Three scientists with an interest in equine behaviour have joined forces to launch a YouTube channel called “Equine Science Talk International” dedicated to explaining the discoveries of equine research and what they mean for riders, trainers, and researchers.
Professor Konstanze Krüger of Nurtingen-Geisslingen
University is Germany’s first Professor of Equine Management. Her main areas of
research are the behaviour of wild living horses, and social learning and
social cognition in horses.
She is joined by Dr Laureen Esch, a veterinary surgeon, whose
doctoral thesis was on equine behaviour, now specialising in equine dentistry,
and Dr Isabell Marr, an independent horse trainer for western riding, who qualified
as a stable manager before moving on to study animal biology and biomedical
sciences.
Translations are provided by Kate Farmer, a journalist,
horse trainer and independent equine behaviour researcher. The videos are available
in English and German.
Topics covered include: How do horses interpret the world
differently on their left and right sides? Why do some horses become aggressive?
The key to successful training, and the meaning of positive and negative
reinforcement.

Hello fantastic website! Does running a blog similar to this take a great deal of work? I have no understanding of computer programming however I was hoping to start my own blog in the near future. Anyway, if you have any recommendations or tips for new blog owners please share. I understand this is off subject however I just wanted to ask. Appreciate it!
