Why inhumane equestrian sport?

Since when do animals have to play sports? What does all this mean? This phrase?

Here is another combination - the stud farm, as it is for you? Normal? Do not simply read and ponder, reflect!

Strange creatures these people. Yes, perhaps, a story about horses must start with the fact that people are strange and awesome lip creation.

Usually after about horses and other animals begin the story this way: they are beautiful, sensitive, and so forth.?

Yes. Certainly, animals amaze, delight the most people, much like a child all. Still, the mere admiration - it is, you know, one-sided, such as incomplete, defective, there are often completely breaking away from the true reality.

Something draws us from childhood to these amazing creatures, such a strong light love. Everyone, as a child, felt compassion for the brothers, smaller, and anyone experiencing so far. We are pleased with the picture with the jolly pigs and good cows with fantastic eyes.

However, if people show movies, which shows the true life of these animals, many people do not inspect the end or beginning to associate with all this darkness of those films shoots and shows.

Stand idly by, just try to forget about an event, burying his mind under piles of stereotypes and cliches, afraid to change something, seem "not so" in society. Price of such conformity with the society - the billions of exploited animals are killed, and people too.

In fact, in order to, say, do not eat meat, just the notion that the killing - it is bad. However, for most people, this simple and healthy argument enough.

But let's say that most people (and this is not so) completely indifferent to the sufferings of others. But to me they should be treated well! The normal human reaction to the body is expressed in some disgust. Even if a person and is indifferent to the bloody scene, the already stinking decaying carcass no appetite for it cause it should not. But this does not stop people from destroying his body, and many believe that the denial of the flesh will bring them to the body of an imminent death.

The same thing happens with riding. Run - badly, with this few would argue. However, this phenomenon is so ingrained that to prove the "love" in the horse rider inhumanity of their classes, it is necessary to do this very long and hard, and there are few who are able to give up their fun. Moreover, the people before the end of his days will be confident in their own goodness. This demonstrates clearly the power of the herd reflex, the automatic life on false notions.

The worst thing in this story - a deep human self-deception. In the case of meat (milk, eggs) people simply do not encounter it with its production and easily comes up with different Disclaimers, "good" state this very promotes, or people in general does not think about how it got to him.

From horseback riding somewhat differently, if at the amateur level, yet can not think about their actions, the further rider requires absolutely amazing imagination. Yes, yes it is a fantasy, the ability to ignore reality, to walk with eyes closed, to live in perpetual deception.

How it all begin? People tend to madly love horses, come to the stables. Return to results just love for these animals, they think and talk only about the horses, fanatically buying all products with horse symbolism.

What happens next? A person adhering to a community, getting up in someone's system, always in danger of losing their true opinion. Some children in the stable said that "to beat the animals badly, and immediately surrounding accuse him of weakness, lack of character. Beating the horses - for the majority of equestrian athletes - is to show strength, its dignity. Being in such a society, the child takes it as his truth.

In the 80-ies of the 20 th century began to take shape "benign" methods of work with the horse. It all started, though not with the ideas of nonviolence, but some enterprising cowboys learned that the ability to establish contact with the horse and secure communication with her - not a bad product, plus there was simply a practical necessity in the best obedience of the horse.

Thus, in America, a young coach Pat Parelli coined the term Natural Horsmenship. In Russia, this concept has begun to appear only five years ago

Began to appear, and other similar techniques, such as the join-up ", coined by Monty Roberts. True, this man works in the field of sports and racetrack testing, making the method of destruction of the horse a little more efficient.

However, Parelli and others often cooperate and assist the athletes. Of all the "soft" methods of work with horses, only the "Haute Ecole" Ecole completely denies any connection to the sports industry, use of iron and so on.

Strictly for the horses in Russia, the ice was broken in 2004, with access to the screens "Horse Encyclopaedia" AG Nevzorov, in one series which is very detailed and well explained the situation with horseback riding. However, the wave of non-equestrian sport was some time after the second screening has reduced movie "Horse Encyclopaedia".

Unlike foreigners, working mainly in the sports industry and tourism, Nevzorov had a very clear line, outlined that, with horseback riding can be no compromise. Thus, he surprised even the West, where his film was screened as well and had some success. True, some looked at the chapter on "Sports" through his fingers and more interested in knowing what elements of the Higher School of performing his horse.

Thus began appearing people organizing in their stables, a sort of shelter for horses. This is not just in big cities.

Now people engaged in the restoration of the horses after the sport is very important. Animals gain peace and quiet your horse happy. Children learn to be friends, but not rape.

But even now there are people who like to study, instead of saving an animal from the slaughterhouse, buy their foals elite species for more effective learning.
Many plan to work in the circus. In the West, with "free" horses has long been arranged horse show ... Is it good horses to ride in the country, to speak in public, do they need all sorts of tricks and frills?

Training a horse to "soft" methods based on building relationships horse to man as the leader, leader of a mini-herd. As far as natural as it will affect the psyche of the horse? The future will show. But I think that the only reason to contain the animal, it's from something to save him.

Otherwise, get a policy, such as "my favorite slave", which is not nothing good will. Of course, I would like to believe in the understanding between man and horse, but past experience suggests guard.

I would like to note another trend. Ways animal protection and "free" horses for some reason always at odds. This is probably due to the fact that the last one to torment his "love", has always needed some kind of extreme. In war, hunting, now - just in the forest, a hike, or riding.

And the animal world for some refused to equestrian sport is still divided on the horses and "other". But they try, do not torment their horses - and that's fine (though ever met, and those who do not mind a ride with a bridle on someone else's horse). That is, people who had lost half his life on the skills of oppression and violence against the horse, a waiver of such studies seems truly heroic.

The good news is that many times already in Moscow and St. Petersburg in front of large equestrian centers have large billboards with Agit-posters, reveal the essence of equestrian sport. This, of course, the rate highly organized and the power of motion.

I hope that people who read the article, make the right judgments, and will better relate to our younger brothers.
