    A filly is considered a mare at the age of 5. This is because a filly is a young female horse that is less than 4 years old.

This is a common age milestone in the development of horses, marking the transition from adolescence to adulthood.

    Imagine that you are riding your horse in the countryside. He loses his shoe. What do you do?

    • A.

      Dismount and lead your horse back to the stables

    • B.

      Carry on riding

    • C.

      Panic!

    Correct Answer
    A. Dismount and lead your horse back to the stables
    Explanation
    If your horse loses its shoe while riding in the countryside, it is important to dismount and lead your horse back to the stables. Continuing to ride without a shoe can cause discomfort and potential injury to the horse. It is necessary to take care of the horse's well-being and ensure its safety by returning to the stables where the shoe can be replaced. Panicking would not be a productive response in this situation and carrying on riding without addressing the issue would be negligent.
