transporting horses

[kembryon]

I am a student at Duchy College studying FdSc Equine behaviour and Training. I am carrying out a research project- investigating equine behaviour whislt being transported either by lorry or trailer. I am looking at specific points throughout the transport process such as:

loading
travelling
unloading

I am looking to see if there are links between trailer and lorry designs and the types of behaviours shown during the loading, travelling and unloading stages.

Please could you take the time to fill out my questionnaire by following the link:

Done. Survey doesn't mention bad driving - which is one of the biggest problems causing bad travellers.
