All hands in horse: High-tech horse model for vet students.

A donation from the Equine Foundation of Canada has enabled the purchase of the life-sized horse model from Canada’s Veterinary Simulator Industries.

The Equine Palpation Colic Simulator has a soft silicone head and palpable veins in the neck covered by a replaceable hide that can endure multiple punctures. A mechanical system allows the veins to be pressurised. A bridle can also be put on the simulator, which is modeled on a 15hh quarter horse.
