Potential behavioural indicators of affective state in stabled horses

Research output: Other contribution to conferenceAbstractpeer-review

Abstract

Current research into equine welfare has demonstrated the need for reliable objective behavioural indicators of affective state, however, has yielded mixed results regarding behaviours suited for industry use and are open to subjectivity. Ten horses of varying breed,sex, age and exercise intensity were filmed using CCTV footage on either a day or night-stabling schedule over three consecutive days, with behavioural observations divided into blocks for time sampling of behaviours and collated in MS EXCEL using a pre-constructed ethogram.
