- A horse's reaction to a sudden fright is to buck or bolt.
- This is the horse’s evolutionary response to having animals with claws jump on its back

- A horse will buck from a sharp, sudden pain.
- A loose saddle pulled across withers may pinch the skin and cause a sudden, sharp pain with a consequent reaction.
