From Wild Horse to Riding Companion - a podcast with Zefanja Vermeulen

Together with @zefanja_vermeulen from Equine Studies, we explore “Primitive Traits”. You don't know what primitive traits are? Neither did I. And that is always the moment I Get curious 🐴 . ➡️ Primitive Traits are traits/structures that appear in primitiv horses and adapt the horse to the environmental challenges. Zefanja talks about her research and how she observes differences and changes in modern horses compared to primitiv (wild) ones. . ➡️ What can the history of domestication teach us about modern breeding, training, and care? And how can understanding these traits help us make better, more ethical choices?
