Wenn ich mich nicht irre, glaube ich, dass hier nicht so viele Szenen (wenn einige) gibt es, um zwei MΓ€nnchen, die gegen einander fΓΌr eine Weibchen kΓ€mpfen. Zumindest nicht so realistisch dargestellt

I wonder did it whinny like a horse
Getting swiped at by an animal that has claws like a lions
But neighs like a horse would be so confusing

That's actually an interesting question.
I can imagine that it must have looked quite terrifying to see a horse-like creature with claws like that charging towards one.

Hopefully it wasn't as fast as a horse due to its size and way it runs
Imagine taming one and running with one down the streets like what cops do sometimes with horses

I can imagine that it would look awesome and terrifying at the same time if there would exist mounted police who patrol on moropus instead on horseback.
