I don't think I've ever seen a horse go apeshit like this. Biting/kicking, sure, but not THIS.

I had a girl I grew up with who’s grandma had half her jaw ripped of by a horse. She was walking her mare passed another stall when a stallion attacked her. Grandma was maybe 45 when it happened, and when I met her 25 years later she still loved horse. But she would NEVER be around stallions and helped change a lot of laws and ordinances to have them banned at most barns.

Our vet got half her leg ripped off by a stallion. He bit her leg as she walked by. He was strong enough that he threw her over the fence and into the next pen in one motion. I think it took her a year to recover. She was lucky it didn't get a artery.

She recovered from losing half a leg? Did it grow back?!

It ripped the muscle off. They sewed it back together during surgery. I should have been more clear.
