When horses trot, metabolic Cost of Transport is independent of speed. At the optimum speeds within each gate, metabolic Cost of Transport is independent of speed. These data show that Horses have specific adaptations for walking, trotting, and galloping. Metabolic Rate is constant, regardless of speed To travel a distance of 10 miles, it is most energetically efficient for a horse to walk. Metabolic Cost of Transport increases with increases in running speed.
