Horse brothers have emotional reunion after spending years apart

Do you remember reuniting with someone you cared about?

For the longest time, we’ve always believed that having memories and cherishing people and things from the past are innately human traits.

That couldn’t be further from the truth. Animals cannot express their feelings verbally, but they can remember people and family members.

TikTok user @Wranglerbum showed how horses react to reunions.

The video started with Harley eagerly galloping to the edge of his enclosure.

His eyes were fixed on the camera, trailing the movements of something behind it.

Then, as the camera approached, a glimpse of another horse was caught in the frame.

The other horse, Koda, is Harley’s brother.

The two horses are siblings.

The specifics of their situation weren’t explained in the video, but the caption mentioned that the siblings haven’t seen each other for years – at least, until now.

The two horses greeted each other with excited sniffs, but what caught people’s hearts was the way Koda and Harley gently bumped their heads together.

The two horses seemed to exchange a quiet conversation without words but on their terms.

It was a unique way of saying, “I’ve missed you,” or “Where have you been?” or better yet, “I am here now. Don’t worry; I am here now.”

They held their heads together for quite some time until the excitement of the reunion caught up with them.

Koda neighed and stomped while Harley reached over the fence and kissed his brother.

The video quickly became viral.

The clip has been viewed over 300,000 times.

People also left thousands of comments expressing their feelings toward the tearjerker video.

“And people say animals don’t love! Looks like a loving bond to me,” said one of the commenters.

“That is so lovely. You can see that they remember,” said another. “Together now until the end. Thank you for doing this. Brings tears to eyes.”

According to experts, horses are much smarter than we think.

These animals understand words and maintain long-term bonds with humans and their family groups.

These relationships, experts said, can last for years or can span their entire lives.

Horses particularly remember the good that was done to them, including compassionate and kind caretakers.

They also recognize kin even when they are separated for years.

Their excellent memories help them not only to remember their loved ones but also help them retain problem-solving techniques. This is useful as a lot of horses are trained for various tasks back then.

This does not only prove that horses are smart, but they are also capable of forming bonds.

We hope these two siblings spend the rest of their lives together so they can continue growing up with their families.

This serves as a reminder that even if we argue about an animal’s ability to feel, we should always show them love and compassion as they can definitely understand them.
