That's what I'm imagining - but no one is replying to my queries above to confirm or correct my assumption.I imagine that they took a rope, tied a knot to make a loop but tied a slipknot instead of a bowline and put this loop round the pony's neck and tied it to a tree and left it there as a prank.
Stupid, but without intending any harm to the animal.
The animal pulls against the rope, the rope gets tighter, the animal panics and pulls harder...
