Evaluation of Short-Term Stall Size Housing on the Behavior and Welfare of Domestic Horses (Equus caballus). Single-stall housing is a common system used for horses in various settings, including racing stables, riding schools, teaching and research facilities. Adequate stall space is necessary for horses to lie down and make postural adjustments, both of which are essential for equine rest and welfare. The Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals recommends a stall size of 144 ft2. However, not all stalls meet this size requirement, and there is limited literature supporting its use in terms of animal welfare. This study used a crossover design to compare behavioral and physiologic variables...
Pediculosis in two research ponies (Equus caballus). Horses and ponies are used infrequently in research but may be valuable animal models for studying both equine-specific diseases and biomedical applications. We report here 2 cases of pediculosis in random-source ponies. Infestation and clinical signs were not present during a 4-wk quarantine period or for 3 to 9 mo thereafter but became apparent coincident with the ponies' movement from pasture to indoor housing. These 2 geldings presented with pruritus associated with excoriating lesions on the neck, and infestation with Bovicola (Werneckiella) equi Denny, 1842 was diagnosed. Ponies were tre...
