Why the horse sleeps standing
The horse may stand asleep - the information may be known to almost all of us. But did all the other creatures sleep while sitting or sleeping, why did the horse sleep or stand? -
The horse usually sleeps for self-defense and sleeps. Are you surprised to hear this? There is nothing to be surprised.
Horse body is very heavy. The back straight is straight. So it takes a lot more time to get them upset than other animals. So if someone suddenly comes in the sitting while attacking, then it takes a lot of time to stand them, it is too late to run. The attacker could attack the horse until then. That's why the horses stand standing

Due to the special powers of the feet, the knees can stand on their knees while sleeping, because they do not fall asleep.
The horse can spend a long time standing without any fatigue. So they could fall asleep while standing alone.
But the horse does not sleep most of the time, but this does not mean that they can not sleep or sleep. Occasionally sleeping while sitting for a rest of feet.
