Received: 9 August 2019; Accepted: 13 August 2019; Published: 20 August 2019 Abstract: The Estonian Native Horse (ENH) is a medium-size pony found mainly in the western islands of Estonia and is well-adapted to the harsh northern climate and poor pastures. The ancestry of the ENH is debated, including alleged claims about direct descendance from the extinct Tarpan. Here we conducted a detailed analysis of the genetic makeup and relationships of the ENH based on the genotypes of 15 autosomal short tandem repeats (STRs), 18 Y chromosomal single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), mitochondrial D-loop sequence and lateral gait allele in DMRT3.

  • 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.

  • History of Horses.Pdf
    Horses - A History * History comes from researching bloodlines, Shire of Cote du Ciel; Lady Isabel Cordera * not necessarily from historical accounts. Origins: The horse is one of the oldest domesticated animals of ancient times. We begin our look at the horse not from the beginning of time, but from the time right before domestication took place. If you are curious about the origins of the horse, you can do a literary search of these early horse species from the scientific group Condylarth: Eohippus, Mesohippus, Miohippus, Pliohippus, and Equus Caballus. Special Mention: It is worth knowing that Equus Caballas did exist on the American continent in the Ice Age, but migrated to Europe and Asia from existing land bridges from glaciers. These glaciers melted, trapping the predecessor of the horse in the European and Asian continents, and the Equus Caballas remaining on the American Continent, went extinct. From Equus Caballas, we come across two types of breeding: Natural Selection: ‘Survival of the fittest’ - environment dictated survival. Viability of animal genes depended on environment. These animals are built to survive. Artificial Selection: Survival based on human intervention - humans decided which traits to breed for, and did not allow breeding between ‘less superior’ animals. These animals are bred to work. Our modern horses come almost exclusively from artificially selected means. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From Equus Caballas, 3 ancient horse breeds developed, which became the foundation of breeding stock for ages to come: 1) The Asiatic Wild Horse These horses were discovered in 1881 by Poliakov as a wild Mongolian horse herd. These horses survived millions of years of natural selection and are ‘pure’ representations of history.

    This is a cross-reference list for entering your horses at NAN. It will tell you how a breed is classified for NAN so that you can easily find the correct division in which to show your horse. If your breed is designated "other pure," with no division indicated, the NAN committee will use body type and suitability to determine in what division it belongs. Note: For the purposes of NAN, NAMHSA considers breeds that routinely fall at 14.2 hands high or less to be ponies.
