When asked what animal I would hybridize with if given the chance, If I’m being honest no animal came to mind. I would prefer to stay human! However, If I had to absolutely choose with no ifs, ands, or buts, I’d choose to blend the strength, stamina, and agility of a horse with my already human qualities. Horses embody strength and power, plus I think they are just majestic to look at!
First of all, horses are beautiful creatures that are also extremely intelligent. Research has shown that horses have high levels of cognitive intelligence, including problem-solving, memory, and learning abilities. Even though I would keep my own human intellect, I wouldn’t hybridize with an animal that didn’t have any sort of high thinking ability! To add onto this, merging with a horse would enhance my physical abilities too. The ability to have speed, strength and stamina like a horse would come in handy in everyday life for me. Did you know that on average a domestic horse will normally achieve a running speed of around 30 miles per hour (mph). However, this doesn’t mean that this is their full speed, and with proper stamina training it’s possible for horses to obtain running speeds of 40 mph or more! How amazing is that?! Just thinking about the amount of gas money I would save makes this hybridization a definite win for me!
In terms of extent, I wouldn’t fully give up my humanity to hybridize with a horse. I’d just take the physical abilities that come with it such as speed and endurance—while keeping my human intellect and emotional depth. I wouldn’t want to lose my capacity for thought, creativity, or empathy; instead, I’d opt just for the physical qualities that a horse has. I also wouldn’t mind having some of their beautiful coats and flowing mane for hair as well as their strong leg muscles(albeit in a more human form). Overall, my hybridization would be a harmonious balance between power and sensitivity, a perfect mix of human and animal.
