Wild horses are very adept at finding what they need including water. Horses have a keen sense of smell and can smell a water source from several miles away. Once they know where to get water they will remember the location. They are also very good at knowing when the water supply is tainted. Usually one sniff or small sip and they will move on.

How does horses get water?

There are actually quite a few different ways that horses get their water and a few different variables. I have horses and their out on pasture so we have water tanks for them that we keep full. If a horse is in a stable they would most likely have a bucket in their stall that was kept full at all times. There are also automatic waterers where a horse is trained to step of a pedal of sorts and it fills up a dish for them to drink out of. Wild horses on the other hand are going to drink out of lakes, ponds, creeks, rivers.. pretty much any water supply that they can get to. Its very important for horses to have access to water at all times.
