mare]] ]] A mare (from an old Germanic word, possibly derived from Gaulish ) is a Female Horse . The word is also an etymological root of Marshal (originally Latin ''marescalcus'' 'horse servant', or Stable Hand ). Mares are considered easier to handle than male horses, which are called Stallion s or, after castration, Gelding s. The word can also be used for other female Equine animals. A broodmare is a mare used for breeding. SOURCES AND REFERENCES |
