When livestock lowers its front end, what effect does it have on the ride?

When livestock lowers its front end, it typically alters the dynamics of the ride, making it more challenging for the rider. This change in posture often results in a bucking motion that can throw off the balance of the rider. The action of lowering the front end indicates that the animal is preparing to execute a sudden movement, like a buck or a jump. This can lead to a more difficult ride because it requires the rider to maintain better balance and control in order to stay seated and effectively navigate the unexpected movements of the livestock. The difficulty arises from the need for enhanced skills to manage the sudden shifts in weight and direction that come with the animal's lowered stance.
