Hi

Sorry to be a pain but I am looking for information about use of contraceptives in feral horses and I have a vague recollection that there have been some posts about this on the forum but can't seem to find them.

I have scientific papers about it but am sure I once had a link to a great summary...

Any info/links etc would be greatly appreciated.

Was this a reference to the PZP discussion some time back? - the PZP pages or porcine zonae pellucidae pages/feral horses Google serves up have lots of links.

Hi Rita
I have loads of info and papers from the US, just had a thought it was being proposed to be used in Wales but can't remember if it was or not, or if my brain made that up! Any idea if its been used in any UK populations?

If your brain dreamt up the Welsh connection, it must be telepathic, because I remember this being mentioned - but I don't know any more. I do know someone here in Spain who uses PZP with his own herd, if that's any use?.........

Hi Rita
Any info in other countries than the US would be great. I do have a bit from Oz too but have a deadline and so any help appreciated. There is too much on the web :0)
What's your email address?
I'll tell you why I'm looking off-forum if you'd like. Its for work so shouldn't really post the reason on the web.

I'll look up the stuff that came up on the Italian forum about this and I can easily give you the website of the Spanish (well, Dutch, actually,)user.......however you like.

The chap's name is Peter Brosman:

He's based in Malaga - he certainly uses PZP himself and probably knows of other european users..............

Hope it's of use,
Rita

errrrrr, when I say he uses PZP himself, you know what I mean!!!
