	Title	A non-natural head-neck position (rollkur) during training results in less acute stress in elite trained dressage horses			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2006	Publication	Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science	Abbreviated Journal	Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science
	Volume	9	Issue	1	Pages	59-64
	Keywords
	Abstract	This study measured parameters of stress in recreational, trained horses (REC; n = 7) and elite (International Grand Prix level) trained, dressage horses (DRES; n = 5). The training of the DRES horses uses an unnatural head?neck position (Rollkur), whereas in the REC horses such training techniques are not common. The study measured stress by using heart rate variability analysis for 30 min postfeeding in the morning and 30 min postexercise after a morning training session. The study found no significant difference at rest between the REC and DRES horses. During the posttraining measurements, however, the DRES horses showed, among others, a less sympathetic and increased parasympathetic dominance. These results suggest that DRES horses tend to have less acute stress than do REC horses postexercise. The findings of this study suggest maintaining the health and well-being of DRES horses despite nonnatural, biomechanical positions.

	Title	Ancient diets, ecology, and extinction of 5-million-year-Old horses from florida			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1999	Publication		Abbreviated Journal	Science
	Volume	283	Issue	5403	Pages	824-827
	Keywords
	Abstract	Six sympatric species of 5-million-year-old (late Hemphillian) horses from Florida existed during a time of major global change and extinction in terrestrial ecosystems. Traditionally, these horses were interpreted to have fed on abrasive grasses because of their high-crowned teeth. However, carbon isotopic and tooth microwear data indicate that these horses were not all C4 grazers but also included mixed feeders and C3 browsers. The late Hemphillian Florida sister species of the modern genus Equus was principally a browser, unlike the grazing diet of modern equids. Late Hemphillian horse extinctions in Florida involved two grazing and one browsing species.

	Title	Animal choice behavior and the evolution of cognitive architecture			Type	Journal Article
	Year	1991	Publication	Science (New York, N.Y.)	Abbreviated Journal	Science
	Volume	253	Issue	5023	Pages	980-986
	Keywords	Animals; Bees/genetics/physiology; Biomechanics; Choice Behavior; Cognition; Evolution; Mathematics; Models, Genetic; Probability
	Abstract	Animals process sensory information according to specific computational rules and, subsequently, form representations of their environments that form the basis for decisions and choices. The specific computational rules used by organisms will often be evolutionarily adaptive by generating higher probabilities of survival, reproduction, and resource acquisition. Experiments with enclosed colonies of bumblebees constrained to foraging on artificial flowers suggest that the bumblebee's cognitive architecture is designed to efficiently exploit floral resources from spatially structured environments given limits on memory and the neuronal processing of information. A non-linear relationship between the biomechanics of nectar extraction and rates of net energetic gain by individual bees may account for sensitivities to both the arithmetic mean and variance in reward distributions in flowers. Heuristic rules that lead to efficient resource exploitation may also lead to subjective misperception of likelihoods. Subjective probability formation may then be viewed as a problem in pattern recognition subject to specific sampling schemes and memory constraints.

	Title	Apes save tools for future use			Type	Journal Article
	Year	2006	Publication	Science (New York, N.Y.)	Abbreviated Journal	Science
	Volume	312	Issue	5776	Pages	1038-1040
	Keywords	Animals; Association Learning; Cognition; Evolution; Mental Processes; Pan paniscus; Pan troglodytes; *Pongo pygmaeus
	Abstract	Planning for future needs, not just current ones, is one of the most formidable human cognitive achievements. Whether this skill is a uniquely human adaptation is a controversial issue. In a study we conducted, bonobos and orangutans selected, transported, and saved appropriate tools above baseline levels to use them 1 hour later (experiment 1). Experiment 2 extended these results to a 14-hour delay between collecting and using the tools. Experiment 3 showed that seeing the apparatus during tool selection was not necessary to succeed. These findings suggest that the precursor skills for planning for the future evolved in great apes before 14 million years ago, when all extant great ape species shared a common ancestor.
