“…The time budget for movement is influenced by different stabling conditions and feeding schedules and considered a reliable indicator of equine welfare [6,17,21,28,59,65,[67][68][69][70][71][72][73]. Horses living under inappropriate environmental conditions, including insufficient forage opportunities, high stocking densities and small enclosures, increased their active locomotion patterns [6,17,21,28,59,65,[67][68][69][70][71][72][73]. In addition, domestic mares kept in stalls for 72 h exhibited higher levels of movement during subsequent turn-out than mares kept on pasture with conspecifics [6,72].…”
