Equine Science in Australasia II
An Equine Science special issue of an Animal Production Science was published in 2020 and this is the second special issue. Both reflect a journey that began in 2006 with the first Australian Equine Science Symposium (AESS). Since then there have been six biennial symposia that have provided a platform for equine researchers to enjoy a collegial atmosphere dedicated to the horse. However, the COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of the 2020 and 2022 conferences but provided a stimulus to ensure a collection of manuscripts were published. As in the first special issue, the papers in this issue reflect the strength and diversity of Australasian Equine Science.
