Perinatal parameters of mule and equine foals: Similarities and differences

Maria Augusta Alonso et al.

Summary: This study compared the behavior and perinatal physiologic characteristics of mule and equine foals and evaluated the time for fetal membrane expulsion. The results showed that mule foals had higher Apgar score and faster suckling reflex, but slower meconium elimination compared to equine foals. Mares pregnant with mule foals also had faster fetal membrane elimination compared to those pregnant with domesticated horse foals. Therefore, mules have different perinatal behavior than equine foals, resulting in faster adaptation to the extrauterine environment.

Growth and Bone Development in the Horse: When Is a Horse Skeletally Mature?

Chris W. Rogers et al.

Summary: Horses reach skeletal maturity by 2 years old, with little variation in maturity age among breeds. They are capable of athletic activity relatively early in life, and the exercise should be matched with musculoskeletal development to optimize welfare and longevity in racing and sport. The growth and development of horses can be compared with human growth using measures of physeal closure and somatic growth.
