Poll Recap: Starting Horses Under Saddle

Starting a young horse under saddle can be a daunting task. Each horse has their own personality and learning curve, requiring trainers to tailor a training program to each animal. 
 
In last week’s online poll, we asked our readers if they have ever started a horse under saddle themselves. Seven hundred people responded and we’ve tallied the results!
 
Of the 700 respondents, 522 (75%) said yes, they have started a horse under saddle themselves. The remaining 178 (25%) individuals said they have not.

Video: World Without Cows - Official Trailer


In World Without Cows, journalists Michelle Michael and Brandon Whitworth take viewers on a global journey to explore the essential role of cattle in agriculture, food systems, and rural economies. Through interviews with farmers, ranchers, and environmental scientists, the documentary challenges the growing wave of misinformation surrounding cattle and climate change.

Prompted by the rise of unscientific narratives that paint livestock in a negative light, Michael and Whitworth set out to tell a more balanced story—one rooted in evidence and lived experience. The film highlights the cultural significance of cows, their contribution to global nutrition, and the innovations within the industry aimed at reducing environmental impact.

World Without Cows is a compelling reminder of the complexity and importance of livestock in a sustainable future.
