: "The young mare bit the older gelding in front of her because the rider was briefly inattentive. That kick hit the rider on her shin. Nothing bad happened, I didn’t break a leg but it really hurt. Riding demands 100% attention, but is it always possible for us humans?

The two horses live together in a herd. The older one is her teacher and usually is a very kind and patients character. This time, when the young mare bit him, he immediately answered with a kick. The kick hit the rider right on her shin. Nothing broke and she gave her best to try and stay calm whilst still sitting on the horse. Then she got down, checked everything and rode back home for another 3 and a half hours. It's fair to say that riders are strong, capable people."
