14. 4 PINWORMS
Adult pinworms ‘oxyuris equi’ live in the large intestine. Females migrate to anus to deposit eggs in cement-like mixture. This “egg-cement” dries, cracks, and detaches from the skin in flakes causing irritation, severe itching and restlessness. The affected horse rubs its tail causing a characteristic ‘rat-tail’ appearance. Severe rubbing may cause secondary infection of the anus, tail, and the surrounding skin.
14.5 BOTS
Horse bots are the larvae of flies that have become highly specialized as parasites of horses. Female flies lay their eggs in breeding season (one common bot fly can lay 900 eggs in only three hours), and gluing them to the hair of the horse’s body. When flies attempt to lay, horses react by walking about, throwing their heads violently, running, seeking shade and shelter. Horses under riding may become unmanageable. The eggs of the common bot are laid on the hair of the front legs. These eggs may remain in place for several weeks hatching take place when they are rubbed by the warm, moist lips of the horse, larvae emerge and attach themselves to the mucous membranes of the mouth. The larvae penetrate the mucous membranes of the mouth, lips, and tongue. They burrow …show more content…

Marked alterations in cardiopulmonary function, leukocytes and thrombocytopenia lead to coagulopathies, increased vascular permeability and decreased organ blood flow and metabolism. This leads to decreased gastrointestinal motility, decreased perfusion of peripheral tissues and consequently shock (Stadler and Van,1989). Endotoxemia is one of the main causes of death in horses affected with gastrointestinal disease due to a physical obstruction causing strangulation and ischemic necrosis

I do agree with the U.S. Federal government’s management plan for wild horses. Based on the reading, the U.S. Federal government had the best interest of wild horses in mind when declaring this act. The act protects horses from humans by making wild horses components of the public land they occupy. The Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act prevents humans from slaughtering wild horses. The act also considers the natural behaviors of horses and how these behaviors will affect the longevity of the wild horse population.

I learned that the job of this insect is to latch onto a host and crush and tear at their flesh which over time eventually kills that host. Tammy Horton explains that when a marine Biologist finds a species like this it is a joy feeling because they are so rare. As oppose to a couple buying fish to eat and coming home finding a gross parasite latched to the fish’s tongue isn’t the best site to see and usually grosses most people out.

What if what we believed about the evolution of species was not all true? A new study by paleontologists have determined that environments and ecosystems varying were responsible for the evolution of horses over the past 20 million years. They were able to determine this through close examination and analyzing one hundred forty species of horses, majority of them being extinct, therefore, producing decades of research on the fossil history of this group. What they determined defies a trusted theory, that combines evolutionary success of horses with adaptation responses to the spreading of grasslands millions of years ago. This is important as it challenges everything we believed about the evolution of horses.
