- The stay apparatus of the forelimb -

Have you ever wondered how horses can sleep while standing up?

Horse's have a "stay apparatus", which is a complex system of muscles, tendons and ligaments that allow the legs to lock. The stay apparatus of the forelimbs works a little differently than the stay apparatus of the hindlimb.

In the forelimb, the extensor muscles and tendons at the front are directly opposed to the flexor muscles and tendons (as well as a few ligaments) at the back of the limb.

Most of the work is done by the tendons and ligaments, which allows the horse to rest and enter light sleep with very minimal muscular effort, meaning that their legs don't get tired from standing.

Horses can only get REM sleep while lying down in lateral recombancy (flat on their side). The stay apparatus is great for dozing off, but horses still need to spend some time lying down to sleep.

Rali got some good deep sleep early this morning. He must have been dreaming about running in the field with Jack. 🐎🩷
