Yes!! A wild horse sees a human as equivalent to being a predator as that of a cougar or a wolf. A wild horse's reaction to being cornered by a human in a corral or chute is that of real fear that often turns into panic, attempting to run away or fight back if there's no place to run. This is because, in a feral horse's mind, these forward-facing two-legged animals are predators which, like all the other predators it has met, has the very real threat that it will be caught to be turned into dinner. The wild horse does not treat humans like another herbivore, no matter how people try to convince themselves (and the horse, of course), otherwise.
