhinoceros, tapir and giraffe. Mustangs of the American plains, wild white horses of the Carmargue, the Australian brumby.when they are roaming free they evoke everything that humans love about horses. Also included are amazing-but-true facts in "Did You Know?" spotlights, plus panels on horses in myth, literature and film. In over 200 wildlife photographs, including picture sequences that focus on a particular aspect of wild horse life, this book offers both an accessible study of the horse and a celebration of its beauty, strength, speed, power and grace. The "Nature Watch" series supplements school curriculum science subjects at Key Stage 2 on life processes in the animal world.
