In a herd the stallion will protect the mares and foals from any danger.

(other horses and preditors)

The stallion will either fight the intrudor or call out to the mares and they will run from the danger.

in the wild a stallion will usually wait 2 hours after the foal is born. if the foal is not up and walking within that two hour period the stallion will usually kill the foal.

He does not want to put his herd in danger by having a sick or slow foal slow down the herd. And he doesn't want it to suffer by being attacked by a different animal.
