Wild Horse
In wild horse herds is the stallion or mare more likely to be the dominant one?
Bascially in most wild horse herds you see is it possible for a female to rule over a male?
Also in domesticated herds as well =].
According to a study of the wild horses of Assateague, "The stallion is not always the most dominant animal. Several stallions may come and go through the females’ lifetimes. When young males are two to three years old, they leave their natal bands and form bachelor groups until they are ready to capture young females dispersing from their own natal bands or challenge and depose a harem stallion. Because dominance correlates with age and tenure, new stallions are often subordinate to some of the mares in the harem band."

According to wikipedia "Feral and wild horse herds are usually made up of several separate small bands who share a given territory. Each band is led by a mare who is dominant in the hierarchy, called the "dominant mare," the "lead mare" or the "boss mare." The band contains additional mares, their foals, and immature horses of both sexes. There is usually a single "herd" or "lead" stallion, though occasionally a few less-dominant males may remain on the fringes of the group." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_behavior
http://www.agselect.com/ED/Features.cfm?&DID=11&NewID=37 states:
"Every wild horse herd has a dominant stallion and a dominant mare. The dominant stallion is usually at least six years old, and sires the offspring of the herd. When the herd moves, this stallion brings up the rear and protects the group from other stallions. The dominant mare leads the herd into grazing, as well as to water and shelter."
