    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.

Email: [email protected] RESUMEN Se plantea como objetivo un estudio comparativo del borde dorsal del cuello en equinos miniatura. Fueron estudiados un total de 125equinos miniatura de razas Falabella, MiniatureHorse, Pony Shetland, burro miniatura y enano (45 machos castrados y 80hembras), con edades comprendidas entre 2-20 años, sometidos a ejercicio de baja intensidad y diferentes condiciones de manejo y alimentación. Se realizó un estudio morfológico considerando la condición corporal, siguiendo el protocolo de adiposidad para la evaluación del borde dorsal del cuello descrito para equinos. El peso fue calculado empleando el sistema de ecuaciones KER descrito para caballos miniatura. Se realizó una estadística descriptiva a las medidas morfométricas del cuello y posteriormente se realizó un análisis de varianza (ANOVA). El estudio morfológico en evidenció una Puntuación 1.- 44% (55/125), Puntuación 2.- 32% (40/125), Puntuación 3.- 19% (24/125), Puntuación 4.- 5% (6/125).

Alcides Arsenio Sáenz García MSc. Managua, Nicaragua Junio, 2008 Z♀♂tecnia Equina: Apuntes de clases sobre el Caballo Universidad Nacional Agraria PRESENTACIÓN Estos apuntes de clases han sido preparados para la asignatura de Zootecnia Equina que se imparte en el sexto semestre de la carrera Ingeniería en Zootecnia dictado por el Departamento Sistemas Integrales de Producción Animal (SIPA) de la Facultad de Ciencia Animal. Gran parte del contenido está basado en anotaciones de clases y de algunos artículos técnicos de páginas electrónicas de Internet. Si el lector encuentra en estos apuntes alguna información útil se la debo a las personas experimentadas en la cría caballar y que han escrito e investigado sobre la producción equina, por los errores, que con seguridad existen, asumo total responsabilidad. El contenido de estos apuntes debe cubrir la mayor parte de los temas a tratar en la asignatura, pero en ningún caso reemplazar a un buen texto de estudio. La ganadería equina en Nicaragua se inició desde la época de la conquista española, cuando los colonizadores introdujeron los primeros ejemplares. Las primeras yeguadas traídas en ese entonces correspondían al tipo berberisco español, animales de aptitud cárnica. Estos se abandonaron a la buena de Dios, sobreviviendo los más aptos y los que toleraron las condiciones de nuestro medio, dando lugar así a la formación del caballo criollo o cholenco, animal con muy baja capacidad productiva.

  • Why the Long Face? Comparative Shape Analysis of Miniature, Pony, and Other Horse Skulls Reveals Changes in Ontogenetic Growth
    Why the long face? Comparative shape analysis of miniature, pony, and other horse skulls reveals changes in ontogenetic growth Laura Heck1, Marcelo R. Sanchez-Villagra1 and Madlen Stange2 1 Palaeontologisches Institut und Museum, University of Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland 2 Department of Biology & Redpath Museum, McGill University, Montréal, Quebec, Canada ABSTRACT Background. Much of the shape variation found in animals is based on allometry and heterochrony. Horses represent an excellent model to investigate patterns of size-shape variation among breeds that were intentionally bred for extreme small and large sizes. Methods. We tested whether ponies (wither height < 148 cm) have a diverging size- shape relationship in skull shape as compared to regular-sized horse breeds (wither height > 148 cm, here-after called horses) during ontogenetic growth. We used a dataset of 194 specimens from 25 horse and 13 pony breeds, two of which are miniature breeds (wither height < 96.5 cm)—Falabella, Shetland. We applied three-dimensional geometric morphometrics, linear measurements, and multivariate analyses (Procrustes ANOVAs) to quantitatively examine and compare the ontogenetic trajectories between pony and horse breeds with an emphasis on the miniature breeds as an extreme case of artificial selection on size. Additionally, we tested for juvenile characteristics in adult horse and miniature breeds that could resemble ‘‘paedomorphosis’’—retention of juvenile characteristics in adult stage; e.g. large eyes, large braincase-to-face- relationship, and large head-to-body relationship. Results. Allometric regression of size on shape revealed that 42% of shape variation could be explained by variation in size in all breeds. The ontogenetic trajectories of Submitted 12 April 2019 ponies and horses vary in slope and therefore in rate of change per unit size, and length.

  • The Management of Miniature Horses at Pasture in New Zealand
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. The management of Miniature horses at pasture in New Zealand A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy (without specialisation) at Massey University, Manawatῡ campus, New Zealand Sheen Yee Goh 2020 Abstract Studies on the demographics, feeding management and health care practices of Miniature horses in New Zealand have yet to be conducted. Thus, the aim of this study is to describe the demographics, feeding management and health care practices of Miniature horses in New Zealand. To achieve the aim of this study, an online survey was conducted using the Qualtrics Survey Software. There were 232 valid responses from respondents who kept 1,183 Miniature horses, representing approximately one third of the New Zealand Miniature horse population. Miniature horses were kept for leisure and companionship (56%), competition (35%) and for breeding (7%). The median number of Miniature horses kept by owners for leisure and companionship was significantly lower (two horses) than those kept for competition (six horses) or for breeding (ten horses) (p<0.05). The majority (79%) of Miniature horses were kept at pasture on low (<1,000 kg DM/ha) to moderate (~2,000 kg DM/ha) pasture masses across seasons. Pasture access was more commonly restricted by respondents during spring (60%), summer (60%), and autumn (55%) than in winter (43%).
