A "BIT" More To Chew On
| Division: | Health Sciences | | Category: | Intermediate | | Region: | Alberta Central East | | City: | Hanna, AB | | School: | J.C. Charyk Hanna School | | Abstract: | Many horses resist oral medications by exhibiting such behaviors as throwing their heads back, backing away, rearing or striking. This creates potential risk of injury to both the horse and handler. I have invented a device that can be used to orally administer medication to horses. Test results show that horses remain calm and relaxed and readily accept the medication using this device. |
