The <strong>studbook</strong> with a full historical listing will be published as pdf file and CD every year. Should you<br />
require a printed copy, please contact me.<br />
All animals registered in the <strong>studbook</strong> have been issued with a unique <strong>studbook</strong> number. Even if<br />
stillborn, animals will still be entered into the database as this is useful for reproductive analysis and<br />
also future demographic analysis.<br />
I would urge all registrars to enter these numbers into their records.<br />
The regularity of contact (or the lack of contact) with holding institutions, is constantly monitored. If<br />
no information has been given for a specimen for a considerable time and all efforts to receive<br />
information from an institution prove to be fruitless, this holder will be listed as "lost to follow up" and<br />
be removed from the <strong>studbook</strong>.<br />
I have now added the Inbreeding Coefficient behind every living animal, so you can see this<br />
information for your animals at a glance. Please note that the animals born after 2003 in Canyon<br />
Colorado Equid Sanctuary have unknown parents. Therefore I could not provide a correct Inb.<br />
Coefficient.<br />

Due to the fact that most AZA and EAZA institutions are reporting any animal records to ISIS, they<br />
will no longer be issued with studcards or specimen report print outs.<br />
If you still hold studcards, please proceed to use them as before and return them to the <strong>studbook</strong><br />
keeper upon the death of the animal<br />

Upon the animal’s death, the “passport” should be sent to the <strong>studbook</strong> keeper together with the<br />
photos and a copy of the Post Mortem report.<br />

COLO:<br />
Many of you will know that Canyon Colorado Equid Sanctuary in New Mexico, probably the<br />
largest holder of equids in captivity, has moved all their animals to new owners. Unfortunately, it<br />
was not possible for them to identify all animals individually (which <strong>studbook</strong> number) and to inform<br />
the <strong>studbook</strong>s which equid is going where, and thus how these animals are related. The animals<br />
recorded as being alive in CNYN COLO are now registered as lost-to-follow-up in the <strong>studbook</strong>.<br />
However, those animals that have come out of CNYN COLO and have entered institutions in the<br />
North American PMP have now been issued with permanent numbers, since the PMP has made<br />
assumptions for the relatedness of these Hartmann <strong>zebra</strong>.<br />
