Horsewoman's New Book Takes Fascinating Look Into the Behavior of Horses
Peculiar, Mo. (PRWEB) December 20, 2007 -- Longtime horsewoman Ann Nyberg Bradley's Of Life and Horses explores the nature of the horse, and explains how understanding their nature and instincts can help humans forge interactive relationships with these wonderful animals.
There are plenty of books about horses and how to ride and handle them. Trainer and riding instructor Ann Bradley's Of Life and Horses goes one step beyond, shattering old myths about horses and horse training and offering a groundbreaking new outlook. A 50-year riding veteran who has worked with every sort of horse from un-started colts to race horses, Bradley believes that the key to handling or riding a horse lies in understanding how horses view their world and how we can best accommodate their natural inclinations.
Bradley relays the importance of developing a means of communication that horses can readily understand - a communication that correlates with their basic instincts and shows horses how to best operate in our world. In this wise and idea-packed book, the author opens up the world of horses to both seasoned equestrians and beginner enthusiasts alike.

Study Shows Ban on Horse Slaughter Would Not Result In Numbers of Unwanted Horses
A recent study of trends in horse slaughter revealed the number of horses slaughtered was determined by a demand for horse meat primarily in Europe and not by the number of unwanted or abandoned horses. These findings contradict horse slaughter industry claims that if horse slaughter is banned, there will be large numbers of abandoned, unwanted horses.
