Horses on the Menu: Patterns and Drivers of Free‐Ranging Horse Consumption by Iberian Wolves

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 2, June 2026.
Free‐ranging mountain ponies can comprise most of the Iberian wolf diet. Through a meta‐analysis of 137 studies, we show that horse consumption is shaped by prey availability, topography and human density, often surpassing wild and domestic ungulates and potentially serving as a buffer for livestock predation.

Growth and relationship of live weight to body measurements in semi-domesticated reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus L.)

open access: yes, 1990
Estimation of live weight from measurements of body dimensions is useful in many management activities with domestic animals. In present study live weight was measured from 2932 female and 1037 male semi-domesticated reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus ...

Gastrointestinal nematodes in Icelandic reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus)

open access: yes, 2021
Reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) are host to gastrointestinal-tract nematodes (GINs) throughout the world. Some populations of reindeer exist in almost complete isolation from others, and this can have a key influence on the species and infection rates of GINs. An example of an isolated reindeer population occurs in Iceland.
