There is, besides, a number of wild horses, of a chestnut colour; which cannot be tamed, though they are catched when foals. These horses differ nothing from the common kind in shape, but are the most watchful creatures alive. One of them waits always on the heights, to give warning to the rest; and, upon the least approach of danger, runs to the herd, making all the noise it can; upon which all of them fly away, like so many deer … . Notwithstanding this wonderful sagacity, these animals are often surprised by the Kalmucks; who ride in among them, well mounted on swift horses, and kill them with broad lances.
