Equus caballus robustus is also nominated at the same page. Jay 💬 16:25, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello,
The image shown in the article under "sleep patterns" appears to be AI generated - it looks like there's a brazier or something attached to the back of the standing horse's head, and the fur on the one lying down looks off. Can anyone double check this?
If this is AI generated, is this acceptable for use on Wikipedia? I'm new at editing here so I'm not 100% clear on what's considered acceptable. Thanks ZacharyBuilds (talk) 03:15, 1 April 2025 (UTC)

In WikiCommons, it says the article is "retouched", and shows the original. [1] Looks like there was another horse directly behind the main subject horse which was 'erased', but the rest looks the same. Derivative works are often acceptable. I have no answer for your question about AI-generated images.    ▶ I am Grorp ◀  03:23, 1 April 2025 (UTC) I don't know what you mean by "brazier", but the standing horse is wearing a large bell around its neck.    ▶ I am Grorp ◀  03:27, 1 April 2025 (UTC)
I see it now - I guess I've just never seen a horse with a bell before. I think I used the wrong term to refer to it, but I thought the bell was something like this. [2] ZacharyBuilds (talk) 05:38, 1 April 2025 (UTC)

The part about horses learning to be by themselves and just accept humans that are only companions is unequivocally false and the reference is very outdated and wrong so I would just move that sentence under the behavior headline. Horses, 100% need at least one other animal- a horse or a donkey or a mule, but a horse living in isolation  is pretty much torture. Google it!! I can get some references if you need though but this statement is false! 2600:4040:278E:EB00:A9D8:7540:18F6:3577 (talk) 00:03, 13 June 2025 (UTC)

So, I ride a horse named Keisha and she is a Fjord/Arabian. She is an unusual breed of horse.

 Not done: Not a reliable source; looks like a blog attached to a promotional site. The statement is already referenced by another source as well, so sourcing is not a concern. Seercat3160 (talk) 00:38, 14 November 2025 (UTC)
