Schleich - 17085 | Mustang Foal

Mustangs are small, tough horses. They hold their heads high and proud. Perhaps because they forge their way through the wilderness without human care and attention. After the Mustangs, noble Arabian and Barbary horses came to America. They interbred with the Mustangs, which is why their elegant physique can still be seen in many wild horses today. Mustangs are often said to be quite stubborn. This is because their free lifestyle makes them very independent of humans. They also give birth to their foals without any outside help. They are usually born at night. This is less dangerous because their predators – especially pumas – tend to hunt in the brighter twilight.
