Event coverage from the 2019 Equine Science Society Symposium in Asheville, North Carolina.
A research team investigated which flavorings horses preferred to make high-fiber rations more palatable. Here’s what they found.
Equine researchers recently found that calcium levels return to baseline within five days, suggesting that weekly furosemide administration in racehorses doesn’t lead to long-term calcium losses that might contribute to skeletal injuries.
A researcher found horses given the supplement startled less.
Owners who struggle to provide their horses with consistently good-quality forage might be able to improve feed digestibility and topline development by offering these horses a fortified feed, researchers find.
A researcher tested whether treating gastric ulcers as the cause of cribbing could reduce the behavior; omeprazole at a standard dose wasn’t useful for this purpose.
Renowned researcher Dr. Hilary Clayton gave a keynote presentation about equine locomotion at the 2019 Equine Science Society Symposium. Here’s our exclusive recap.
Because research into vortex wave circulation therapy is new, one researcher sought to understand how it might be helping horses, and she produced measurable results.
Stress not only leads to stereotypical behaviors and high cortisol (stress hormone) levels but also disrupts the horse’s gastrointestinal (GI) system and microbiome.
Daylight cycles influence physiology and behavior rhythms. And, as an Irish researcher recently reported, understanding how horses respond to these cycles can help you better manage your animals.
Studies have shown a lunar influence on humans and animals, from fertility levels to hormone fluctuations to immune response. More research into its effect on equine colic, however, needs to be done to make a strong association.
A researcher tested common oil-based palatants to find out which horses liked best. Here are her results.
A researcher investigated how long horses spent eating when offered varying amounts of soluble fiber. Her findings could help your horse avoid health and behavior issues, such as gastric ulcers and cribbing.
Horses in hot climates might not be as shade- and shelter-dependent as expected.
Discover useful information about an eventing horse’s fitness and ability by looking at these three measurements.
One researcher saw bone changes in racehorses in training who received a supplement containing marine-derived minerals.
A researcher shares how using recombinant equine gonadotropins can support advanced reproductive technologies in horses.
