| Summary: |
This work is based on demonstrating through physical and physiological indicators that the human-animal bond goes beyond utilitarianism, showing how the ethical treatment of animals reinforces secure bonds and the relationship with them. For this purpose, the taming process of 20 Criollo horses at Hacienda Chisinche Machachi was studied for 6 months. We compared two types of taming frequently used in Ecuador: Natural Horsemanship which consists of a process of respecting the limits of tolerance and Traditional Horsemanship which is the most common and is based on the purpose of riding as the final goal, regardless of the method. After analyzing in an Ethogram based on the evaluation of classical dressage, the body language was evaluated with 41 signs distributed in 8 behaviors and 2 physiological factors. An arithmetic indicator of the process was established. When comparing the two methodologies, it was found that the animals tamed in a natural way presented a lower presence of behavioral conflicts (p<0.01), as well as better physiological recovery based on basal heart rate (p<0.01). It can be concluded that the use of non-abrasive techniques reinforces the human animal bond, generating a positive relationship. |
