The love of a mother is unrivaled! This is true not only of caring mothers in the animal realm, but also of us humans. In this video, a mare demonstrates how to train her apprehensive foal to jump for the first time.
The colt was initially extremely reluctant to jump over that modest stone wall. He struggled to do it on his own because he was so unstable. His mother galloped back towards him just as he was about to give up to show him how to do it. They achieved their goal jointly after she taught him how to build momentum. Mama must be so pleased with her bright child.
