Unmasking Stress in the Horse World: Freak Accidents
Friday May 24, 2024
Friday May 24, 2024
Today, we're diving into a multifaceted discussion on some pressing issues in the horse world, recorded live while running errands. The focus? A tragic incident at a dressage competition where a horse died after bolting and running into a stone wall.
We'll explore the underlying causes of such extreme behaviors, from training practices to environmental stressors, and why it's crucial to address them. This episode also touches on the role of the equestrian community, media, and organizations in either perpetuating or alleviating these issues. We'll discuss the importance of recognizing stress behaviors in horses, the impact of punishment-based training, and the need for a shift towards more compassionate and scientifically-informed practices.
