Horse breeding

During breeding season which lasts from February until July, is where I learned the most out of all the things we do. Everything we did was a learning process for me. First we would collect the stallion, a stallion is a male horse. My job was to go get the stallion from the other barn. My first time I walked over I was biting at my fingernails. Stallions are a lot more aggressive, but once I got to him into the barn I felt relieved. I hooked the horse up to a post while I went to get the AV ready

Vaughn 6 Animals & Horse Training--Seriously, Socrates? Baylee Vaughn Reality and Human Existence Dr. 18 November 2016 In cross-examining Meletus in ?The Apology? Socrates draws an analogy between the training of horses and the moral education of the young. Seriously, a man having the intelligence that has been attributed to Socrates, used this analogy to sway members of the jury of his peers that would decide his guilt or innocence, and ultimately his life or death? To

Slaughtering for the Humanness of Horses The closing of slaughterhouses in the United States for horses has resulted in inhumane treatment and gross neglect for thousands of horses. Congressmen, lobbyists, activists, actors, and every day people have petitioned for these death traps to be destroyed, all for the benefit of the horse. The horse, who cannot speak, can only react to his surroundings. The ones to be benefited are the people who see this as cruel, and inhumane; to give them a clear

There are many different types of breeding, but two main types are selective and natural breeding. Both of these types of breddings are involved in something else and are nothing like each other. Each breeding causes something else, and is involved with another part of their environment. To begin, natural selection and artificial selection are drastically different. Natural selection is the process by which varied traits that increase survival and enable reproduction are passed down from one generation

Inbreeding Depression Inbreeding depression is a widely-studied topic in the fields of not only genetics, but as well as the fields of biology, ecology, etc. Directly speaking, inbreeding depression results in the loss or reduced expression of a trait due to the mating between two closely related organisms (Hartl 547). As of today, there are a plethora of studies and evidence that explain how and why inbreeding occurs within populations even though it is deleterious for the populations. However,

Hanoverian Horse represents today, one of the most prominent breeds of riding horses in the world. The stud-book comprises close to 19,000 active brood mares and 450 approved breeding stallions and covers the largest homogeneous breeding area in Europe (Hanoverian-gb.org.uk, 2017). Goodwin et al., (2008) believes that equine ethology, management, learning theory, skill, and talent combine to influence numerous outcomes in horse-rider interactions. The behavioural and learning processes in the horse are likely

Pottok Horse Country of Origin: Basque Country (France and Spain) The pottok, pronounced 'pot-ee-ok' (Basque: pottoka, ""little horse"), is a pony native to the Pyrenees of the Basque Country in France and Spain. Pyrenean Tarpan part of the Konik Breed Type: In Poland-Pottok; In France-Navarre Pony; In Spain-Asturian; In Portugal-Garrano. History The pottok's origins may lie as far back as 10,000 years ago. Ancient cave paintings in the area show pottok-like horses. They are thought to descend

Efficient and effective breeding is dependent on the performance of the Stallion and the mare. Adequate knowledge of the Stallion anatomy keeps one at good point to make good decision on selecting Stallion that will perform above average (Graffin, 2000, Morris & Allen, 2002) The records of the history of Stallion is a basic tool to understanding the past of the stallion and that makes it easier to evaluate its present. It should be an eye opener to the accurate age, breed type, sexual experience

Kassidy Schumann Ward English 1 Cloning Horses 17 November 2017 Cloning Horses Cloning horses is like opening a pandora box, that's better left closed. In the years to come cloning could become more common in the horse industry. As Ryan Bell states in the article “The Clone Age,” “When we clone we produce what we already have.”(Bell Clone Age) Breeders must remember; too much of a good thing is still a bad thing
