Disneyland Park’s Main Street, U.S.A., recently became the site of an unexpected cleanup after a horse “took a spill.” The iconic equines, a beloved part of Disneyland Resort’s charm, are well-trained and cared for, but even they have their moments.
Redditor u/thebazookaman captured the incident in a photo, showing a less-than-magical moment along the parade route. The image, which featured Sleeping Beauty Castle in the background, highlighted the mishap that quickly became the talk of Disney Parks social media.
“Awesome view of the castle today,” the Redditor captioned, juxtaposing the beauty of the castle with the less glamorous scene in the foreground.

The post inspired a flood of responses from Disney Parks fans, who chimed in with their own encounters with Disneyland Resort’s equine cast members.
“I swear that’s got to be the horse’s spot,” commented u/PaulClarkLoadLetter. “We had to stop once and got a front row (back side?) view of poop coming out. My son clocked it as we knew he would. ‘Poopie.'”
“I can smell this pic,” u/RockNRoll85 joked.
Thankfully, Disneyland Resort’s cast members are always ready for such situations. Equipped with shovels, buckets, and a commitment to cleanliness, they ensure Main Street, U.S.A., is restored to its picturesque state within minutes of similar spills.

The horses of Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park are more than just workers—they’re an integral part of the park’s history and charm. These animals live at the state-of-the-art Circle D Ranch in Norco, California. Opened in 2017, the ranch provides top-tier care for these cherished animals, ensuring they remain happy and healthy.
Walt Disney World Resort’s equine cast members have their own dedicated home at the Tri-Circle-D Ranch. Both facilities underscore Disney’s commitment to animal care and ensure that their horses continue to bring guests joy.
