2. scientific question
what type of food will the horses go to the most ???? (apple ,carrot, or pear)

3. BACKGROUND
I chose this topic because, I love animals and I really love horse and this experiment looked really fun and i really wanted to see what would happen to the horse's memory with the food . and, i love doing things with horses I would love to see what they would do

4. MY Hypothesis
If I show the horse the carrot picture then the horse will remember it better.

5. variables independent is the different pictures
dependent is how the horses follows the picture
constants same horse , amount of pictures and treats ,same food

6. PROCEDURES table 2nd put a carrot
mark another box with a apple and a pear
put boxes in a row put a carrot in 1 of the boxes
and pieces of pear and apple
show the carrot in the box and feed the horse it 5 times
replace the food to another spot
bring the horse to the boxes and see which one it goes !!!!!!!!! (repeat)

7. data the horse went to the carrot more carrots: 3 pear: 2 apple: 1
this is all of the times it went to each box .

9. conclusion
What box will the horses rember better? What I did was I lead the horses to the boxs and let him pick what he wanted then i recorded it .BO picked the carrot 3 times ,pear 2 ,apple 1.my hypothsis was right he went to the carrots the most and this did support my hypothsis.I learned that the horses can rember were the fruit or veggie was.I would have changed one thing to do it on maltiple animals ponys or donkys ,and a horese and i would have 4 kinds of food .
