For breeders, racing men, antiquarians, naturalists, and big-game hunters ought all to find something of interest. It should be emphasised that only the natural aspect of the subject is dealt with, such side-issues as the legendary history of the horse, horse-sacrifice, the acquisition and development of the art of riding and driving, the training and management of horses, being left untouched. Several difficult and debatable points are pur- posely left undecided, as I have preferred to quote the various opinions expressed by different writers, rather than to assert my own views. For the illustrations I am especially indebted to the Trustees of the British Museum ; but I have also to express my acknowledgments to the Duchess of Bedford, Prof. R. S. Lull, Dr. E. L. vi PREFACE Trouessart, Mr. Theodore A. Cook—both in his private capacity and as editor of The Field—Prof. J. C. Ewart, and several other friends and corre- spondents. Since the text was in type, Mr. R. I. Pocock has pointed out i^The Field, Jan. 20, 191 2, p. 143) that the aperture of a scent-gland situated on the posterior aspect of the hind-foot of the Indian rhino- ceros occupies a position very nearly similar to that of the ergot in the foot of the horse (infra, p. 41). " The orifice of this gland," he writes, " is placed suggestively near the spot corresponding to that occupied by the ergot in horses, and despite the accepted view that the ergot is a sole of the foot, the possibility of its representing an aborted gland may be wisely borne in mind. Its general resem- blance to the warts or chestnuts on the leofs of horses, which most authorities regard as degener- ated glandular structures, is quite in keeping with this suggestion." R.

As to the origin of the name horse—the equiva- lent of the Anglo-Saxon hors, the Frisian hars or hors, the German ross, the Italian rozza, the Old Saxon and Old German hros, and probably the Persian ghor and the Hindustani ghora—there has been some difference of opinion. It has been stated, for instance, to take origin from the Sanskrit ^ See The Ox audits Kindred, by R. Lydekker, London, 191 2. A 2 THE HORSE AND ITS RELATIVES hresk, signifying to neigh, so that the horse means the neighing animal.^ This derivation is, however, not admitted in the Century Dictionary, where the name is stated to be the equivalent of the Anglo-Saxon hors, which signifies swiftness, and is connected with the Latin currere, to run ; the English term horse thus meaning the running animal. The Sanskrit name of the species is agva, which appears to be the equivalent of the Hebrew sus, the Greek hippos (with its diminutives hipparion and kippidion), and the Latin equtcs. Another series of names for the horse is represented by the Greek kaballos, the Latin caballus, the Spanish caballo, the Italian cavallo, and the French cheval.

  • Evolution and Extinction of the Giant Rhinoceros Elasmotherium Sibiricum Sheds Light on Late Quaternary Megafaunal Extinctions
    ARTICLES https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-018-0722-0 Evolution and extinction of the giant rhinoceros Elasmotherium sibiricum sheds light on late Quaternary megafaunal extinctions Pavel Kosintsev1, Kieren J. Mitchell2, Thibaut Devièse3, Johannes van der Plicht4,5, Margot Kuitems4,5, Ekaterina Petrova6, Alexei Tikhonov6, Thomas Higham3, Daniel Comeskey3, Chris Turney7,8, Alan Cooper 2, Thijs van Kolfschoten5, Anthony J. Stuart9 and Adrian M. Lister 10* Understanding extinction events requires an unbiased record of the chronology and ecology of victims and survivors. The rhi- noceros Elasmotherium sibiricum, known as the ‘Siberian unicorn’, was believed to have gone extinct around 200,000 years ago—well before the late Quaternary megafaunal extinction event. However, no absolute dating, genetic analysis or quantita- tive ecological assessment of this species has been undertaken. Here, we show, by accelerator mass spectrometry radiocarbon dating of 23 individuals, including cross-validation by compound-specific analysis, that E. sibiricum survived in Eastern Europe and Central Asia until at least 39,000 years ago, corroborating a wave of megafaunal turnover before the Last Glacial Maximum in Eurasia, in addition to the better-known late-glacial event. Stable isotope data indicate a dry steppe niche for E. sibiricum and, together with morphology, a highly specialized diet that probably contributed to its extinction. We further demonstrate, with DNA sequencing data, a very deep phylogenetic split between the subfamilies Elasmotheriinae and Rhinocerotinae that includes all the living rhinoceroses, settling a debate based on fossil evidence and confirming that the two lineages had diverged by the Eocene. As the last surviving member of the Elasmotheriinae, the demise of the ‘Siberian unicorn’ marked the extinction of this subfamily.

  • Unit-V Evolution of Horse
    UNIT-V EVOLUTION OF HORSE Horses (Equus) are odd-toed hooped mammals belong- ing to the order Perissodactyla. Horse evolution is a straight line evolution and is a suitable example for orthogenesis. It started from Eocene period. The entire evolutionary sequence of horse history is recorded in North America. " Place of Origin The place of origin of horse is North America. From here, horses migrated to Europe and Asia. By the end of Pleis- tocene period, horses became extinct in the motherland (N. America). The horses now living in N. America are the de- scendants of migrants from other continents. Time of Origin The horse evolution started some 58 million years ago, m the beginning of Eocene period of Coenozoic era. The modem horse Equus originated in Pleistocene period about 2 million years ago. Evolutionary Trends The fossils of horses that lived in different periods, show that the body parts exhibited progressive changes towards a particular direction. These directional changes are called evo- lutionary trends. The evolutionary trends of horse evolution are summarized below: 1. Increase in size. 2. Increase in the length of limbs. 3. Increase in the length of the neck. 4. Increase in the length of preorbital region (face). 5. Increase in the length and size of III digit. 6. Increase in the size and complexity of brain. 7. Molarization of premolars. Olfactory bulb Hyracotherium Mesohippus Equus Fig.: Evolution of brain in horse. 8. Development of high crowns in premolars and molars. 9. Change of plantigrade gait to unguligrade gait. 10. Formation of diastema. 11. Disappearance of lateral digits.

  • 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.

  • How, What and Why to Do Things with Your American Saddlebred. Part 1
    1/1/2011 UNITED HOW, WHAT AND WHY TO DO THINGS WITH SADDLEBRED YOUR AMERICAN SADDLEBRED. PART 2. ASSOCIATION Braiding Manes & Wrapping Tails | Lynn Jarvis HOW TO … TRIM AND BRAID THE BRIDLE PATH The first question to answer is why do we trim and braid our Saddlebreds? Nowhere in the rule book (any rule book) will you read that your horse MUST be trimmed and braided, however some rule books will have rules AGAINST trimming and braiding – so read them carefully. (For example you cannot show your hunter or western horse with braids). Back in the depths of history, Saddlebreds were shown with their forelocks and the first part of their manes plaited (and left down, not rolled like we do with our riding horses and hunters). The purpose of this was simply to keep their hair from interfering with the double bridle. This subsequently developed into the bridle path being trimmed to make it easier to get the bridle on and off. As shows developed there was a natural competition between horse owners, who soon found ways to adorn their “peacocks of the show ring” – and mane and forelock braiding were introduced. Any colour is acceptable and traditionally reds and maroons dominate in the American show ring. In Australia they have a registry system where barns register their barn colours – and these are the colours their Saddlebreds show under – presumably other barns are not allowed to use their competitors’ colours. There are different ways of trimming the bridle path of the American Saddlebred Horse – one involves leaving the forelock alone, the other involves thinning the forelock (by trimming the sides off) or removing it completely.
