Marcel OlivéGUEST
Otherwise, the first reaction is, "Okay, I'm going away from here," because it's their, uh, their, their safe mechanism to survive in, in the wild.

Marcel OlivéGUEST
So again, there is a lot of things we can, we have to provide to the horse for the horse to feel safe.

Marcel OlivéGUEST
That will be from, uh, predictable, uh, routines, fe- freedom, so the horse needs to feel, to feel that his freedom of choice, otherwise he feels confined and without, uh, being able to, to choose what comes later, that, that, uh, restricts the, the freedom of this animal.

Marcel OlivéGUEST
If we restrict the, the, the senses of the horse, for instance, when we, we, "No, no, that needs to be quiet here." Okay, we are checking, [laughs] we are restricting the horse from checking, uh, the environment to feel, to feel safe.
