In addition to the standard wild horses, a few special horses can be found in Hyrule: the [[Giant Horse]], the [[White Horse]], the [[Lord of the Mountain]], and the [[Stalhorse]]. The giant and white horses can be registered while the other two cannot. Other tameable animals like stags and bears can be ridden to the stables, but cannot be registered either. | In addition to the standard wild horses, a few special horses can be found in Hyrule: the [[Giant Horse]], the [[White Horse]], the [[Lord of the Mountain]], and the [[Stalhorse]].

Horses can be killed by the player or during combat, but unlike other animals, they drop no loot. Registered horses that have been killed can be revived by the [[Horse God Malanya]] at [[Malanya Spring]] in south [[Faron (Breath of the Wild)|Faron]] once unlocked. | Horses can be killed by the player or during combat, but unlike other animals, they drop no loot.

As shown in the picture, places with limited movement/light can be accessed with horses, like the [[Korok Forest]] and the [[Thyphlo Ruins]]. However, due to the way Link holds [[Torch (Breath of the Wild)|torches]], bringing horses to places like the [[Lost Woods]] can start fires on the tall grass, necessitating travel by foot; regardless, horses are not subject to the maze of the Lost Woods, so they will respond to being called and come close to Link. | |||
Other places are off-limits to horses. Due to environmental impediments, horses cannot be taken to or summoned in either [[Death Mountain (Breath of the Wild)|Death Mountain]] or the [[Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo Desert]]. As such, neither of these locations have [[Stable]]s. | |||
