The horse's first reaction to danger will be to run. When that is not possible they will fight, using their incredible strength to kick with the back hooves, strike with the front hooves and bite with large teeth and jaws so strong they could kill a human if hit on just the right spot.
Horses use either fight or flight when they feel threatend. Flight is when they gallop off (like you running away from somthing). If horses choose to use fight they will rear up, neighing and storting. They will kick out, buck, bite anything for them to win. Stallions usally fight against other stallions in order to claim "leader" of the herd. So horses defense are mainly hooves and their teeth. Hope I helped x
