This conference follows a very successful first IWEC that was held in Vienna seven years ago. The IWEC in Vienna was hosted at the University of Veterinary Medicine by Dr. Petra Kaczensky and Dr. Jason Ransom. This second IWEC was initiated by the US Geological Survey feral equid researchers and the International Union for Conservation of Nature Species Survival Commission (IUCN/SSC) Equid Specialist Group (ESG). As a place for this second conference, Prague was suggested as a location accessible to all. This choice complements the long tradition of research and conservation of wild equids in Czechia. It was exactly 60 years ago, in September 1959, that Prague hosted the First International Symposium for Conservation of Przewalski’s Horse. As a consequence of this symposium, Prague Zoo established the International Studbook for Przewalski’s Horse. This initiated a very successful conservation story, resulting in the reintroduction of Przewalski’s horses to Mongolia and China at the end of 20th century and beginning of this century. We would like to follow this success and point out the critical situation of another beautiful wild equid – the maneless zebra (Equus quagga borensis). Similar to Przewalski’s horse in the 1950s, the maneless zebra wild population is currently in a very precarious situation, yet fortunately there is a small but viable captive population, with most individuals kept in Czech zoos. Therefore, the maneless zebra was chosen as the logo of this conference. 9 This IWEC aims to combine current research on the state of wild equids with conservation efforts. Therefore, the conference starts with a closed meeting of the IUCN/SSC ESG. Subsequent talks and posters were split in to eight symposia: Behavioral ecology; Diseases; Conservation; Population dynamics, viability, and estimates; Genetics and morphology; Modeling for wild and feral equids; Equid reproductive biology and fertility control; and, Feral equid issues and rewilding. In total, 3 plenary talks, 41 oral talks, and 40 posters will be presented at the conference. We are very glad that the conference will be attended by 120 participants representing 30 countries from Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America. Unfortunately, we have some very sad news: one of our speakers, the eminent Mongolian scientist and coordinator of Asiatic wild asses for the IUCN/SSC ESG, Dr. Badamjav Lkhagvasuren, passed away a few weeks before the start of the conference. His abstract remains included in this book and the talk will be presented by his co-author. The conference is co-organized by the IUCN/SSC ESG, Czech University of Life Science in Prague, Prague Zoo, and the US Geological Survey. My thanks are due to the plenary speakers as well as all conference participants who come to Prague to share their knowledge and experiences. I would like to thank all members of the organizing team, technical organizing team, and volunteers. Without your help the conference could not take place. Welcome to Praha Jan Pluháček 10 First International Symposium for Conservation of Przewalski’s Horse in Prague in September 1959. 11 12 Useful information The conference is held in the T-building of the Faculty of Tropical Agrisciences in the campus of the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague.

  • 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.

  • Demographic and Reproductive Associations with Nematode Infection in a Long-Lived Mammal Carly L
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Demographic and reproductive associations with nematode infection in a long-lived mammal Carly L. Lynsdale1 ✉ , Nay Oo Mon2, Diogo J. Franco dos Santos3, Htoo Htoo Aung4, U Kyaw Nyein4, Win Htut4, Dylan Childs3 & Virpi Lummaa1 Infection by macroparasites, such as nematodes, varies within vertebrate host systems; elevated infection is commonly observed in juveniles and males, and, for females, with diferent reproductive states. However, while such patterns are widely recognized in short-lived model systems, how they apply to long-lived hosts is comparatively understudied. Here, we investigated how infection varies with host age, sex, and female reproduction in a semi-captive population of individually marked Asian elephants Elephas maximus. We carried out 1,977 faecal egg counts (FECs) across fve years to estimate nematode loads for 324 hosts. Infection patterns followed an established age-infection curve, whereby calves (5 years) exhibited the highest FECs and adults (45 years) the lowest. However, males and females had similar FECs across their long lifespan, despite distinct diferences in life-history strategy and clear sexual dimorphism. Additionally, although mothers invest two years in pregnancy and a further three to fve years into lactation, nematode load did not vary with four diferent measures of female reproduction. Our results provide a much-needed insight into the host-parasite dynamics of a long-lived host; determining host-specifc associations with infection in such systems is important for broadening our knowledge of parasite ecology and provides practical applications for wildlife medicine and management. One of the most recurrent patterns in parasite ecology is that parasites are aggregated within host populations, meaning that the majority of parasites are observed within the minority of hosts1–3.

  • Further Evidence for Male Infanticide and Feticide in Captive Plains Zebra, Equus Burchelli
    Folia Zool. – 54(3): 258–262 (2005) Further evidence for male infanticide and feticide in captive plains zebra, Equus burchelli Jan PLUHÁČEK1,2* and Luděk BARTOŠ1 1 Ethology Group, Research Institute of Animal Production, P. O. Box 1, 104 01 Praha 10 – Uhříněves, Czech Republic; e-mail: [email protected] 2 Department of Zoology, Faculty of Science, Charles University, Viničná 7, 128 44 Praha 2, Czech Republic; e-mail: [email protected] Received 3 January 2005; Accepted 21 July 2005 A b s t r a c t . The captive plains zebra are characterised by a high incidence of male infanticide and feticide. One of the most common reasons why infanticide and feticide occur is the introduction of a new male into a herd. In the present study, we used twice as much data, including nine plains zebra herds from four Czech zoos, compared to our previous study on this topic. As a result, both of the statistical models that we tested were significant. The probability of the death of a foal was greatest when a new male was introduced into the herd just after conception. The probability of a foal to die in the presence of the new male was nearly 100% during the first two months of age and decreased as the foal aged. The foal’s probability to die, depending on the timing of the introduction of a new male or the foal’s age, was neither affected by the zoo nor the subspecies. In this paper, we also describe a fourth case of male feticide in plains zebra.

For this purpose, equine owners/users in communities, work places, and animal fairs were taken into account in order to design Bangladesh Disaster Preparedness Centre (BDPC), Dhaka, Bangladesh interventions to change their perceptions about the issue. Through pictorial banners, leaflets, demonstrations, and owners/users meetings, awareness on issue was aroused. The issue was treated with other welfare issues during Background walks and events arranged from time to time, for example World Animal Day – celebrated during the last 2 years in A country born out of a bloody freedom struggle in 1971 and currently home to 16.2 million people within a 145,570 all 3 districts.
