Horses have two main instincts when they are faced with a situation that they find frightening.

One is fright. This when the horse runs away from the threat, by either spooking or simply getting away from the thing scaring it.

The other is fight. This is when the horse stays and tackles the thing it is frightened of head on. It often bucks or rears when it sees what is scaring it.
