Horses and Grasses

- The Nutritional Ecology of Equids and Their Impact on the Camargue

About Horses and Grasses

In 1973, a herd of Camargue horses was released into a nature reserve in the Rhone delta of France. The book also provides insight into the consequences of the hind-gut fermentation system for equid behavior and ecology and contrasts this feeding strategy with that of the recently evolved, highly successful grazing bovids.
