Authored by an experienced ethologist, Horse Behaviour draws on
recent research in the field of equine ethology and applies it to
practical knowledge that can be used to improve the relationship
between horse and owner. The focus of the book is on interpreting
horse body language and signals to enhance understanding and the
bond between human and horse. The book maintains a scientific
approach throughout and discusses in detail the science behind
horse behaviour - including the evolutionary basis of behaviour,
the nervous system and behavioural development. The author
addresses behaviour in different situations and body states,
including how horses see, hear and smell and how these functions
relate to behaviour, also covered are mating and reproductive
behaviour and behaviour when feeding, playing and resting. The
author adopts a problem solving approach throughout and includes a
section on undesirable behaviours and how to manage them. This
practical and systematic book is an ideal guide for horse owners,
breeders, riders and trainers, and also for equine science
students, behaviourists and other equine para-professionals.
