Potravní ekologie koní v kontextu ochranářského managementu krajiny
HÁJKOVÁ, Pavlína
This thesis provides a review of knowledge available on wild and feral horse feeding ecology, habitat preferences, competition overlap with other herbivores and their impact on vegetation. In summary, horses appear valuable for management of grasslands, but less suitable for regulation of shrubs and trees, especially when they are compared to cattle and cervids, which are more able to eliminate woody plants. Together with a tabular overview of literature on feeding ecology and plant taxa eaten by horses in the Holarctic realm, an optimalized protocol is provided to facilitate proper field collection of data about the feeding ecology and behavioral repertoire in large ungulates.
Variability of social behaviour in domestic and feral horses
ŠANDLOVÁ, Kateřina
This thesis is focused on social behaviour of horses living under feral, semi-feral and domestic conditions and its variability. This variability is represented mainly by variations in agonistic and friendly interactions among horses. Also the differences in reproductive behaviour and maternal care are included.
