I guess as two legged creatures we don't really think much about how walking works, esp with more les. We have walk, run, jog but those all are just one leg in front of the other. I guess we do have some unusual gaits with skipping and such. It's obvious four legs give you more patterns to work with. I just didn't realize that for horses this was a genetic thing or that the three common gaits were unique patterns/footfalls in the first place.
