Well there are several reasons for it. Some foals are sick and won't survive but the mother won't harm her baby, but another horse that senses the foals problem may chase the mother off and kill the foal to prevent suffering. Stallions will kill very young foals to cause a mare to go back into heat immediately, and some horses are extremely territorial and will kill anything , foals included to defend it's space.
