Officials say the animal's death was the result of 'wild horse behavior.'
A wild horse in North Carolina died instantaneously while mating on a North Carolina beach, a nonprofit said.The nonprofit said around 5 p.m. local time, witnesses saw a stallion aggressively chasing her and trying to breed her. That was when Caroline fell to the ground and died.
A necropsy revealed the wild horse had broken her neck. No other injuries or abnormalities were found internally. "Her injury was in line with the behavior reported and while it is a devastating loss, it was the result of natural wild horse behavior." the nonprofit said in a Facebook post. "Caroline’s death should serve as yet another reminder of just how truly wild and dangerous these horses are - especially when hormones are involved," the post continued.
