True or false question- horses are rarely born bad but there are horses that are born crazy.?

Horses (or any animal for that matter) are NEVER born 'bad' - people, events and circumstances make them that way.


For the second part, it depends what you mean by 'crazy' - horses (and other animals) can have mental problems as a result of birth defects, inbreeding etc. and this causes problems in the way that they are ';wired up'; if you will. This is a physical thing, horses aren't born crazy in the sense that they are just plain daft.


All have their own personalities, based on their nature, temprament, uprbinging and the circumstances and events that they have experienced. Some are highly strung, others laid back. It depends!True or false question- horses are rarely born bad but there are horses that are born crazy.?
may be trueTrue or false question- horses are rarely born bad but there are horses that are born crazy.?
YES THEY CAN this happens rarely but there are induvidual horses and animals with brain issues that go unnoticed. Tumors, underdevolptment, chemicals while pregnant, and even genetics can alter the shape and size of brain part and simulation or these parts. The thinking and reasoning part of the horse's brain is not as large as other parts such as those responsible for movement and hearing say. So if something does go wrong with shape, simluation, harmones, or tumors the horse can be 'crazy'. But we tend to think of 'crazy' more as a personality type. No horse's personality is 'crazy' rather it is hindered and limited due to his limitations due to his health. Think of that horse as disabled not 'crazy'. be awre that this happens far more in other animals than horses because genetics are aimed for a good personality with atheltic abilty. Meaning we unknowning encourage proper brain devolptment suitable to domestication. It is more common to have these 'disabled' animals in crosses whose brains are different. (arabs a general athletic suited breed with less focus on temperment is bred with a shire who's brain is far more designed for personality due to their need for submission and extreme size when bred together may have a great ir not so great. Both of the breeds brains are simulated and have more or less cells and electricity going to certain parts.) however purebreds that are bred by unskilled or born from parents with pre-disposed gentic defects in the brain that are unrecognized, and often though of as crazy or 'hot', the foal may inherit their brain function and distrubution of brain cells as this is ditermined by genetic and DNA.





in all horses can be 'crazy', but this is more referred to as a personality type. Rather the type of 'crazy' i believe you are talking about is due to brain health and disablity due to gentics, inherit, tumors, simulations, and natural brain make up. We do not do nearly enough studies on equine brains partially because of their size and the expense with the equitment involved as well as the wide array of breeds all with different brain and cell distrubution due to our domestication of them.
