Do Horses Think?
Brian Kenner
Observations as we see (photograph) them.  Sometimes an article is also written.  It that case, it is linked as well.
 
Horse problem solving.
Wally always seems to be on the hunt for food.  He uses some interesting problem solving abilities to open gates, containers, and anywhere or thing he thinks he'll find food.  Here, Wally has entered the tack-room to look for something good. 

Sometimes it appears to be curiosity.  Maybe this was one of those times.  The tack-room is small and not the kind of place a horse will enter without coaxing.  When in the tack room, he'll open containers and bags that hold goodies.

Once he "learns" the technology, he does not soon forget.
