Why aren't horses ever portrayed in the media as the man's best friend? They're almost always present in medieval/old-themed stories, but they're almost always treated as nothing more than transport vehicles.
>>4877115Not true. There are folk songs from my country that shout out horses as best friends.
there should be a globally recognised holiday for horses and their friendship with mankind
Is not that there arent any, but they are few like War Horse, but to be honest the horse has always seemed more as a tool than a companion you can found a deity being a personification of almost any animal but horses? None that I can remember. Even Mongols that had a pretty horse oriented culture didnt think twice to cook them. >>4877136I can name one that is exclusivly about horse.
>>4877115Because it wouldn't be relatable to most people cause most niggas broke these days
>>4878928Why are you ignoring the west? Both Europe and America had very horse centered cultures yet didn't eat them
>>4878935Do you know how to read? Horse was mainly seemed as a tool in the west and it was not as relevant and the center of the culture as it were for the Mongols. You either don't know what is to have a culture centered or something or you are straight up stupid. Even with all there usage and even in war horses didnt got fame or the glamour that eve n nom European animals, like lions, got in the west culture.

>>4878996KEK. I mean this excepetion proves the rule. Minor importance a horse that is a god to horses, but I will concide there is/was a "horse God". And well I didnt know about it. Thank you.
>>4877115>Dances With Wolves>Neverending Story>Sleepy HollowIt's way more common than you think.
>>4877115Because narratively, like dogs in stories, a horse being the best friend means it probably dies horribly.
