  • - The study investigates how horses in the Eastern Amazon regulate their body temperature after exercise and compares two cooling methods: a room temperature bath and a hyper cooling method with colder water.
  • - Conducted over 15 days with ten male Brazilian horses, the research measured various parameters like rectal temperature, heart rate, and respiratory rate at different stages: before exercise, after exercise, and post-cooling.
  • - The results revealed that while ambient temperature and humidity varied, no significant differences were found between the two cooling techniques in effectively lowering the horses' body temperature after exercise.
