Obese horses are at risk of equine metabolic syndrome - can we prevent it?
Рет қаралды 1,053
Күн бұрынIt’s hard to resist giving your hungry horse extra grain, grass, or treats. But obesity can have devastating consequences for your equine friend - like metabolic syndrome and laminitis. In this fascinating talk, geneticist Dr. Molly McCue investigates why some obese horses get metabolic syndrome and some don’t. Armed with that knowledge, veterinarians can make better management decisions to keep your horse happy & healthy for its full life.
This video was made in collaboration with TEDxMileHigh.

I was waiting to see if you were going to talk about chemicals. I am disappointed that you didn't talk specifically about glyphosate (round up). I am shocked at how many people spray their pastures with round up and actually believe there are no consequences for their animals, themselves, or the environment. In addition, cereal grains and alfalfa are significant sources of glyphosate exposure for horses.
