Horses may be huge, but that doesn't stop them from rolling around on their backs like animals more than half their size. And when The Humane Society of the United States shared an adorable clip of a group of lucky horses engaging in some outdoor fun, we couldn't help but share the fun!
The group of happy animals are seen playing in a blue water trough and then running about. A few of the horses seem so excited, they start rolling around on the dirt. Just watch how cute they look in action!
Similar behavior is fairly typical of dogs and cats, but it's quite entertaining to see animals as big as horses do the same. And apparently it happens more often than you'd think. For example, we've seen horses roll around together after a snowstorm and some other ones rolling around on a sandy beach.
What makes the below moment even sweeter is that these beautiful horses were all rescued from the Pregnant Mare Urine (PMU) industry, which makes an estrogen-therapy drug using the urine of female horses. PETA explains, "About 750,000 mares are impregnated each year for the sole purpose of collecting their estrogen-rich urine. Tied in small stalls, unable to move either backwards, forwards, or sideways or lie down comfortably, they stand with sacks strapped to their groins for months on end."
