Calling order

Most people that have horses know that they are very dominate creatures and there is only one alpha usually a female. She has an alpha male but it is the mare that is incharge not the stalion. On Happy Homestead CC is the one incharge then Mr. Jet (her son). They are the youngest horses there so those two are the top. Then it goes Pony he's been there longer but he is the oldest one and has been forced to step down to CC. Lastly there is the old guy Sunny he's old and weak but he hasn't been on the homestead as long as CC or Mr. Jet and Pony have been. Scientists think that horses have a "pecking order" because they are one of the smartest animals on the planet. Others think its because that's the way horses stay alive is they depend on the horse incharge for food, water, and to repopulate out there in the wild is a cruel place to live if you are alone. I think that it has a little to do with both. Tell me what you think
