Ungulate Reintroductions: Experiences with the Takhi or Przewalski Horse ( Equus ferus przewalskii ) in Mongolia [PDF]

Conservation Biology, 1996
Experiences with the reintroduction of the takhi, or Przewalski horse ( Equus ferus przewalskii , in Mongolia can serve as valuable lessons for reintroduction of ungulates in general. We discuss the present taxonomic, historical, and biological evidence and conclude that the takhi should be ...

Potential Role of Captive Environments in Reshaping the Compositions of Pathogenic Gut Bacteria in Equus Species [PDF]

Biology
Captive environments can have detrimental effects on the health of Equus species. However, due to the limitations of available databases, the types and abundance of pathogenic bacteria in Equus species remain largely unknown.

Fecal Material of Captive Wild Animals as Source of CAZymes With Application Potential. [PDF]

Chembiochem
With the goal to identify a novel resource of enzymes, we tested for the potential of fecal metagenomes of captive wild animals to provide CAZymes. Our data show that CAZymes profiles differed between animals with varying gut physiology and diet, and that metagenomes of captive wild animals can be considered source of diverse CAZymes including rare and

EQUINE PIROPLASMOSES AT THE REINTRODUCTION SITE OF THE PRZEWALSKI'S HORSE (EQUUS FERUS PRZEWALSKII) IN MONGOLIA [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2006
Piroplasmosis has been identified as a possible cause of mortality in reintroduced Przewalski's horses (Equus ferus przewalskii) in the Dsungarian Gobi (Mongolia). A cross-sectional and a longitudinal study were conducted in a representative sample (n = 141) of the resident domestic horse population and in 23 Przewalski's horses to assess the ...
