Wild horses, like most horses sleep standing up. Foals take alot of naps laying down.
Yes, horses can sleep standing up due to a "stay apparatus" in their legs that allows them to lock their joints to remain upright. They do lie down for deeper sleep, but can nap while standing to quickly rest.
Wild horses sleep whereever the herd happens to be at that particular time. They do not sleep for long, unbroken periods like humans, but usually take short naps while remaining standing up. This allows them to react quickly if a threat is detected.
A mob of brumbies. In New Zealand they are called kaimanawa wild horses.
"Wild horses run free. Domesticated horses are tamer. Those are the only differences." those aren't the only differences. Domesticated horses eat very differently to wild horses, for example wild horses wouldn't eat chaff and pony nuts, wild horses would eat grass and berries. they also live very differently to one another... there are a few differences really
Most horses will sleep standing up, however, not all, so if they are in the wild, they may sleep on grass or the bare soil to sleep. If however the horse is domesticated and it sleeps lying down, then it's up to the owner what the horse sleeps on. this can include grass or sand in a paddock or field, or bedding in a stall which can be one of many materials including but not limited to: Straw, Pine Shavings, Pine pellets, shredded paper, paper pellets, hemp, flax, straw pellets and other materials. Keep in mind that all horses must lay down at some point to get REM sleep or they will not have gotten enough deep sleep, no matter if they are wild or not. Horses more or less 'nap' standing up.
