Horse Behavior Webcast Series|
Summary: Understanding the categories of horse behavior will help you know whether your horse is behaving normally or not. The following categories of horse behavior will be discussed: ingestive (eating and drinking), eliminative, investigative, social facilitation, care giving and care seeking, sexual, aggressive, contactual and play. By understanding the primary categories of horse behaviors, you can become more in tune with your horse and provide your horse a safer and happier environment. |

Title: Horse Behavior Categories|
Summary: Perception and communication in horses will be discussed including auditory (neigh, nicker, roar, snort), visual (ears, tail, nostrils) and olfactory (feces, urine, breath and equine appeasing pheromone) behaviors. Also, the role of flehmen (lip curl) in the special sense perceived in the vomeronasal organ (sense of smell) will be explained. |

Title: Understanding Horse Body Language|
Summary: Horses which have some freedom to act like a horse usually exhibit fewer behavioral "problems" and perform more happily and consistently than horses that are managed in ways that ignore their natural behavior patterns. This webcast discusses the natural behavior patterns of horses and ways to modify your horse management practices so that your horse has opportunities to perform these natural behaviors. |
