Yeah. I could have tried to help this mare. But it was too dangerous to go in her stall or be next to her without a wall or bars in between. I tried to devise safe ways to do it and I ended up just not being able to take the risk. It would have been wrong for me to do that to my kids. The most I was able to do was give her cookies and stand near her stall and show her that I wasn't a threat.

It's the look in their eyes that kills me. I can see the scared animal hiding in there. All the aggression and the STUFF traps them. But I could see her in there. I just couldn't get her out.
