Item Aspectos nutricionais e seus efeitos no bem-estar e desempenho de equinos de vaquejada(2024-09-27) Sá, Amanda Regina Bertho de; Manso Filho, Hélio Cordeiro; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5631206025493479; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9395366050331432Vaquejada, a traditional equestrian sport in Northeast Brazil, imposes significant physical demands on horses, necessitating quick accelerations, sharp turns, and sudden stops. This study emphasizes the critical role of nutritional management in ensuring both the well-being and athletic performance of these animals. Utilizing questionnaires distributed at vaquejada events, we assessed the Nutrition domain within the framework of the Five Domains Model of animal welfare. The research highlighted the importance of consistent feeding practices for maintaining digestive health and preventing metabolic disorders. Additionally, it examined legal regulations pertaining to animal welfare in equestrian competitions, advocating for the alignment of sporting practices with animal protection standards. The study evaluated water and feed quality, quantity, accessibility, and storage conditions, revealing that most parameters received “good” to “excellent” ratings. Ultimately, effective nutritional management emerges as a key determinant for the health and performance of horses, fostering both their welfare and the sustainability of vaquejada.Item Índice de escore corporal em cavalos de trabalho e atletas(2018-08-24) Oliveira, Virgínia Theodora Brito Marques de; Manso, Helena Emília Cavalcanti da Costa Cordeiro; Manso Filho, Hélio Cordeiro; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5631206025493479; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7040279344981888; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1481178969488295The objective of this study was to evaluate the body condition score index in work horses and athletes, in order to know if there is difference in body scores between physical activity categories. Data were collected in the months of May and June of 2018. Fifty animals of both sexes were evaluated in the age group from 3 to 16 years and that they were performing physical activities regularly. Being: 27 working horses (traction); 23 service horses (PMPE cavalry); 41 horsepower; 31 horses of vaquejada; and, 28 racing horses. The evaluation of the corporal score was performed according to the methodology established by Henneke et al. (1983) established 6 areas of palpation and visualization in the body to determine fat deposition and nutritional status on the scale from 1 to 9. The cowherd animals had a higher body score than those of running and work, and a similar result to gait and service. Although the animals begin to deposit fat when they reach adulthood, there was no difference between the age groups <5, between 5 and 10, and> 10 years. The mean body score of the female animals (~ 4.91) was higher than the mean male (~ 4.67). The males were similar in relation to the physical activity, the values were similar for those of vaquejada (with higher value ~ 5,10), gait, running and service, and the lowest score was observed in working males (~ 3.87). When the females with the same parameter were evaluated, the ones with the lowest value were those of running (~ 4.25) with approximate results to the work (~ 4.50), and there was no difference among the cowherd females, which presented higher scores (~ 5.27) and those of service, walking and work. When males and females were evaluated for physical activity, males had a higher score (~ 4.85) than females (~ 4.25), and females (~ 4.50) larger than males (~ 3.87). For all other categories, no differences were observed. ECC evaluation remains a valid method for indicating the nutritional level of the animal. The results show that there is interaction between body condition score and physical activity category performed by horses.
