A system for behavioral monitoring for equines, comprising at least one sensor to measure a signal related to the equine, a database to store at least one parameter of the equine as a function of time, and processing means. The sensor is in communication with the equine, and comprises a wireless transmitter which is in communication with the database. The processing means, in communication with the database, is adapted to (i) determine, from at least one signal from the at least one sensor, at least one parameter of the equine as a function of time; (ii) establish normal behavior of the equine based on the parameter; and (iii) identify at least one abnormal behavior of the equine by identifying at least one deviation from normal behavior.
