In the wild, horses spend most of their time grazing. They eat small amounts constantly. But if a horse is stable-kept it depends on what his/her routine is. :)
Horses exercise frequently because that is what they do in the wild. In the wild they spend most of their time moving around for many reasons. Because horses are often kept in more confined spaces in captivity they move around. Some horses do this as a sign of boredom when in a stable.
Horses are grazers. They spend the majority of their lives grazing (eating grass). They will spend 3 to 4 hours dozing and sleeping. Wild horses travel over large areas always looking for new places where the grass is as yet uneaten. This is why domestic horses always do better fed several times a day instead of just one. Wild horses know where to find water sources and will remember where the water is even if they wander far from it. Domestic horses will drink 30-50 gallons of water in hot weather.
Swimming and caring for its young (the male does, if it has any).
Im guessing you are referring to wild horses? No wild horses do not migrate, In fact wild horses move around a "track" on a 24hour schedule, Meaning they are in the same exact place at the same time every day of the year.
Wild horses spend most of their time grazing on grass and other vegetation, as well as socializing with other members of their herd. They also groom themselves and each other, and may engage in playful behaviors or take naps throughout the day.
If you think about it, they are large... Horses usually spend 14 hours a day grazing and eat A LOT.
A wild horse, just like domestic horses, eat around 3% to 5% of their body weight per day.
In the wild, horses spend about 17 hours grazing everyday. However, if they are stabled, then they cannot graze, unless they are turned out and it is unlikely they are turned out for at least 17 hours (unless they live on 24/7 turnout, but im talking about stabled horses). Stabled horses are usually fed 3 or 4 meals a day, with hay throughout the day. The hay is very important as it keeps the digestive system going throughout the day and, for this reason, horses must have some kind of forage, whether is it hay, grass or haylage. Horses can suffer from gastric ulcers if they do not have the chance to eat forage. Hope I've helped!
Some wild horses are tamed as people re introduce them into the wild as other wild horses just are free
