Horses must have access to shelter in the form of purpose-built or natural cover when kept in fields. The entrance of a purpose-built shelter must be wide enough to allow access and exit for at least 2 horses to minimise the risk of injury. Certain wild animals have been tamed and used for riding, usually for novelty purposes, including the zebra and the ostrich.

The licence holder must keep a register of all horses kept for the licensable activity on the premises and each horse’s valid passport showing its unique equine life number and microchip number (if any). In accidents involving cars and horses, it is the horse and rider that invariably come off worse. Riders should know what action to take in the event of an accident and should report accidents and also any near misses to the local police.

Drainage should be a minimum gradient of 1:80 to allow water to run off. There must be no standing water or pooling. Wastewater must not run into neighbouring stables. Cirelli, Al Jr.; Brenda Cloud.

Horses require a plentiful supply of clean water, a minimum of 38 to 45 litres (10 to 12USgal) per day. [241] Although horses are adapted to live outside, they require shelter from the wind and precipitation, which can range from a simple shed or shelter to an elaborate stable. [242]

Keeping the horse

The Przewalski's horse ( Equus ferus przewalskii), named after the Russian explorer Nikolai Przhevalsky, is a rare Asian animal. It is also known as the Mongolian wild horse; Mongolian people know it as the taki, and the Kyrgyz people call it a kirtag. The subspecies was presumed extinct in the wild between 1969 and 1992, while a small breeding population survived in zoos around the world. In 1992, it was reestablished in the wild by the conservation efforts of numerous zoos. [136] Today, a small wild breeding population exists in Mongolia. [137] [138] There are additional animals still maintained at zoos throughout the world.

The traditional standard for height of a horse or a pony at maturity is 14.2hands (58inches, 147cm). An animal 14.2hands (58inches, 147cm) or over is usually considered to be a horse and one less than 14.2hands (58inches, 147cm) a pony, [31] but there are many exceptions to the traditional standard. In Australia, ponies are considered to be those under 14hands (56inches, 142cm). [32] For competition in the Western division of the United States Equestrian Federation, the cutoff is 14.1hands (57inches, 145cm). [33] The International Federation for Equestrian Sports, the world governing body for horse sport, uses metric measurements and defines a pony as being any horse measuring less than 148 centimetres (58.27in) at the withers without shoes, which is just over 14.2hands (58inches, 147cm), and 2 + 1⁄ 2 hands), with shoes.

The horse ( Equus ferus caballus) [2] [3] is a domesticated, one-toed, hoofed mammal. It belongs to the taxonomic family Equidae and is one of two extant subspecies of Equus ferus. The horse has evolved over the past 45 to 55million years from a small multi-toed creature, close to Eohippus, into the large, single-toed animal of today. Humans began domesticating horses around 4000 BCE, and their domestication is believed to have been widespread by 3000 BCE. 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, which are horses that never have been domesticated. 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.

Roles and specializations [ edit ] Transportation [ edit ] The horse-drawn winch of a former limestone quarry (France)On all yards, human and equine first aid kits should be readily available and someone on the yard should be qualified in first aid practises. All keepers and visitors should be familiar with accident procedures and know what action to take in the event of an emergency. A truly wild horse is a species or subspecies with no ancestors that were ever successfully domesticated. Therefore, most "wild" horses today are actually feral horses, animals that escaped or were turned loose from domestic herds and the descendants of those animals. [135] Only two wild subspecies, the tarpan and the Przewalski's horse, survived into recorded history and only the latter survives today. Lacey, Marc (2004-05-04).
