Fighting Wild Horse Gets Help From Friend During Scuffle
It’s time for another round of tag team wrestling—wild horses edition! This video features rare footage not only of two Konik horses throwing down and tussling with each other, but of a third horse charging in to his buddy’s aid (at least, we assume that they’re buddies!).
It makes for a totally gripping display of magnificent animals doing what they do best, and therefore is definitely worth the brief time it will take you to watch it. This video was shot in the Netherlands, at a nature reserve called Oostvaardersplassen. (This name is a real mouthful, although we’re guessing it’s much easier to pronounce if you’re actually from the Netherlands!).
The reserve is built on a polder—a type of low-lying land formation reclaimed from a sea or river and protected by a system of dikes—that was created in 1968 and declared as a Ramsar wetland in 1980. As mentioned earlier, the horses are Konik horses—a type of semi feral horse originating in Poland.
The transport of the horses from Poland to the Netherlands—and the creation of the protected wetland on which they now live—is all about human intervention, but everything else you’ll see in this video comes down to the horses themselves and is one hundred percent intervention free. And as much as we’d rather see horses frolicking playfully than involved in a fight, these horses are such beautiful creatures that it’s a joy to watch them—manes blowing majestically in the breeze around them—no matter what they’re doing.
Truth be told, this isn’t a particularly violent fight, so if you’re the type of person who’s squeamish about animal injuries (a category that we’re definitely included in!) you have nothing to fear by watching this. There’s even a charming little piece of music accompanying the action.
So if you’re hesitating before hitting the Play button, allow us to reassure you that have nothing to fear—but lots and lots to enjoy—by watching this video. It’s so rare to see truly up close footage of wild horses, which makes this particular video a definite keeper, worth bookmarking so you can return to it easily in the future, the next time you want to see beautiful animals in action. And if you have any <a href="https://rumble.com/v6y1ur-a-jalouse-female-wild-horse-shows-her-feelings..html" target="_blank">horse</a> loving friends, they’ll probably get a kick out of it too. This video may be fierce, but it’s also <a href="https://rumble.com/v6ra4l-this-is-so-cool.html" target="_blank">stunning</a>.

Powerful Wild Horses Engage In Fierce Scuffle With Each Other
Filmed in the Oostvaardersplassen, a nature reserve in the Netherlands, user 'BenW' was able to capture some impressive footage of wild Konik horses fighting with each other. With some of the shots in slow motion we are able to see just how strong and powerful these horses are. Amazing!
If you want to witness fierce scuffle between <a href="https://rumble.com/v46jyp-fight-for-leadership-between-two-wild-horses.html" target="_blank">wild horses</a>, including prancing, kicking, biting, and smelling, Oostvaardersplassen, the Netherlands, is the place to be. Footage shows Konik horses demonstrating their magnificent power and strength during a <a href="https://rumble.com/v3ibav-wild-horses-show-their-power..html" target="_blank">scuffle</a>. In addition, the video is filmed in slow motion which helps us get a better view at what is going on!
Horses are such beautiful creatures and have around 205 bones in their skeleton, which makes them very powerful creatures indeed! A male horse is called a stallion and a female horse is called a mare. If a horse is standing up, it doesn't mean it's awake, horses can sleep both standing and sitting, that's pretty impressive! Here is a fun fact, a group of horses will never all be sleeping, there is always one keeping watch!
Horses definitely have a lot of strength, as we can see from this video. Several scuffles break out between wild Konik horses in the Oostvaardersplassen, the Netherlands. This is certainly raw power at its finest. You don't want to be around a horse when they are mad, they have the ability to knock you over in an instant. What a cool video to watch. It is always nice to observe wildlife and the nature around us, so awesome!
Check out this video of horses exhibiting their crazy strength! Have you ever seen horses close up? Let us know in the comment section down below!

Time lapse captures longest blood moon eclipse of the century
On Friday, July 27th (2018) millions of people had the opportunity to see an event known as a “blood moon”. It was the longest lunar eclipse in this century, visible for most of the world. Only Greenland and North America couldn't watch it.
It is called a ‘blood moon” because of the red/ orange color that occurs when the full moon moves into the shadow of the earth cast by the sun. In this video you can see the different stages of the eclipse, mostly in time lapse.
