I wonder, its because they are angry or maybe even tired, it depends if there eyes are droopy or full of energy.
A slight slant backward may mean the horse is listening to something behind him. If you are on the horse and the ears are slanted back, he is listening to you. However, a slant backwards is different from pinning the ears or laying them back against his head. pinning the ears means the horse is angry or threatened in some way. A horse can be very dangerous at this point and you had better know how to read his communication and know how to respond or you may get kicked or bitten.
Not always. the horse could also be listening but if they are flat pinned down to their head they are mad
The are annoyed.
what does a horse feel when it put its ears flat
horses often show their feelings by moving their ears, if the ears are forward: the horse is interested or exited in something. if the ears are slanted back or twitching: the horse is relaxed and listening to what is around him. if the ears are flat back: the horse is angry.
When a horse flattens his ears back, whether at a person or another aminal, means he is frightened or angry, and should never be ignored. This is a huge warning sign and if not heeded could result in serious injury to some thing that gets in its way.
A horse can rotate its ears as far as 180 degrees.
Do you mean after the ears? then it is called the bridle path. you would clip it as long as the horse's ears.
when a horse slants it's ears backwards, it generally means he/she is not happy. The horse is usually angry or reluctant
The horse is angry.

Lean is a word for thin or to stand at a slant. The horse appeared to lean to be in good health. Bob was concerned about the lean in the walls of the barn.
