For the observation and interpretation activity to be successful, we must, in advance, define some interpretative questions that help us to be more alert and attentive to the social behaviors of animals, the hierarchies within the group, the activities they carry out and the way in which animals horses interact.

Regarding the herd:

• How many horses are there?
• How many females and males are present?
• Try to identify the stallion;
• Try to identify the female leader;
• Try to identify the juveniles and puppies of the year;
• What colors are present in the group? Will they all be Garranos?
• Is the group united or dispersed?
• Are there other herds nearby?
• Are there any horses that seem apart from the herd? If so, what is the attitude of others towards him?

Regarding activities:

• What activities are happening (eating, resting, playing)?
• What are they eating in particular?
• Are you all doing the same thing?
• Are they alert or relaxed?
• Are there animals sleeping, if so, is there one nearby watching?
• Are there horses looking out for each other? If so, which part of the horse is being “cared for”? What is the facial expression?
• Can you detect “friends”, that is, 2 horses that spend more time together?
• Are there any insects nearby that are bothering them? If so, what is the attitude of the horses?

Look for horses interacting:

• Pay attention to the ears and tail to interpret interactions and communications;
• Try to identify the most curious one (usually the one who comes closest and investigates);
• Try to identify individual personalities;
• Try to identify which horse is lower in the hierarchy.
