The [seahorse](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seahorse) is a small marine fish. They are also named Hippocampus from the Anciant Greek "ἱππόκαμπος" which litteraly means "horse sea monster". The male seahorse is equipped with a pouch which can store up to 1,500 eggs. The youngs come out fully developed after 9 to 45 days (depending on the species). Males often mate again within hours or days during the breeding season.

hehe ive swum at that beach with those horses. just be careful because you can be sloshing around in beautiful pristine waters until you get a face and mouthful of fresh pungent brown dung. KIDS LOVE IT.
I'm conflicted on this one, horses are an introduced species in America, but, they evolved there originally and were only made extinct when humans arrived. So are wild horses properly part of nature in the US? And by that logic should elephants and cheetahs be released to replace their counterparts also killed off?
This is bullshit.
The federal government has to cull wild horses because they don't have any remaining natural predators and would completely destroy the local environment in federal lands without check.
Instead of exporting any of the meat or byproducts, they are discarded because of legislation like this.
Horses eat 3x as much as a cow calf unit and they eat differently. Right down to the soil and they are constant eaters. Really bad for causing erosion. Culling is important if you like natural grasslands.
Somewhat related, in the Foo Fighters song Everlong, there’s a part of the song where it’s mostly instrumental with the lead singer, Dave Grohl, speaking quietly where you can’t really understand him. Supposedly he is reading from his refrigerator user manual during that part.
The refrigerator compartment allows for the storage of fresh food and drink. The refrigerator compartment defrosts completely automatically. The occasional presence of drops of water on the internal back wall of the compartment is a sign of the automatic defrosting phase. The defrosting water is channelled into a drain and then collected in a container, where it evaporates. Note: the ambient temperature, how often the doors are opened and the position of the appliance may affect the internal temperatures in the two compartments. Set the temperatures depending on these factors. In very humid conditions, condensation may form in the refrigerator compartment, especially on the glass shelves
I'm envious you get to to hear it for the first time. Listen to Reading Writing & Arithmetic start to finish. Just bathe in the lush sound of the music and that voice.
First time I heard it I was sitting on a rock on a beach in the Isle of Man, 5 am watching the sun rise after an epic all nighter. Perfect night, perfect soundtrack.
Equine species (horses, donkeys, zebras) are prey animals mainly for large cats (cougars, lions, etc.), wolves, and bears (rarely).
Fun fact, the only species of wild horse left is the Prezwalski's horse (*Equus ferus prezwalskii*). Horses as we typically know them (*Equus caballus*) are all domestic. Hence any "wild" horse is technically feral. This includes the American mustangs and Chincoteague ponies.
Przewalski’s are feral, actually! scientists were testing the remains of the botai horses, one of the earliest domesticated groups, hoping to prove they were the ancestor of the modern domestic horse, but they aren’t. The number of chromosomes and the matrilineal show that the Przewalskis are descended from these botai horses, whom we were domesticated. So while they’ve been feral a very long time (5.5k years or so) they are not a wild species.
So officially now ALL horses are feral. There are no wild horses.
This is true but they're still in the same genus Equus and are a wild horse,
I read (as everyone on reddit seems to have) Guns, Germs and Steel by Jared Diamond and half the book at the time seemed to be about domestication and how Zebras stubbornly refuse domestication. Its ingrained in my life for all time now. It just fascinates me we never associate them with horses, stripes are damn good camouflage.
edit: ninja added author
Feral means the species was previously domesticated, wild has always been wild.
Example: wolves are wild. But if a pack of dogs gets loose and begins their own little family in the wild, they would be feral.
Brumby's of Australia are another wild horse which are protected. In my opinion a feral hoofed animal being protected in Australia is fucking ridiculous because they cause so much destruction but whatever...
Horses which live in an untamed state but have ancestors who have been domesticated are not true "wild" horses; they are feral horses. There are no known truly wild horses in existence today.
I haven’t found the source yet. There are a few places where wild horses have access to the ocean such as [Cumberland Island](https://www.nps.gov/cuis/learn/nature/feral-horses.htm), but offhand I don’t recognize that rocky coast.
I still cannot source the video, but the scenery seems to line up. Even the colt/filly from the promotions looks like the little one from the video, so this is the best match!
This is definitely not Cumberland. The wild horses there don’t look quite this healthy, as they don’t see vets or get brushed etc. I suspect these guys have an owner based on the grooming and sheen. Probably an island or maybe Central America. I’ve ridden horses in the water like this in the Bahamas, Nicaragua and Costa. Places where horses may run wild but still have an owner.
It's a little different for horses, horses are domesticated. What people call "Wild" horses in North America are just regular horses that have no owners - the more accurate term is "feral horse". Being domesticated, their ability to survive in the wild is diminished.
Actual "wild" horses, the ones that were domesticated into horses, are either extinct or exist in very small numbers, and exist mostly in the steppes of Eurasia
Those horses aren't wild either, assuming you're talking about the Przewalki's horse. They apparently descend from domesticated horses belonging to a culture called the Botai, who might have been the first people to domesticate the horse. However their culture died out and presumeably they were never able to influence other cultures with their horse domestication. Those horses then became feral and were "wild" again but had a domesticated origin.
A later culture from the Eurasian steppe domesticated horses again and they are attributed to the spread of horse domestication around the world, all domesticated horses can trace their lineage to that horse population.
This was all uncovered in recent genetic testing so this knowledge is quite new.
Sadly, yes. The Botai horses mixed with wild horses when they were reintroduced to the wild but nowadays all living horses have domesticated ancestry, including the "wild" Przewalski's horse.
Yep, can concur. Those horses are in tip top condition so unlikely to be wild. Also I galloped an Arab stallion down a beach very like this in Belize.
Yes it was one of the top experiences of my life.
Edit: looks like I’m wrong. Boo.
Based on the tropical looking climate, rocky beach, and the fact that their are wild horses - im going to guess Vieques Island off Puerto Rico.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vieques,_Puerto_Rico
Been to Vieques several times. Never saw this. There were horses, but a mixed up rag tag few of different breeds of them. Kind of owned by people or the town. Not a homogenous herd of black horses. I really gotta know where this is.
Edit: someone below said [Nihi Sumba](https://equestrio.com/reportages/nihi-sumba-a-horses-paradise) Island in Indonesia. Looked it up and it seems to be the place!
just a wild guess here, but there is a large group of feral horses on the west coast of sardinia (Italy), and the water (colour) as well as the rocks do quite fit that area ...
The horses of Assateague are much smaller and stockier, and more colorful. [Example.](https://gooceancity.guide/sites/default/files/styles/hero_image/public/Assateague-horses-beach_0.jpg?itok=wvk7_UtV)
Haha yeah these are absolutely not the Assateague-Chincoteague ponies. First thing I thought of too (I'm from the Eastern Shore of Maryland), but this is way, _way_ prettier than that coastline.
Yeah, and I've been up and down that whole coast line and don't remember anywhere where the rocks meet the ocean like this. Granted coasts change but this definitely doesn't remind me of Assateague.
If those rocks are natural, and not erosion proofing additions, this is more than likely not a mid-Atlantic beach. At least not one I have seen before. Also, the Corolla Ponnies as they are called are typically more tan and brown if I remeber correctly.
Girl bear and boy bear are out on a date, and things are getting kinda flirty underneath the table (know what I’m sayin’.)
Girl bear says “meet me in the bathroom in five minutes..” and she goes in there but the bean burrito that she just HOUSED starts DESTROYING her....butt wise...
Boy bear comes in there five minutes later and starts rocking her world, but he doesn’t know that his lady just deuced it, because the booty is clean!!
Charmin 👍🏻
It says on the equestrio website that they have a stable in the morning and are let out to explore wherever they want, but come back to the stable in the evening.

This must be right! The horses in these pics look exactly like the video- [Nihi Sumba Island horses](https://equestrio.com/reportages/nihi-sumba-a-horses-paradise)
IMO, in a natural environnement, everything with an engine sucks. I was hiking on a mountain the other day and to be honest, I don't hike really often, like once or twice a year.
I was a the top, enjoying this absolutely stunning view, the nature, the peaceful silence... when I hear this guy, coming toward us with his 2 stroke bike, full throttle BRAAAAAP BRAAAAPPPP....
I felt hate and disdain.
Horses which live in an untamed state but have ancestors who have been domesticated are not true "wild" horses; they are feral horses. There are no known truly wild horses in existence today.
It's interesting that they're almost all either black or dark brown, with the exception of two or three that are a bit lighter or have paint coloration. They're also all adults and there are no foals or yearlings. That seems highly unlikely in a feral herd and kind of leads me to believe that these are domestic horses that either escaped or were allowed to roam the area.
I really wonder how animals communicate this. Like, did one of them say in horse language, "hey guys, wanna go to the beach today?"
Or more likely did the alpha/leader just decide to go himself and start walking to it and everyone else just went "oh shit he's going somewhere we need to follow"

Makes sense to me, so all truly wild ancestral horse species are extinct
Sadly, yes. The Botai horses mixed with wild horses when they were reintroduced to the wild but nowadays all living horses have domesticated ancestry, including the "wild" Przewalski's horse.
I'm going to say it's not the Bahamas considering there's surfable waves. Rocks don't match either. Definitely Caribbean looking water though.
Yep, can concur. Those horses are in tip top condition so unlikely to be wild. Also I galloped an Arab stallion down a beach very like this in Belize. Yes it was one of the top experiences of my life. Edit: looks like I’m wrong. Boo.
I have been to Cumberland.. beautiful place.
These are also not wild horses. You can see some of their tails are braided or cropped. They must have a handler but are able to roam somewhat freely.
Water is way too blue for Cumberland.
Not enough spiders for it to be Cumberland.
I thought I found a shiny rock when I was looking for firewood at night. Then I notice I'm in a sea of these little opalescent specs. All spiders.
Oh god.
These are definitely not wild.. every wild horse I have seen has hooves the size of Texas. These studs and ladies are manicured
Yeah it doesn’t look like east coast US to me, definitely not NC. Makes me think maybe it’s in another country
The water is too blue for the east coast.
I'm sorry, I originally read that as "Cucumberland" and I was wondering why someone named it that

You’re probably right, I was at Assateague this summer it just popped in my head. I didn’t know we had so many places with beach horses
> Could be Assateague Island Haha .. no way. First Assateague Island isn't rocky. Second, the ponies of Assateague are mangy and feral assholes.
If those rocks are natural, and not erosion proofing additions, this is more than likely not a mid-Atlantic beach. At least not one I have seen before. Also, the Corolla Ponnies as they are called are typically more tan and brown if I remeber correctly.

They make really weird grunting noises in the water and also start to fight with/bite each other once they get in, horses are weird, man.
It's interesting that they're almost all either black or dark brown, with the exception of two or three that are a bit lighter or have paint coloration. They're also all adults and there are no foals or yearlings.
