Wind sucking and crib biting are often misunderstood — and there’s a lot of outdated advice still floating around.

In this week’s welfare post, we look at:

• Why these behaviours develop in the first place

• Why horses don’t learn them from each other

• The link between chewing, gut comfort and stress

• Why some wind suckers are actually very good learners, according to Equitation Science International - ESI CEO and PCA patron, Dr Andrew McLean

• What actually helps horses showing these behaviours

The article is based on information contained in the Pony Club Australia A Certificate Manual and current equitation science.

When confusion shows up as hyperreactive behaviours in various quantities, these are termed conflict behaviours.

It is important to differentiate between conflict behaviours and discomfort behaviours.

Discomfort behaviours are not accompanied by any symptomatic level of hyperreactivity—for example, jaw movements or tail swishing.

Conflict behaviours are the horse’s hyperreactive attempts to resolve conflicting stimuli.

Conflict occurs when the horse is trapped between opposing motivations, creating stress and the motivation to escape, fight, or become apathetic.

Apathy is often the final outcome, when escape or aggression no longer frees the horse from the conflict.
