Lameness Survey

[lil85]

Hello!

Please could you fill out this survey! It doesn't take too long and your responses will be so valuable. I'm doing a BTEC in Animal Management and I have to carry out an investigative project.

My project is titled 'Investigating Common Causes of Lameness in the Ridden Horse'. Its looking at how injuries commonly occur, types of injury and seeing if there is any corrolation of injury vs turnout vs disciplines.

THE RESULTS ARE IN!

I honestly thought the most common cause of lameness would be turnout related injuries....my survey suggests otherwise!
