ABSTRACT
Horses are not territorial. In the wild they live in home ranges, which can sometimes overlap considerably with those of other horse bands. A prime condition for this type of cohabitation is the availability of essential resources. These primarily include grazing areas, watering places, and sleeping areas, as well as possibilities for rolling and scratching, which can be located at varying distances from each other. In general, horses of a group visit these areas together because many activities are based on social facilitation.
