A comparison of learning behavior between wild type horses (Equus Przewalski) and domesticated horses (Equus Caballus)

Rechten: Wageningen University & Research

Samenvatting

In this pilot study, it was investigated whether there is a difference in the speed of learning a discrimination task when comparing domesticated horses with a wild type horse species. Further it was explored whether inbreeding has an influence on the cognitive abilities of the tested horses as suggested by the literature on other species. The possibility that the horses were also 'learning to learn' was investigated by observing a change in the time needed to solve the discrimination task across a sequence of 15 trials.
