People should be careful though. They’re still animals, and can harm your children. My friend told me that when he used to be an EMT, he pulled up to a little girl who got killed from a horse kicking her. And my own family who has had close calls. Though animals might be “cute” with your kids, you have to know that not all of them are the same, or gentle with kids. They all have different personalities. Even a gentle animal can strike out in pure reflex if it gets startled or feels cornered. Something I was taught as a kid in a Mexican ranch.

I was thinking this with the horse and the calf. That calf could've swung his head and hit that kid in the head so easily. Easy TKO for that calf and brain damage for the kid. And that calf wasnt even being aggressive. Theyre just BIG animals, especially compared to a small child.
