Hippology

Hippology is the study of horses, covering their biology, care, behavior, and management. It involves understanding horse anatomy, health, feeding, training, and equipment. The goal is to promote effective and humane horse care and handling. Often associated with equestrian sports and agricultural education, hippology prepares individuals to assess horse health, recognize issues, and make informed decisions about horse maintenance and training. It combines science with practical knowledge to ensure horses are well cared for and safe for both animals and humans.
