Will wild horses jump wooden fences?

On the wiki it says:

It is possible to jump over wooden fences while riding a horse.

However, will a wild horse also jump over a fence (1.5 blocks)? If so, what can I use instead to contain them?


Solution 1:

No, they won't. That jump can only be controlled by you once the horse is tamed by pressing the space button while riding it. But if you want to be 100% sure a horse won't leave any place you can still use a lead and tie the horse to a fence.
