Treading carefully, a cute young Foal makes it's way downhill at Port de la Bonaigua (Bonaigua Pass) which is situated 2,072 metres above sea level in the Pyrenees Mountain Range of Catalonia, Spain.
A foal is a young horse that is under a year old. When a foal is born it is very quickly able to stand up as well as to run - possibly in order to escape predators or to reach its mothers milk. A foal is usually weaned between 5 to 7 months old. In the wild, young foals have to be protected from predators especially when they...
... are first born, and they would be an easy target for some predators on the mountains.
Every animal that lives at this height in the mountain range must be well adapted to thinner air and be able to survive by its own instincts. These horses have been living in these mountains for hundreds of years and they can be quite shy animals. Young Foals grow so rapidly however that they should be able to protect themselves and run free on the mountainside within a couple of days.
