How Do Horses Sleep?

Horses also need sleep. But unlike human beings, they don't have to sleep at night nor for the whole night. Without disturbance, they can have their sleep at any time, at any place, and in any posture. They can have a sound sleep while standing, crouching or lying down. Usually, a horse sleeps eight or nine times per -day, for a total of six hours. But during the two hours before daybreak they sleep most soundly. During sleep, horses still can feel. If a fly lands on their bodies, they will swing their ears and shake their ears and hair to frighten it away. As. soon as their master calls them, they will immediately wake up. Horese never get up late
