As human beings, we can achieve happiness by perfecting our nature, according to Aristotle. That means accepting and refining who we really are on the inside. And that sounds great for every living thing, not just people. However, this horse is too busy fooling around and forgot to go to philosophy class.
This theatrical horse is called Jingang, and his ambitions go beyond being a mere steed. It seems that he does not like others to ride him, like any good horse, and he does everything possible to avoid doing his job. Jingang pretends to “die” in a very dramatic way. It’s silly and funny. And it is proof that some animals prefer to laze around before earning their bread (or carrots in this case).
Not all horses like to work hard…

Most of us don’t think much of horses, so it’s easy to forget what incredible creatures they are.

Did you know that horses can run within hours of their birth? It’s a fascinating thing. Imagine if humans could do that.

The next time you see a horse “laughing”, it’s actually a technique to improve their sense of smell (called flehmen) and help them understand if a smell is good or bad.

Also, horses are not color-blind as people think, but they see purple and violet better than green and yellow.
It’s really adorable, but naughty.
