The interactions between avian species and horses encompass various ecological and behavioral dynamics. Birds and horses often share habitats, where birds may engage in activities such as foraging for insects stirred up by grazing horses or utilizing equine hair for nest building. These interactions can have implications for both species, influencing behaviors, habitat use, and ecological relationships. Research in this area explores the nature of these interactions, the benefits and potential impacts on both avian and equine species, and the broader ecological context. This page compiles peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that investigate the interactions between avian species and horses, examining their ecological, behavioral, and environmental aspects.
The Course of Experimental Infection of the Chick Embryo with the Virus of Equine Encephalomyelitis. The titration curve for the virus of Eastern equine encephalomyelitis inoculated into the 10 day old chick embryo shows that the maximum increase in virus content continues until shortly before the generalized destruction of the embryo is apparent. This is followed by a stationary phase. Histological studies of infected embryos fail to demonstrate selective tissue destruction, and titrations show the virus to be distributed throughout the egg, although concentrated in the embryo. The chorioallantoic membrane gradually becomes increasingly resistant with age to both the Eastern and Western viru...
