Sarah King, research scientist with the Natural Resource Ecology Laboratory in the Warner College of Natural Resources (Colorado State University), recently published two papers on wild horses and donkeys in Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology and in Animal Behaviour.
One paper examines how evolutionary history and habitat influence their behaviors.
The other paper looks at factors that affect reproductive success in wild horse populations in Utah, in particular male behavioural patterns.
