One study has tried to answer this question by investigating the asymmetry in horses in acute and long-lasting stress conditions. Stress was induced by switching the horses from group housing to single boxes and by starting a new training as acute stress (Marr et al. 2020). Asymmetry was then measured in the preferred forelimb and by observing the head-turning of the horses over time. Interestingly, overall head-turning preference shifted directly to the left upon single housing while the foreleg preference increased to the left after one week of single housing compared to measurements before the stress started (Marr et al. 2020). So, horses show a preference for the left side, and the strength of this preference can tell us about their emotional state. Observing the side preference of your horse in new situations might render helpful insights into how stressed your horse is e.g., a strong left-side preference might be indicative of a stressed horse.  … [Read more...] about How to Tell If Your Horse Is Stressed Out

It’s just this kind of absurdity to say that, and someone can sing along with that and feel the same way,” he explained. “And you get that in metal. Take an Iron Maiden song; you feel like you want to go riding along, horseback with Bruce Dickinson into a medieval battle. It’s very invigorating.  I guess that’s a healthy form of escapism — kind of raising your fist in the air, whereas punk rock gets so mired into what you can and can’t do. It’s more of when you’re in opposition to … [Read more...] about The Universal Truth of Clutch’s Neil Fallon
