Horses in the zoo serve as ambassadors of their species, showcasing the beauty, strength, and intelligence of these iconic animals. Each horse has its own personality, from playful and curious to calm and reserved. Their sleek coats, strong muscles, and expressive eyes make them a favorite among visitors.
Behind the scenes, the zookeepers provide horses with daily care, including grooming, hoof maintenance, and exercise. Special diets are tailored to meet their needs, often including hay, oats, and vitamin-enriched pellets. Enrichment activities like obstacle courses or grazing in open areas allow the horses to stay active and mentally stimulated. Educational programs often highlight the history of domesticated horses and their vital roles in agriculture, transportation, and sports throughout history.
