Behavioural observations of reintroduced Takhi or Przewalski horses (Equus ferus przewalskii) in Mongolia [PDF]
Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 1996 Abstract During 1992 and 1993, 14 reintroduced Przewalski Horses or Takhi (Equus ferus przewalskii) were studied in the Hustain Nuruu Mountain Steppe reserve in Mongolia. Most of the individuals did not know each other before reintroduction. These Takhi were the first of five groups due to be released in the reserve after an acclimatisation period of

Is leadership a reliable concept in animals? An empirical study in the horse. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Leadership is commonly invoked when accounting for the coordination of group movements in animals, yet it remains loosely defined. In parallel, there is increased evidence of the sharing of group decisions by animals on the move.

Improved sperm cryosurvival in diluents containing amides versus glycerol in the Przewalski’s horse (Equus ferus przewalskii) [PDF]
Cryobiology, 2014 Two studies were conducted to understand sperm cryosensitivity in an endangered equid, the Przewalski's horse (Equus ferus przewalski), while testing the cryoprotectant ability of formamides. The first assessed the toxicity of permeating cryoprotectants (glycerol, methylformamide [MF] and dimethylformamide [DMF]) to Przewalski's horse spermatozoa ...
