    Would it make you feel better to know that horses bias very heavily to the flight side of fight or flight?

        The are so heavily biased into running away that getting their legs stuck is a common way for them to lose a leg.

        What the GP gets wrong is on the assumption that it’s safe to be near a horse trying to run away.
