English term

the captive horse

English to Spanish Other Livestock / Animal Husbandry
The captive horse is still largely a vehicle for its pre-domestication genes and so can be expected to follow the same rules even though the current environment and consequences differ radically from those in which they originally developed.

Benjamín Ruiz López May 14, 2010:
You got a point. Thanks!
Taña Dalglish May 14, 2010:
Benjamin: While you may have a point regarding niceties and courtesy, I think we have to educate and encourage "new" users to complete their profiles if they are going to use the site and continue to enforce the rules. Many don't know and many of us who use the site on a regular basis take offense with the lack of courtesy by some users. Let us encourage newer members/users to complete their profiles.
Benjamín Ruiz López May 14, 2010:
¿Es acaso esto una broma? En primer lugar por la pregunta y en segundo porque no hay ni un por favor, gracias, etc. y el "asker" no presenta ninguna información en su perfil. Esto es muy raro.

The total captive population of the wild horse derives from 12 wild horses, imported from Dzungaria into Europe at different times and one domestic mare. ………. population had become extinct. The horses that were later used for breeding remained only in the Prague and Hellabrunn Zoos. That was an unsuccessful end to the first stage of Przewalski horse captive reproduction.

Section 15(c) of the 1911 Act states:
‘the expression “captive animal” means any animal (not being a domestic animal) of whatsoever kind or species, and whether a quadruped or not, including any bird, fish, or reptile, which is in captivity, or confinement, or which is maimed, pinioned, or subjected to any appliance or contrivance for the purpose of hindering or preventing its escape from captivity or confinement’
On its ordinary language, this provision appears to provide a wide scope of circumstances in which an animal is regarded as a “captive animal”. By the ordinary meaning of the words, an animal which cannot be said to be “in captivity”, since that expression may perhaps connote a state in which an animal is kept for a period of time, might still be regarded as in a state of “confinement” when it is temporarily confined in a space or enclosure from which it is unable to escape. If such an interpretation were adopted, if a wild animal was caught in a net, then it would benefit from the protection of the 1911 Act against being subjected to unnecessary cruelty, such as by having stones thrown at it.
Furthermore, an animal may still be regarded as captive even when it is not confined in an enclosure at all, since the last limb of section 15(c) includes within the definition of “captive animal” any animal “which is maimed, pinioned, or subjected to any appliance or contrivance for the purpose of hindering or preventing its escape from captivity or confinement”. This does not mean, however, that a wild animal that has been captured will be regarded as a captive animal simply because it has been maimed, pinioned or prevented from escaping. That part of the provision expressly refers only to animals maimed or restrained to hinder their “escape from captivity or confinement”. Only if a wild animal can be said to have had already passed into a state of captivity within the meaning of Rowley may it be said to have continued to be a captive animal because it was maimed or subjected to an appliance to prevent it from escaping.

Thank you. Actually I don't quite agree. They are different concepts " a captive horse" vs. "raised in captivity". The true captive horse is the "Przewalski". Un abrazo.
