Equine Laterality and its Effect on Equine Health & Performance, with Dr Russell MacKechnie-Guire
Saturday 7th September @ 14:00 HRS BST
Equine Laterality and its Effect on Equine health and Performance, from a Biomechanical Perspective
Do horses turn one way easier than the other? When grazing, do horses have a preference to systematically protract one forelimb limb in advance of the other? What effect does this have on the locomotor system? Over the past decade, quantifying and understanding laterality has become the focus on many research groups. This 2-hour session will discuss laterality and its effect on equine health and performance. This course will present findings from laterality-based studies with specially attention being given to how laterality can influence the locomotor apparatus of the horse:
