Horses is the 28th episode of the first season of the Zoboomafoo television series.

Synopsis[]

A young Belgian filly follows a trail of oats that Chris unwittingly left in his wake as he and Martin carried food supplies to Animal Junction. The appearance of the filly and then her mother gets Zoboo, Chris and Martin talking about horsetails, hooves and different breeds of horses. After Fuzz and her mom leave for parts unknown, Jackie tells the Kratts that she's helping horses by cleaning up their meadow during a ride on her horse, Sheba. Sometimes horses think that garbage, like Styrofoam cups, is food, so it's important to keep garbage where it belongs... in a garbage can where animals can't get at it. Then, Chris and Martin go horseback riding at different speeds before returning to the Junction. When they get back, they then meet a zebra mom and her filly.

Animals[]

Note: Featured animals are in bold, mystery animals are also underlined.

Trivia[]

  • Because of the fact that this (like all episodes of Zoboomafoo) is 24 minutes long, not everything about horses and similar equine creatures is explained.
  • Like all the animals featured in the series, the neighing and whinnying sound used for Fuzz and her mother are stock sound effects and not their actual voices.
  • If you pause at just the right moment during the Kratts' flashback of the miniature pony crossing, you can clearly see a human hand leading the ponies at the crossing.
  • The footage of Zoboo counting his fingers and toes is reused from the episode Giants; however, the footage is played in its entirety.
  • Deleted footage from the episode is seen during the closing song.
