Description
For those of us interested in animal welfare, it’s very useful to look at the animal’s situation from the ethological perspective. This angle helps generate ideas about how to best provide animals with an environment and context that create optimal conditions to help them thrive and be resilient and bounce back easily from unexpected and potentially scary events.
In this webinar, Karolina will discuss:
– what is ethology, and why is it a relevant subject for someone interested in horses?
– basic and applied ethology and the three most important perspectives
– the social environment
– epigenetics and weaning
– time budget and foraging
– environmental enrichment for horses
– preventing and addressing fear
– the defense cascade, triggers and learning
