What do horses say?

Horses communicate mostly by body language. They're actually pretty quiet animals. For example, when one horse is apologizing to another for getting on its nerves, it lowers its head and claps its teeth together. If a horse likes another horse, it will groom it with its teeth or stand nose-to-tail and switch flies off the other horse. Horses also neigh loudly if they are separated. They nicker softly when they notice someone or something that they like. An interesting fact is that many of the "typical horse" sounds used in movies are actually made by stallions during mating - they make those loud groaning noises that movie directors seem to think sound more like horses than actual horse sounds! Horses aren't vocal animals. They only do it, as mentioned above, in anguish, to comfort, to say "hello" or something like that.
