Have somatic parameters of wild Equidae in captivity been changing?
PLECEROVÁ, Adéla
Behavioral, physiological, and morphological changes commonly occurred to animals under domestication distinguish domestic animals from their wild ancestors. Similar changes on some wild animals kept in captivity (zoological gardens) can also be observed. This diploma thesis concerns these morphological changes on a skeleton of Equidae. For several species and subspecies of this family some osteometric data received from those kept in captivity are compared to those from the wild. A more detailed analysis with a focus on particular breeding lines is performed for Equus prewalskii.
