English Fell Pony Numbers On The Rise It didn’t take long for Jenifer Morrissey to get hooked on Fell ponies when she purchased her first one in 2000.

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.

  • The Fell Ponies of the English Landscape
    The Fell Ponies of the English Landscape Fell Ponies in their natural habitat which demands hardiness! Photo by Sabine Hoff One of the few breeds of pony still running in semi-feral (wild) herds, Fell ponies derive their name from the landscape on which they survive. Named after the Norse word for "hill", the northern fells of England have been home to this type of pony for nearly 2000 years. Historically the breed originates from northern England and the Scottish border. The forts along Hadrian’s Wall were garrisoned for four centuries with Roman auxiliary troops. Roman military inscriptions show that French, Dutch, German, Polish, Spanish and eastern European cavalrymen were posted here to help maintain law and order, and with them came various foreign stallions native to the mercenaries’ homelands. These horses, ranging from slender Arab types to coarser Friesian workhorses, may well have been used both during and after the occupation to breed and produce an assortment of types in Romanized Britain. It's believed that crosses between these and the native Celtic pony have influenced many of some modern native breeds, including the Fell pony. Anything over 13.2 hands was not suited to the conditions on the Northern Fells and such larger animals could only survive with extra feeding. Despite being crossed with larger foreign stallions, natural selection stabilized the breed as a pony. The average size of a Fell is 13.2, with the maximum height being no more than 14 hands. The breed has four acceptable coat colors and is renowned for its silky leg feathering and profuse mane and tail.

  • News Release Michigan Equine Survey-1996
    United States Department of Agriculture National Agricultural Statistics Service Great Lakes Region News Release Michigan Equine Survey-1996 The inventory of equine in Michigan as of June 1, 1996, 130,000 head, was unchanged from 5 years earlier. While the total number was steady, there were substantial changes in counts by breed. The number of Standardbreds and Thoroughbreds fell by 30 and 20 percent, respectively. The number of Morgans, half-Arabs, Saddlebreds and various breeds of ponies also declined. By contrast, the inventories of quarter horses, paints/pintoes, warmbloods & European breeds, draft horses, Appaloosas and Tennessee Walkers and Arabians all increased. The top 5 counties in equine count were Oakland, Washtenaw, Jackson, Livingston and Wayne. The total value of equine was estimated at over $400 million. The equine industry has a sizeable labor force. There were 6,500 people who worked full-time on equine operations during the year ending May 31, 1996. These were principally the family members and owners of those facilities. Those equine facility operators also had 1,100 full-time paid employees during this time period and hired 4,400 part-time and seasonal workers. In addition, equine operators used the services of veterinarians and farriers 100,000 and 110,000 times, respectively, during the year ending May 31.
