In this April 3, 2019, photo, a Nepalese army soldier bonds with a horse at the Nepal cavalry stable before the Ghode Jatra festival in Kathmandu, Nepal. The 'Ghode Jatra' is an annual horse festival celebrated on the Nepal Cavalry grounds in Kathmandu, which marks the defeat of a Hindu demon. The president of Nepal, diplomats, top officials and civilians all gather to watch 106 horses and more than 200 soldiers display warfare techniques which are believed to keep the demon away. The preparations of this event start three months prior, when a dedicated team of soldiers spend days bonding with the animals, by feeding and grooming the horses. (AP Photo/Niranjan Shrestha)
