They take care of themselves, defend themselves and as if that were not enough, they save each other. Horses are very homely animals who like to respect themselves and live in harmony. And although there is always a leader in the group they usually behave harmoniously. Horses are brave and determined when they want to do something in particular. They like to live in packs, ride in packs and be together. Their protective instinct is always active and it is both a defense mechanism, since when they feel there is danger then that instinct is activated strongly. Their instinct works as a kind of alarm that tells them that they must run away and flee the place. Ranchers evacuate horses at a burning ranch Why a horse saves its family? Depending on the breed, horses have their behavior. Some are very active and others quieter. But horses are generally very sociable and given to humans. Your internal alarms are active 24 hours a day in case there is any danger. That is one of the reasons why horses sleep on their feet. Although if they feel too comfortable they will lie on the floor to rest for a while. These animals are interesting and amazing. They have an incredible charisma and a powerful force that inspired man to create a phrase attributed to cars: horsepower. This term owes its origin to the speed and strength with which the horses run. For these reasons, reference is still made today to the fact that a car has a quantity of horsepower. “This thoroughbred returns to the fire to save its family. Not all heroes wear capes, ”says a Twitter message about the horse’s video. This equine played his life and fortunately achieved his mission and both he and his family are safe. A horse saves its family from a fire A viral fact “heroic horse saves its family” Shortly after this video was posted on Twitter it went viral, people began to share it quickly. In that way the feat of the purebred black color that saves its family was made known. His attitude was highly praised by many people. This was one of the comments found on the network: “No words necessary. #HeroicHorse”, wrote actor Mark Hamill (famous for playing Luke Skywalker in the popular Star Wars saga) on his Twitter account. A heroic horse Internet users gave the black horse the name “Hero.” The fact that a horse saves his family from being burned to death was shocking. So some called him a hero without a cape. But with all the courage that is needed to leave behind self-concern and enter the thick smoke to rescue others. A worthy example of imitating by humans. These animals demonstrate their commitment to their family and the rest of the herd. They are literally there in good times and bad times. Their emotional bond is such that heroic acts such as these amaze humanity. No doubt animals give us more and better example than many people. Horse reaction The reaction of this horse is amazing. He set aside his need to go after its family. He risked his life to rescue two other specimens, a foal between them, and run to the place where the humans were. This action is a gesture of love and commitment to his herd mates. It also represents an example worthy of fellowship, love, dedication and commitment to the other. Maybe that’s why this news impacts people. As many humans, they may have lost that instinct to help others. The best news of the day Without a doubt this horse was the news of the day and its action will be perpetual since animals are great masters of love and compassion.

That is why they used them so much in the militia for years. Currently horses are used for equestrian sport and some specimens to help farm workers in their daily work. The horses provide a great example of brotherhood and friendship that must be imitated. In addition to being loyal and communicative.

Horses with traumas and their proper approach
Nov17Horses with traumas and their proper approach Horses are wonderful mammalian animals that have accompanied man since ancient times. Through time these animals have been domesticated, so much so that they are considered a faithful friend of man. However, horses are sometimes victims of abuse or experience a negative experience that marks them. For this reason we see the importance of treating the issue of Horses with trauma and its proper approach. There are situations where horses may be left with some trauma, which is manifested by their altered behavior. This usually occurs because they are victims of abuse, or some traumatic event in the environment where the animal develops. Among the most common places where horses can suffer trauma are the following: in the stable, in the transport truck or in a competition. Now, for the correct approach of these horses, it is recommended to look for the ideal person to evaluate and perform the respective therapy. In this case, the most recommended is an equine ethologist who specializes in horse behavior. Taking into account how valuable it is to have a healthy horse, it is worth taking the proper approach to horses with traumas. Horses with traumas Horses as sentient beings Animals are living beings therefore they feel and suffer. Therefore, they can be victims of trauma just like human beings. The reaction of a horse to a complex situation is the feeling of discomfort, fatigue and fear. In effect, the horse may have negative consequences in its behavior. Among the events that usually alter and consequently scare an equine are lightning and thunder during a storm, a fall, an accident, abuse by their caregivers. Consequently we will have a horse with behavioral disorders, so the horse will show signs of anxiety. Unfortunately in the equine world there are many horses with traumas … Therefore, it is recommended that those in the equine industry have a highly trained team with a vocation to work with these noble animals such as horses. Horses with traumas Signs indicating horses with traumas We must pay special attention to a horse that shows unusual behavior. Since when a horse is affected by some situation it begins to isolate itself from the herd and avoids having contact with human beings. One way for this animal to show that something is wrong in its behavior is that it becomes aggressive, so it usually stands on its hind legs and neighs. Another of the signs visible to the human eye is that it becomes sullen and avoids contact. If you notice that the horses show these signs, you have to pay attention since you may be traumatized. The horse behaves in this way as a way to protect itself and not to be harmed. If these behaviors persist, it is best to contact a specialist in equine ethology. The specialist must evaluate the animal and perform the respective treatment and therapy. Horse on both legs and whinnying How to deal with horses with trauma? As we have mentioned before, the most appropriate approach is the approach of the horse by an expert in equine ethology. However, people who are close to the horse should have empathy and know how to handle the situation. It usually happens that when a horse has traumas or psychosomatic illnesses they do not respond to the orders of their owners, riders or trainers. In these cases, the ethologist should be asked for recommendations. Although one of the factors that positively influence is love, patience and empathy with horses with traumas. If the people who are close to the horse put the above mentioned into practice, it is very likely that the animal’s confidence will be regained. When the equine begins to give in, he will try to set his rules and that’s when you have to say who is the leader of the herd. As we all know, horses are sociable animals, affectionate and with great intelligence. However, horses with traumas manifest fear in their unusual behavior, so they act from their survival instinct. The role of the expert in equine ethology is fundamental in cases where these situations of horses with traumas occur. A film that alludes to this theme is “The Horse Whisperer”. It clearly shows the situation of a horse victim of an accident and its recovery at the hands of a natural dressage expert. The horses and their surroundings Horses are animals that since their existence have lived in free spaces, even today some races that live in the wild. Traumas can manifest themselves because they are kept locked in stables. These animals merit a space to move freely. They are usually tied for hours, so they end up depressed and consequently become a horse with traumas. It should be noted that the horse is a gregarious animal that needs this relationship to live Therefore, if the respective measures are not taken, horses with traumas or psychosomatic diseases will be taken.Legislation regarding animal abuse The issue of laws regarding the criminalization of people who mistreat animals is very much in vogue in some countries. Although this is mainly focused on domestic animals such as dogs and cats, it is to be broader because it must cover the abuse of horses in competitions or bullfights. These animals deserve respectful treatment regardless of the environment where they are. Many human beings share day to day with horses, therefore they know, understand and to some extent try to think like these. So an affectionate bond is generated and full of empathy with the noble horses. In summary The horses with traumas must be put in the hands of an expert in equine ethology. Also follow the recommendations of this to make the recovery faster. On the other hand, the charisma and empathy of the people surrounding the horses is essential for these noble animals. The invitation is to people who deal with horses is to make them with love, respect, empathy and patience. Horses cannot verbally express what they feel, this is one more reason to treat these animals in the best way.

From a horse girl to a non-horse boy, a letter
Nov16Definitely a relationship between a horse girl and a non-horse boy is very complex. Sometimes the boy can feel displaced by horses … And sometimes it is true: P That is why we have a friend named Marcella Gruchalak who wrote a very special letter. It is a letter for the non-horse boys, so that they understand how to conquer and how to retain a horse girl. The reality is that horses and boys do not have to compete, because if there is true love they will know how to live together. It is a letter that in game tone but that tells many truths for which the boy must be prepared … Some tips for you, boy of no horse, so that you can conquer the love of your life, a horse girl. A letter to laugh and reflect. We hope you enjoy it. A Letter to the Non-Horse Guy Trying to Date a Horse Girl By: Marcella Gruchalak Non-horse gentlemen, the following information may come as a shock to you, but here’s what you really need to know about dating a horse girl. Being a horse-crazed female is not a hobby and riding is not just some activity we participate in on the weekends. Riding horses is a lifestyle and consumes every second of our already busy lives. We spend each day doing barn chores such as feeding, watering and throwing hay. Our horses are usually the first thing we think about when we wake up and the last thing we think about before we go to bed. What this boils down to is that we have minimal time for anything or anyone else. As cowgirls, we’re content with spending our Friday nights at the barn and our weekends away at horse shows. We try our hardest to find a mate that also has interest in horses, but let’s be real — most cowboys aren’t the type we want to wrangle in and take home to mama. And if a cowboy is the type you take home to mama, chances are he’s already married. This leaves us cowgirls in the predicament of remaining single or dating a non-horse fella. Husband helping his horse wife – al letter Non-horse gentlemen, the struggle is real. It’s easier for us to remain single, so if you are sought out by a cowgirl, consider yourself something special. Our lifestyle is an incredibly difficult one to get accustomed to and we know how much y’all like to resist the change. It’s amazing how reluctant some men are to jump boots deep into our way of life. Fellas, I’m going to be frank, if you’re pursued by a cowgirl, you’re going to get roped into the lifestyle in one aspect — or all of it. You may think you have a choice, but I am here to tell you, you do not. Love change us… And will change you thought this letter You can tell us a million and one times, “I’m not doing anything horse related,” but we know that you’re lying. The moment that phrase, or one like it, comes out of your mouth, we’re laughing at you on the inside. You may not know you’re lying, but inside our pretty little heads, our wheels are turning on how we can change your mind. Go ahead and tell us that you’re not cleaning stalls, throwing hay, feeding, riding horses or anything in between, but know that you can’t hold out on us forever. As cowgirls, we’re tough, determined and maybe a hair crazy. So we may let you win at first, but ultimately we’ll get exactly what we want. Joke for ride a horse – a letter to understand We’ll start you gentlemen off with REALLY easy tasks such as just coming to the barn for an evening. We don’t want to scare you away and we’ll have you thinking there’s no harm in the task. You don’t have to do anything horse related, you just have to show up. Sounds fair. The truth is, we’re easing you into your new lifestyle and this is an easy way to get you hooked. Just show up to the barn and talk to us while we’re doing all the work. We want to hang out with you, but to be honest, date night for the first few dates is about to be hanging out in the barn while you watch us clean stalls and ride our horses. Trust me when I say you’ll earn bonus points if you bring us food from the closest fast food restaurant. More advices in the letter Do you want to read more about this funny letter?

Evidence of probiotic efficiency in horses is weak
Nov16A study published by Kauter, A., Epping, L., Semmler, T. and other authors called “The gut microbiome of horses: current research on equine enteral microbiota and future perspectives. Anim microbiome” found that the evidence supporting the Probiotic use in horses is weak. Many times they cite beneficial relationships in food products with the purpose of promoting a brand. However, and as this study demonstrates, in many cases the evidence is not enough. We must be attentive because just as the evidence can be weak. We can be induced to give products that are really harmful to our horse. Horse food marketing must be careful to show real results and we must be informed consumers. We leave this article published by horsetalkz Evidence of probiotic efficiency in horses is weak Evidence of probiotic efficiency in horses is weak. This is according to a just-published review, despite several supposed clinical applications, including acute enterocolitis and diarrhea in foals. A German review team set out to examine current research on the gut microbiome in horses. They noted that products classified as probiotics had reached the commercial market, not only for humans but also for horses. Experts defined a probiotic as “live strains of strictly selected microorganisms which, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host”. A horse feeding with no probiotics In the United States, probiotics can either be classified as a drug needed to gain approval from the Food and Drug Administration, or as a feed supplement “generally regarded as safe” based on information provided by the producers, which removes the need for FDA approval. In the European Union, probiotics are regarded as feed additives and gut flora stabilizers for healthy animals. The EU applies very strict regulations for products labeled as probiotics. Producers need to prove product identity, safety and efficacy to a scientific committee. So far, bacteria such as Lactobacillus, Enterococcus, Bacillus, Streptococcus and Bifidobacterium are considered as putative beneficial probiotics for horses, Anne Kauter and her colleagues reported in their review, published in the journal Animal Microbiome. “Probiotics should be able to survive the extreme gastric environment, have an antimicrobial property against pathogens and adhere to mucus and epithelial cells,” they said. Probiotics for horses are designed to reach and establish themselves in the large colon, where many diseases occur. What was the results? The review team noted that a recent study investigated the effects of multi-strain probiotics on the bacterial microbiota of foals during and after administration. Limited changes were found concerning the relative abundance of bacterial families, with an enrichment of Lactobacillus in the probiotic group only at week six. “Yet, evidence of probiotic efficiency in horses is weak despite several putative clinical applications. This applications including acute enterocolitis, diarrhea in foals, as well as fecal sand clearance,” they wrote. The authors noted that understanding the complex interactions of microbial communities. This microbial including bacteria, archaea, parasites, viruses and fungi of the gut with states of either health or disease is still an expanding research field in both human and veterinary medicine. Gut disorders and their consequences are among the most important diseases of domesticated horses. But current gaps of knowledge hinder adequate progress in terms of disease prevention and microbiome-based interventions. “Current literature on enteral microbiomes mirrors vast data and knowledge imbalance. With only a few studies tackling archaea, viruses and eukaryotes compared with those addressing the bacterial components.” Sources: Original work: Evidence of probiotic efficiency in horses is weak, review team says Published in: https://www.horsetalk.co.nz If you want to know more about Gustavo Mirabal or Legal Word, go to: https://gustavomirabal.es https://gustavomirabalcastro.online/ https://twitter.com/gustavomirabalc https://twitter.com/gmirabalcastro2 https://gustavomirabal.ch/ https://www.pinterest.com/gustavomirabalcastro/ https://gustavomirabalcastro2.wordpress.com/acerca-de/ TAGS: Nutritionprobiotics
Canadian showjumping Nicole W tests positive for drugs
Nov14One of the most important things in sports is that they are done on equal terms. That is why doping institutions. Today we will show you the news of a Canadian showjumping that is in the process of doping in a Pan American Games. A Canadian showjumping rider who competed at the Pan-American Games in Peru in August has tested positive for a metabolic byproduct of cocaine. Nicole Walker has been provisionally suspended by the FEI as a consequence. Walker was a member of the fourth-placed Canadian showjumping team and also finished fourth with Falco Van Spieveld in the individual final at the games. The sample was taken on August 7, the day of the team final in Lima. What drug was detected in the Canadian Showjumper? It tested positive for benzoylecgonine, a metabolite of cocaine. Benzoylecgonin is a prohibited substance under the FEI’s anti-doping rules for human athletes. The FEI says Canadian showjumping Walker has the option to request a preliminary hearing. This will be before the FEI Tribunal to apply for the lifting of the provisional suspension. Disqualification of the athlete is a separate proceeding. That is part of the results management process dealt with by Panam Sports, which organises the Pan-American Games. Canadian Showjumper Nicole Walker The Canadian showjumping has exercised her right to request a hearing before the Panam Sports Disciplinary Commission. Once the Disciplinary Commission has made a decision on the disqualification of the athlete, and team Canada’s final placing, the FEI will be in a position to make any necessary reallocation of the Olympic quota. Tokyo 2020 Olympic quota places were available to the three best-ranked teams from Groups D (North America) and/or E (Central & South America) at the Pan-American Games this year, excluding the teams already qualified. The three teams that earned qualification in Peru were Brazil, Mexico and Canada. The FEI said in a statement it would not comment further on the case at this time. That is in order to maintain the integrity of the ongoing legal process. We will be following the case for more information Original work:https://www.horsetalk.co.nz/2019/11/13/rider-pan-am-games-metabolite-cocaine/ Originally published in: https://www.horsetalk.co.nz For more information about horses and equestrian sports visit us at the following links: https://twitter.com/gustavomirabalc https://twitter.com/gmirabalcastro2 https://gustavomirabal.ae/ https://gustavomirabal.ch/ https://www.pinterest.com/gustavomirabalcastro/ https://gustavomirabalcastro.online/english https://gustavomirabalcastro2.wordpress.com/acerca-de/

Equine melanoma. Detection and treatment.
Nov13Today we will discuss an important issue for equine health. And is that the health and welfare of horses is one of the priorities for Gustavo Mirabal Castro. That is why today we will talk about equine melanoma. Equine melanoma is one of the diseases that is left untreated given its slow progress. However, with the appropriate treatments, it can be eliminated and / or delayed. That is why today we will give you information and some advice for its detection and treatment. Some treatments are not available in Spain, however, perhaps this type of information may arouse interest and begin to be considered. We will learn more about equine melanoma thanks to the information in the article by J. Luis Mtnz Arquero published in “Dressage and horses”. Based on your article and some additional information we have developed this post. We hope you like it and we promote these initiatives. [Wikipedia] Equine MelanomaWatch this video on YouTube What is equine melanoma? They are tumors that usually appear as firm black masses, in the form of a potato, in areas without hair or with little body hair, as in the maslo. When most people hear the term “melanoma,” they think of skin cancer caused by excessive sun exposure. In horses, however, melanomas are associated with the color of the layer, specifically the color of the layered layer. Up to 80% percent of thrush horses have melanomas. The gene responsible for thrush color is a dominant gene that causes progressive depigmentation of hair. These horses can be born of any color: black, brown, even paint, but colored hairs are replaced by white hairs as the horse ages. The first signs of “gray hair” are found around the eyes or the nose in foals and can be seen on the day they are born. An aged gray horse could be called white, but true white horses have pink skin. A thrush will have black skin and dark eyes. Equine melanoma in perianal area In which areas of the horse does equine melanoma commonly develop? In most cases, equine melanomas appear alone in the perianal region. This is quite common in horses older than 6 years. Equine melanoma can also appear in the parotid region, in the penis and in the periocular area. On less common occasions, equine melanoma appears in animals less than 4 years old in the trunk and limb areas Is equine melanoma malignant or benign? Equine melanoma is a type of tumor, usually benign, that occurs more frequently in layered horses. Despite this there are elements that help us differentiate malignant equine from benign melanomas. When melanoma occurs multiplely in the same area of the horse, tumors are considered malignant. A malignant melanoma can behave in different ways. The 3 behaviors that can have malignant equine melanomas can be:Slow progressive growth without metastasis. This is the most difficult to identify and therefore runs the risk of letting it grow too much. Slow progressive growth over years and subsequent rapid growth with metastasis. This change allows us to take action but requires horse monitoring and careful observation. Malignant growth since its appearance. This is usually treated quickly because it arouses suspicion. These melanomas can be very aggressive and you have to take their treatment very seriously.Occasionally, these melanomas can reach large size and if they are found in the perianal region, they can cause problems with defecation and urination Detail of equine melanoma in perianal area How does an equine melanoma develop? Most equine melanomas have slow growth for years without metastases (it spreads throughout the body). This is why melanomas are generally considered benign in horses. Some melanomas that have been static for years may suddenly grow and metastasize. A smaller percentage of melanomas will show rapid growth and metastasis from the beginning. Melanomas found in horses that are not thrush are generally considered highly malignant. Metastasis can occur in regional lymph nodes near the original tumor or in body cavities or internal organs (lungs, liver or spleen). Melanomas have also been found in muscles, spine, heart and guttural pockets. Many horses do not show clinical signs of internal metastasis, but lameness, cramping or neurological symptoms can occur. Any dark mass in a thrush horse is presumed to be an equine melanoma and most are diagnosed only by appearance. A biopsy will confirm the diagnosis. It can indicate how malignant that particular tumor is, although it is not necessarily predictive of tumor behavior or metastasis. Internal tumors can be found with ultrasound or rectal palpation. While there is currently nothing we can do to prevent the development of melanoma, there are several treatment options available. Traditionally, equine melanoma has been left alone due to its slow growth and lack of pain or clinical signs. On the other hand, early treatment can slow or stop the progression. Equine melanoma Veterinary solutions to equine melanoma Small tumors are easily removed surgically. Depending on the location of the horse’s mass and temperament, they can often be removed with foot sedation instead of general anesthesia. The use of surgical lasers have been very successful in removing an equine melanoma, even when the tumors are slightly larger. Complete excision will be curative for an individual tumor, but new tumors may arise later. Below we can see a video of a laser surgery to treat equine melanoma Equine MelanomaWatch this video on YouTube Very large tumors or those in difficult places may require extensive surgery and often cannot be completely removed. Cimetidine that is an antihistamine has immunomodulatory effects. This has been reported to reduce the size and number of tumors. Long-term therapy (at least three months) is required and clinical efficacy has not been repeatable in all studies. The intratumoral injection of chemotherapeutic agents, such as cisplatin, may be effective for small masses. However, there are still health and safety problems for the horse. There are even risks for the owner and the treating veterinarian when these medications are used. The hope of the melanoma vaccine Recently, a vaccine was developed for the treatment of melanoma in dogs. Early studies are proving promising for use in horses. This vaccine creates an immune response against melanoma cells, causing the body to fight against tumors. The vaccine is given four times at two week intervals. If the horse responds, the vaccine is given every six months. At the moment I don’t know anyone in Spain who treats equine melanomas with this vaccine. For this reason I cannot tell you about my personal experience. All the data that I have collected here is easy and can be found in any veterinary book. I am sure that in a few years treatments with the melanoma vaccine will be very common in Spain and other countries. And it is that the thrush color remains the most abundant in the Iberian equine horse. From here we take care of spreading this technological advance so that it is adopted in a massive way. The treatment of equine melanoma through the vaccine will result in the welfare of the horse and its performance. We hope that many veterinarians will be able to see in the future not only a business but also a way to fulfill their professional work better. Support us in our campaign.

The eyes of the horse. How to detect stress in horses?
Nov12Some may wonder how to detect stress in horses. A recent scientific study determined that the horse’s eyes can help us detect signs of stress. Specifically the look of the horse is the key to discover it. So now you can know if your horse is stressed just by looking him in the eye, but let’s analyze a little more. Usually the owners of these animals, trainers and riders learn to know them and know when they feel anxious. But stress can begin silently and not exactly the horse must be kicking the wind. Scientists have discovered that the eyelids of horses are key when you want to know if an equine is in a moment of stress. The novelty of this discovery is that it is not something invasive and therefore the animal will not suffer. On the contrary, it implies a detailed observation to know if the horse has stress or not. Do Horses' Eyes Reveal Their Stress?Watch this video on YouTube The reflex eyes of the soul … and stress They say that the eyes are the reflection of the soul and that through them you can know how a person is … In this sense, it has been discovered that this technique works with horses. Although the study shows the importance of eyelid contractions as indicators of stress. And that is what makes this study interesting and novel, since you only need to see the horses carefully. Although there are other methods to find out how are heart rate monitors or blood cortisol levels. So just look at the horse and look at the way he moves his eyelids. Definitely the eyes of the horses are the key to detect stress in horses “With humans, we already know the flickering changes when we are under pressure. Some studies have shown that we blink more when we are disturbed, while others found that we blink less. ” Katrina Merkies, professor at the Ontario Agricultural College of the University of Guelph (Canada). The teacher adds to her explanation that this same method wanted to apply it to the horses to know if it worked … “We wanted to see if the rates of flickering of the horses also varied,” Professor Merkies.The study of horse eyes and how to detect stress in horses For this phase of the study the researchers took 33 horses of different races as a sample. First phase of the study to find out how to detect stress in horses Once all the horses were in the enclosure they were subjected to slightly stressful scenarios. The horses were from three riding class facilities in eastern Ontario, Canada. One of the ways to generate discomfort or restlessness was by taking away their food for a few minutes. “During the food restriction, the eyelid contractions increased from two to six contractions per minute” statements from the project researchers. Second Phase – Provoke the horse Another phase of the study included throwing a ball in front of a horse to try to scare him. That way provoke a motivated reaction to stress and fright. The idea was to quantify the bodily reactions. This includes the reaction of the eyes of the horses. Third Phase – Isolation Later, in a next phase, they separated a horse from the others … So I could see them visually but I wasn’t with them for a few minutes. Last phase – Observation Finally, the scientists removed the food from the horse for three minutes just at lunchtime while their companions could start feeding. This whole process is in videos because each phase of the investigation was recorded. In the same way they were attentive to the movements of their body to know how they express themselves. The eyes of the horse – Detect stress in horses Results of the study They observed that there were changes in the movement of their eyes and ears, the inclination of the head and the general restlessness. As they moved away the food they discovered that seeing others eating and not eating them, it is stressful. “The withdrawal of food was something new, so it is likely that this was the cause for the most stressed,” said Professor Merkies. The analyzes and the discovery After all these exercises, the videos were analyzed and this is the result: At the most distressing moment for the horses they noticed that the animals blinked less but moved the upper eyelids more. during the most distressing moment, they noticed that the animals blinked less but moved the upper eyelids more. Generally, horses often blink several times a day. However, that flicker decreased to an average of five blinks per minute during stress compared to eight or nine times per minute when they were relaxed. When they had no food, they got stressed The scientists determined that at times when they were not eating and saw the other horses feed … Eyelid contractions increased on average from two contractions per minute to six contractions per minute. It should be noted that with the other tests the scientists did not notice the same behavior. So it can be concluded that one of the things that causes more stress in horses is not eating. In fact, with the other stress tests the behavior was not the same as when it came to food restriction. “There is no technique that tells us everything, but this is another tool that we can use to better understand our animals,” Merkies concluded. The horse’s behavior and body language The horse is an animal that communicates with its body. Your body language is what shows how this animal feels. The way he moves his ears, how he walks, and even his movements with his legs tell us something. And the blinking … The eyes of the horses are keys to know how they feel. Therefore, the eyes are key to detect stress. This speaks of whether they are happy or sad, if they are hungry or thirsty, if they are anxious or not, etc. The way the horse behaves is the one that tells us if there are diseases or do not feel well. These animals are very intelligent and always make themselves understood. They are generally very calm, playful and do not like confinement. In addition to not eating on time, the fact of being locked away for a long time, without anyone riding or exercising them, causes them anxiety and can become bothersome. If that happens then the mammal begins to whinny, kick and become somewhat aggressive. However, if you are taken out of the barn for a walk, brush or walk, your attitude will surely change. What Does That Mean? Subtle Signs of Stress in Your HorseWatch this video on YouTube Looks that kill, a language the horses handle The eyes of the horse The looks are another language. And although the horse is clean and beautiful if his eyes are sad something happens. They cannot express themselves with words but their eyes certainly say a lot. Now they also reflect whether you are stressed or not. In any case, it is enough to have direct and close contact with the animal, look at it face to face and read its body language. Many times when a horse is a victim of abuse his body tells us that there is something wrong with him … His attitude and the horse’s eyes speak to us. They see open wounds and flies sniffing around them, their head is down all the time, they have trouble walking and they certainly show sadness. And as we mentioned, his eyes also tell us that there is loneliness, pain and even cataracts. Yes, this disease also happens to horses. When a horse has these symptoms, it is because they do not take good care of it, do not eat enough or simply beat it, subject it and enslave it to work. The saddest thing about this is that whoever suffers is the animal, its owner can get a few reais per ride that gives tourists more the horse is the one who pays for the broken dishes. And his body is an agent that reveals the physical and emotional state of the horse. Let’s learn to read your language! Let us denounce animal abuse because it not only damages it but prevents it from getting the best out of it Sources https://www.gustavomirabal.es/caballos/los-ojos-estres-caballos-gustavo-mirabal/ For more information visit: www.gustavomirabal.es/ https://gustavomirabal.ae/ https://gustavomirabal.ch/ https://www.pinterest.es/pin/642114859350359734/ https://www.pinterest.com/gustavomirabalcastro/ https://www.facebook.com/492119137931001/posts/545764639233117/ https://www.wattpad.com/story/129398546-g-c-farm-gustavo-mirabal-castro-en-venezuela https://gustavomirabalcastro.online/ https://gustavomirabalcastro2.wordpress.com/acerca-de/ TAGS: eyesstress
Pony see, pony do: Study finds horses adept at learning by seeing
Nov12A horse opening a box after observing a human. Equines are able to learn how to perform tasks by watching their human handlers, a new study from Germany suggests. They in the study from the University of Nürtingen Geislingen learned how to open a feed box by watching a human do it. The researchers set up a task that involved pressing a button to open a box containing pieces of carrot and apple. The horses were shown various techniques for pressing the button to open the box by their owners. Some owners used their head to press the button, some their hand, some their foot, and some used their head and hand together. It is already known that horses can learn by watching a demonstrator, but the question was, would the horses follow the particular demonstrated technique, or come up with their own? While almost all seemed to understand the connection between the pressing the button and the box opening. They learned from watching their owner. Some followed the same technique while others found their own methods by trial and error. For example, if the person used their foot to press the button, some horses would use a hoof. But others would use their head, or a mixture of head and hoof. Methods of opening the box were demonstrated by a human. About the Study The study has been published in the journal Animal Cognition. In the control group, which received no demonstration at all, a few horses managed to solve the problem on their own. A few horses showing an ability to “think outside the box”. “This means we have to be very careful about what we let our horses see. We don’t want them to learn how to open gates, doors, or even feed boxes. Of course, however careful we are, there’s no guarantee that a few of them won’t work it out for themselves” For more info visit: https://www.horsetalk.co.nz/2019/11/11/horses-learning-seeing/ https://gustavomirabalcastro.online/english
