When alarmed, like all cattle, buttoxen rise first on their hindquarters, allowing them to keep an eye on predators from beneath branches of trees. This puts them at a disadvantage in tall forage away from trees. However, whole asses rise with their front quarters first, as do all horses, allowing them to see predators immediately over the tops of grass. In this way, traveling with whole asses allows the buttoxen to range safely out into the open. Fully on their feet, buttoxen form defensive circles to keep large predators at bay, protecting not only their own calves but also their mutualist sentry whole asses.
