A mounted policeman sitting tall in the saddle has a elevated view of his surroundings while patrolling on his horse in the Metrocenter Mall, a popular meeting place in downtown Little Rock, the largest city in Arkansas, USA. The Little Rock Police Department established its mounted patrol in 1985. Equine cops receive more than 160 hours of training, including special tactics for pursuits on horseback. Policemen patrolling on horses are considered good for community relations by presenting a friendly rather than an unfavorable visibility.
