Dr Heather Cameron-Whytock - Equine Fatalities in Eventing
Stable Science from Dr David Marlin's AnimalwebShow Notes
Dr Heather Cameron-Whytock recently joined the Animalweb Team to tell us about her recently published study - Equine Fatalities In Eventing. This was originally recorded as a webinar that will be available to watch on AskAnimalweb from Wednesday 11th June.
This conversation delves into Heather and her colleague's recent research on equine fatalities in eventing, highlighting the misconceptions surrounding the risks associated with horse falls. The study reveals that a significant percentage of equine fatalities are due to musculoskeletal injuries and sudden deaths, rather than falls at fences.
