Nordic examples of the use of secondary small animal and equine databases include studies based on data from tumour registries, breeding registries, young horse quality contest results, competition data, insurance databases, clinic data, prescription data and hunting ability tests.
In accordance with life-history theory, we predicted that older males would be more aggressive and more likely to win contests over breeding resources.
In contrast, such a negative feedback loop is not expected to occur in species in which dominance is reached through contest, e.g., nonseasonally breeding species, because high-ranking males should be the group's strongest males (van Noordwijk and van Schaik 2004).
Modern breed historians contest that there was enough breeding stock left after the early 19th century to restart the breed without further Arabian influence, and state that it is unlikely that two horses of unremarkable breeding and conformation had a significant influence on the breed.
Other Nordic examples of the use of secondary small animal and equine databases include studies based on data from tumour registries [ 3- 5], breeding registries [ 6- 13], young horse quality contest results [ 6, 7], competition data [ 7, 8], clinic data [ 14], prescription data [ 15] and hunting ability tests [ 16].
However, as individuals age, they also gain information on their relative status in the population, which may influence whether they are likely to engage in costly contest behavior and thus whether they are likely to dominate breeding resources.
The program has performed such activities as encouraging cemeteries to dump standing water, a "Fight the Bite" poster contest, continued posting of door hangers with dengue information, neighborhood cleanups of mosquito breeding sites, and creating cartoon characters to communicate information about dengue to children (and adults).
Research has shown that people in masculinity contest cultures think their coworkers embrace these norms when in fact they do not, breeding pervasive but silent dissatisfaction alongside active complicity as people stay quiet to prove they belong.
