AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A very beautiful, clean skull
Completely intact.
a very impressive head!
60 cm long and 40 cm high!

The jaw and skull are detached from each other
A beautiful and striking object!

Horses live in social herds with a clear hierarchy. The family herd is usually led by an older, experienced mare. The herd typically consists of about twelve adult mares with their foals and a few stallions. Most of the immature stallion foals end up in the so-called stallion herds. They communicate in various ways, such as by making sounds like neighing, and also with body language. Many horses become unmanageable when kept in isolation.

Horses are prey animals with a strong fight-or-flight response. Their first reaction to a threat is usually to startle and then flee. When flight is impossible or when their young are threatened, they can defend themselves. Horses are usually very curious. When they are startled, they often take a moment to identify the cause of the unrest. They do not always flee if they do not perceive the cause of the fright as a threat.

Because it is a natural skull, it may have some natural minor cracks and crevices in both the skull and the horns. This is normal. Refer to photos.

The object is carefully packed and shipped
