Abstract
In order to check the gastric squamous epithelium of non-athlete horses, through video endoscopy (gastroscopy), 37 castrated, male horses were used, from the same rural property, where the horses fed only with grass (grazing), without no parasitological control, vaccination or even mineral supplementation and the aforementioned animals never fed on any form of hay (of any type of grass), we therefore concluded, based on the findings by gastric endoscopy, that grazing as a form of feeding for the horses is extremely important not only for general health but also for the integrity of the equine stomach mucosa.
