What is a horse's ramal used for?
A lead rope is the rope or strap that attaches to the halter to lead and tie the horse.
Detailed explanation
A lead rope (also called a halter rope or tie rope) is the rope or strap that connects to the horse's halter to lead it by hand and tie it. Its usual length is about two meters. It is one of the basic handling elements: it must be resistant, comfortable to hold, and, ideally, have a quality snap hook. A fundamental safety rule is never to wrap it around your hand or body, and always tie with a quick-release safety knot.
