This means the foal is scared of the horse that is coming near it. This is their way of saying, "please don't hurt me!" It does not neccesarily mean the foal is scared.

When do horses loose their milk teeth?
If it is a young horse, they will lose baby teeth at about 2-3 years of age and the adult teeth will replace them. If it is an old horse, the teeth are much looser and the gums are not as strong, so an aging horse may start to lose teeth at anywhere from 15-30 years of age. In this case, a change of diet needs to be made. Feed your senior horse softer foods and grains that do not need a lot of chewing.
How do you calculate a cow's age by her teeth?
The teeth used for determining age is the front row of incisors (cows do not have a top row of teeth). When a calf is born they usually only have one pair of middle incisors (these will appear smaller). At 1-2 years they will grow their second set of permanent incisors. 3-4 years they will gain their third set of permanent incisors, then finally the corner pair of incisors. Between the age of 5-6 the middle teeth and the corner teeth will start to show wear by levelling out. Then at 10 and over all eight teeth will begin to show wear.
