They almost always sleep standing up, ready for instant flight from danger. They have few defences, though stallions rear & fight one another with their fore-hooves.
If they lie down it is almost always a mare giving birth, and she will rise & encourage the foal to it's feet as soon as she can. She eats the placenta (afterbirth) for energy and to hide traces from preditors.
