Horse Cosplays as AT-AT

This horse will have the best costume on Halloween for sure!

Michael Corrie of Mike's Tiny Shop created this amazing AT-AT Walker costume for a Clydesdale named Moana.

Corrie said that he was approached by Moana's owner, Brianna Dickmon-Fry, about the project:

"About eight months ago, she asked if I could make this costume, as I've been making prop replicas and costumes for about five years," Corrie says. He agreed, "not realizing what it took to costume a 2,000-pound Clydesdale.
He posted his work on Facebook. While many praised his effort, several wonder whether doing such a thing was animal cruelty.
"Best thing about draft horses," Mike writes, "They (do) not care. Her comfort and safety were paramount in all of this. Early on, when we tested the components ... if she had not liked them we would have abandoned the project."

The horse seemingly doesn't care therefore it's okay to dress them up in anything you want. Her comfort and safety was ->paramount<-.

I think this concern was addressed, as per the description above: "Best thing about draft horses," Mike writes, "They (do) not care. Her comfort and safety were paramount in all of this. Early on, when we tested the components ... if she had not liked them we would have abandoned the project"

I love this. I've also met quite a few draft horses, and they seemed quite comfortable with almost anything. They kind of reminded me of giant, lumbering, kind of not so smart dogs that just wanted love.
