Mimicry is the evolutionary adaptation whereby a species copies the appearance of another more threatening species. Well known examples include non-venomous snakes like the king snake imitating the colorful banding pattern of the venomous coral snake.
Cats puff up and arch their backs when they are near a dog because they look bigger and more threatning. They don't look scared or weak, and they look bigger and tougher. They hiss and spit because it is their way of saying, "If you come near, I'll bite your head off." If you ever see a cat who looks like this, DON'T go near it unless you want to be attacked. They are very scared and defensive, and need some time alone to chill out and regain their dignity.
Ususally, if the predator startles the horse by running up to it from behind or jumping out an area the horse did not see the predator at first, the horse's first response is to run.Although horses may still run away even if they saw the predator a safe distance away, the horse may stand it's ground and/or fight if it is approached.If a horse chooses to fight, they have multiple ways to do so:Rear up (Standing on it's hind legs) A horse can appear taller and more threatning. A horse can kick with it's front legs if the predator get's too close.Stomp. (Quickly bringing one or both front hooves onto the ground or the predator) A horse can use it's own weight as a weapon when dealing with predators such as wild cats or dogs. Horses can kill or at least badly injure smaller predators by stomping or trampling on them.Charge. (Running towards the predator) Horses can use their own speed as a way to fight rather than flee. Horses may use this method against smaller predators or animals they may percive threatning such as domestic dogs and sometimes humans.Bite (Bringing one's teeth or jaws to the predator) Horses are least likely to use this form of attack because they would have to bring their faces close enough to the predator. Horse bites usually only inflict pain and rarely are considered "deadly". However, Africa's four zebra species and the Tibetan kiang are much more dangerous and have a habit of not letting go until they do kill or wound very badly. (This why the zebra and kiang have never been domesticated).Kick (Swiftly swinging and extending both hind feet into the air) Horses typically perfer being able to see where predators may be, but wolves tend to attack larger prey from behind. Horses aren't very vulnerable to wolves because unlike most prey wolves deal with, horses can defend their hindquaters with powerful kicks. Enough kicks from a horse can send the message "You aren't eating me tonight."
