It depends what you mean by that. If you mean why do they fight each other, it is because in the wild they travel in herds and they need to have one lead mare and one lead stallion. The stallion protects the herd from danger and the mare disciplines the herd. They need to know who is boss for any dangerous situations. If you mean why do people ride horses in battle it is because horses are fast, loyal and smart.
