The benefits are not only felt by horse owners in short supply of money; recently in Europe, the supply of meat from traditional sources, such as cattle, sheep and pigs has dwindled due to epidemics in the herds, such as bovine spongiform encephalopathy  or "mad cow" disease, as well as hoof and mouth disease.

There is a big number of special needs population in the US that don’t get much help with therapy or can’t find any therapy that works. A new therapy that works to help these people is equine therapy. Equine therapy helps the special needs population by helping the special needs, the horses, and the money that goes to equine therapy. Equine therapy has been around since 1946 and was introduced as horseback riding from the Ancient Greek (“What is Equestrian therapy?”). Equine therapy “has become a recreation and a motivational activity for the disabled while at the same time a therapy for them” (“What is Equestrian therapy?”).

The horse (Equus ferus caballus)[2][3] is one of two extant subspecies of Equus ferus. It is an odd-toed ungulate mammal belonging to the taxonomic family Equidae. The horse has evolved over the past 45 to 55 million years from a small multi-toed creature, Eohippus, into the large, single-toed animal of today. Humans began to domesticate horses around 4000 BC, and their domestication is believed to have been widespread by 3000 BC. Horses in the subspecies caballus are domesticated, although some domesticated populations live in the wild as feral horses. These feral populations are not true wild horses, as this term is used to describe horses that have never been domesticated, such as the endangered Przewalski's horse, a separate subspecies, and the only remaining true wild horse. There is an extensive, specialized vocabulary used to describe equine-related concepts, covering everything from anatomy to life stages, size, colors, markings, breeds, locomotion, and behavior.

Throughout my life, we have bought and sold many horses--too many to count, and I have also sent my own fair share to the slaughter plants. As a young teen I had a horse we called Whino, he was a great horse for me when I was learning to ride and wanting to follow Dad around. There comes a time in a horse’s life when they are not capable of doing what they once were or that they become sore or crippled to lead a life with meaning or comfort. I was raised to understand life and death and that one will follow the other. I knew when we had

Introduction Following the economic recession of 2008, a survey of more than 10,000 horse owners appears to suggest recovery of the industry. Results showed that 70.6% of respondents owned or managed the same number of horses they did in 2014, indicating an increase in overall industry stability.

Especially if that job involves herding cattle and other herd animals. They are also good at pulling heavy material, working for police force, racing, rodeo, and being therapy horses. The reason why the American Quarter Horse is great for herding animals is because they have a type of sense called “cow sense”. Cow sense is a reflection of what a horses natural talent is when it becomes when focusing on working cattle. Horses just seem to be able to predict what a group of cows is going to do before the rider knows. This makes the Quarter Horse popular on farms and ranches. Quarter Horses are also used in the police force because they are very good at keeping crowds contained or running down a suspect that is on foot. Most farmers and ranchers use heavy farm equipment for building/ hauling but in the earlier days people would use horses to pull big loads of wood or steel. They used horses because they were more than capable of pulling such weight. On the other hand, therapy horses are used for the exact opposite. Therapy Quarter Horses are used mostly to help people calm themselves when needed and believe me Quarter Horses are very good at relieving stress and helping you calm down. Therapy Quarter Horses make great companions and if you have ever owned a horse you know that it is very easily for you to get attached to the horse as well as the horse getting attached to

Cortney Earney SAE-Horse History and Training 05/06/2016 4th Block Horses are from the taxonomic group Equidae. If the horse is in the subspecies Caballus they are consider to be domesticated. People began to domesticate horses around 4000 B.C. They domesticated them meaning that they trained them to become closely associated with humans, they would be completely different from what they were in the wild (unapproachable). The only remaining true wild horse, that has never been domesticated is close to becoming extinct. Which happens to be the Przewalski horse. Most horses have a life span of 25-30 years and can have gestation period on average of 320-370 days.
