Understanding how Horses see the World

Join us today as we dive into the fascinating world of equine science with Maria Villain Rørvang, a dedicated researcher from Denmark who now enriches the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences with her expertise. Maria specializes in how our equine friends perceive their environment and learn from it, a crucial understanding that ensures their welfare and safe handling. She places a strong emphasis on the need for our training methods to be aligned with horses' cognitive abilities, fostering a safer and more empathetic space for both horses and their human companions. In our talk, Maria reveals intriguing insights into olfaction in horses—an often overlooked yet vital sense that plays a significant role in how they interact with the world. She shares her latest research endeavors aimed at tapping into the emotional world of horses through olfactory cues, which could revolutionize our approach to their emotional welfare. Moreover, Maria advocates for clear and effective communication of scientific findings to all stakeholders involved in horse care and training, emphasizing the power of social media in making science accessible. Her mission is to bridge the gap between scientific research and practical application, ensuring that our advancements in knowledge truly enhance the lives of horses. Stay tuned as we uncover the complexities of horse behavior, the potential of scent work in training, and the challenges of measuring positive welfare in our horses. Maria's insights offer a rare glimpse into the future of equitation science and the promising developments that lie ahead.
