A safety device (18, FIG. 1) for a horse 12 comprises an air bag 24 and an inflation means, the safety device (18) being adapted to be mounted to a saddle 14 or saddle pad 16. The airbag 24 is substantially horseshoe shaped and when inflated is adapted to extend around a horse's hind quarters up one flank, across the back of the horse, and down the other flank. Inflation of the airbag 24 is triggered when the safety device is moved to a substantially vertically disposed position as encountered in a rotational fall. A second embodiment of airbag 42 with a pyramidal shape is shown in FIG. 4.
