French term
harnais buccal
French to English
Tech/Engineering
Livestock / Animal Husbandry
I am translating a document that describes the various tasks for the position of Farm Technician. One of them is moving cows. Context: "...notamment lorsque la vache résiste au déplacement. Le travailleur doit alors maintenir fermement les sangles du harnais buccal de la vache, avec la possibilité de réaliser des efforts maximaux…” Any ideas as to what a "harnais buccal" is would be appreciated. TIA

: The Wikipedia article is wrong about "halter (US) or headcollar (UK)." As several of us have noted, both terms are used in the UK and with good reason, because there is a difference between them.

Reference:
"A halter based on pressure and release, this halter is a great tool for teaching horses to be more respectful and excellent for teaching horses to lead & load. This halter is made of 8mm braid on braid marine rope; this enables the quick release that is necessary for teaching horses to give to pressure. It also comes with a training DVD.
At no time are you to ever tie your horse up in this halter. If you need to tie up then use it over a headcollar"
'“I don’t use normal headcollars because they don’t give the required control and I find many horses have become unresponsive to them,” he explains. “Once the horse is listening to me on the training halter, I’ll use an ordinary horseman’s halter, but if I start with one of those I often find the horse’s response times are slower.”'
