Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Science
  • Animal Welfare Science

Background:

  • Growing attention on equine welfare in the UK.
  • Welfare problems stem from diverse causes.
  • Need for prioritized identification of critical horse welfare issues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and prioritize the most significant equine welfare concerns in the UK.
  • To inform targeted research and educational interventions.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a Delphi method involving 19 equine welfare experts.
  • Generated an initial list of 84 welfare issues via online discussion and NVivo analysis.
  • Experts ranked issues by prevalence, severity, and duration of suffering using a 6-point Likert scale.

Main Results:

  • 37 issues met the inclusion criteria (mean score ≥ 3).
  • Most prevalent issues: lack of biosecurity, delayed euthanasia, owner knowledge deficits, fear/stress from use, obesity.
  • Issues causing greatest suffering: delayed euthanasia, owner failure to recognize pain, high worm burdens, obesity, inappropriate diets.

Conclusions:

  • Prioritized list highlights critical areas for equine welfare improvement.
  • Findings guide focused research and education to address pressing horse welfare concerns.
