  • Horse and Burro Management at Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge
    U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Horse and Burro Management at Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge Environmental Assessment Before Horse Gather, August 2004 September 2002 After Horse Gather, August 2005 Front Cover: The left two photographs were taken one year apart at the same site, Big Spring Creek on Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge. The first photograph was taken in August 2004 at the time of a large horse gather on Big Spring Butte which resulted in the removal of 293 horses. These horses were placed in homes through adoption. The photograph shows the extensive damage to vegetation along the ripar- ian area caused by horses. The second photo was taken one-year later (August 2005) at the same posi- tion and angle, and shows the response of vegetation from reduced grazing pressure of horses. Woody vegetation and other responses of the ecosystem will take many years for restoration from the damage. An additional photograph on the right of the page was taken in September 2002 at Big Spring Creek. The tall vegetation was protected from grazing by the cage on the left side of the photograph. Stubble height of vegetation outside the cage was 4 cm, and 35 cm inside the cage (nearly 10 times the height). The intensity of horse grazing pressure was high until the gather in late 2004. Additional photo com- parisons are available from other riparian sites. Photo credit: FWS, David N.

  • List of Horse Breeds 1 List of Horse Breeds
    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

Brussels PRINTED FOR MELINE, CANS A.ND C"., EOILEVARD DE WATERLOO, Zi. M DCCC XXXIX. MR V. un:ve PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

  • Carazo, Rachel L
    The Crossed Narrative Plane and Layered Activism: Ethnic and Nonhuman Animal Support Structures in Marguerite Henry’s King of the Wind Abstract: The significance of activism toward human and nonhuman animal subjects often appears in youth and children’s literature. However, it is with controversial and/or species- crossing issues that activism becomes so relevant that the author/narrator also partakes in the effort. In one famous work of children’s literature, Marguerite Henry’s King of the Wind (1948), activism toward ethnic and nonhuman animal interests crosses from the real world and onto the literary plane, where it, in turn, allows the characters who benefit from it to inspire others. Henry, as an author, was willing to write about cultures and characters whom other writers would not approach (Collins 62); she then used the influence of her narrator to support Arab culture (Carazo 1) and nonhuman animal rights and agency. As a result of this support, the main characters, Agba, an Arab boy, and Sham, an Arabian horse whose blood founded a line of modern Thoroughbreds, bring similar concerns to other characters at the end of the work. Thus, from these roles of activism in the novel, it is evident that activism is not static or prevented from crossing planes from the real world into the literary would in a chain of actions and reactions that continue to affect others (within the novel and without).

    u HISTORY LESSON u RARE LINE OF THE GIFFORD FAMILY Few of the old Morgan families evoke the imagery of the Golddust line. The thread is rare, yet interwoven through many Morgan families of all disciplines, and still prized by many breeders today. The Golddust story offers a fascinating look at some unique early history of the breed and contribution and dedication of the Dorsey and Hornsby familiesGolddust in building up a pure strain of the Golddust line for many decades. By Brenda L.

  • 1 Nature of Horse Breeds
    1 Nature of Horse Breeds The horse captures our imagination because of its beauty, power and, most of all, its personality. Today, we encounter a wide array of horse breeds, developed for diverse purposes. Much of this diversity did not exist at the time of domestication of the horse, 5500 years ago (Chapter 2). Modern breeds were developed through genetic selection and based on the variety of uses of horses during the advance of civilization. Domestication of the horse revolutionized civilization. A rider could go farther and faster than people had ever gone before. Horses provided power to till more land and move heavier loads. Any sort of horse could provide these benefits, as long as it could be domesticated. However, over time people became more discern- ing about the characteristics of their horses. The intuitive and genetic principle that “like begat like” led people to choose the best horses as breeding stock. At the same time, people in different parts of the world used different criteria when select- ing horses. The horses were raised in different climates, fed different rations, exposed to different infectious diseases, and asked to do different types of work. Genetic differences could and did have a large impact on these traits. Over time, selection led to the creation of diverse types of horse around the world. We use a variety of terms to describe the genetic diversity among groups of animals, both to distinguish horses from other animals and examine differences among the different types of horses. Those terms include genus, species, popula- tion, landrace, and breed.
