How to change/replace Animations?

[BigBat]

I don't like the deer/Elk animations and as someone who uses them as mounts the lack of jumping is irritating, the deer in skyrim are very fond of space travel, the turning on them is horrible,etc. I wanna replace the Deer/Elk animation with the Horse animations, If I'm correct the animations is linked with the model's skeleton, was wondering what tools I need to accomplish this. If successful I plan on making a reindeer mount/follower.

that's a skyrim/fnis problem, you can't just add a new animation for a behavior that dose not exist.

can't be done, but however it may be possible to re paint weight a deer mesh onto a horse skeleton to make a "horse that looks like a deer"

sort of but not quite, animations are made to work for a certain skeleton but the behavior files & game programing are a major factor as well.
