Once when my daughter took her horse on a trail in the sierra nevada, we came upon a cattle guard the trail crossed; the cattle guard is the thing that looks like a bunch of railroad rails suspended across a pit and yes the cattle refuse to cross it. This one had a steel plate welded across so that horses could cross safely; no matter, when the horse saw the cattle guard his eyes got really big and he planted his feet as if to say "no way, I'm not crossing that thing". I walked ahead of him and showed him how to cross safely, at which point he walked carefully and calmly across. No big deal on the return trip.
