Three riders of the Dutch Police
For many years, horses have been used in different countries
by the forces of law and order.

Gendarmes of the French Republican Guard on the Breton coast
They have several missions, depending on the country, such as intervening as environmental police to protect the fauna and flora in fragile or protected areas, as well as in national parks.

Four riders of the Canadian Mounted Police
To be present during official ceremonies, sports or cultural events.

But also for the rider and his mount.


On this video, we see a man attacking the horse. If police officers on foot are close by and have identified the attacker, he is immediately arrested and will be prosecuted...

To show also the risks for the rider, we can see on the end of this video, a fallen rider... The risk is great that the horse becomes, thereafter, uncontrollable...

Charge of English Police Riders
The charges are however always impressive.


But facing a compact mass, this one can be tricky as we can see on this video.
