In the number and plan of the stripes, the hybrid agrees more closely with the Somali zebra than with any of the Burchell zebras. Over the brow, e. g. , there are narrow rounded arches instead of somewhat broad pointed arches as in his sire, the neck and trunk have quite double the number of stripes found in the sire, while over the croup in the position of the gridiron of the mountain zebra there were at birth irregular rows of spots which in course of time blended to form somewhat zig-zag, narrow, transverse bands. The ears are nearly as large as in the sire, while the eye-lashes are longer and distinctly curved. In his movements the hybrid resembles his sire, and like his sire he is always on the alert, very active and suspicious of unfamilar objects. Further in his call he agrees far more with his sire than his dam. In being profusely striped, Romulus differs greatly from the quagga hybrid bred by Lord Morton, in which the stripes were fewer in number than in many dun-coloured horses. Mulattos second foal arrived in July, 1897, the sire, Benazrek, being a high-caste grey Arab horse. Like Lord Mortons colts, Mulattos foal by the Arab horse, in make, action, and temperament, agreed with ordinary foals, but it differed from the majority of foals in presenting quite a number of indistinct stripes--subtle markings only visible in certain lights. These stripes differed but little from the body colour, which varied from dark bay to brown. Though few references have been made to the occurrence of stripes in foals, thev are, we find, far from uncommon. As is well known, Mr. Darwin once bred a striped foal by putting a cross-bred bay mare to a thoroughbred horse. This foal was for. . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.<
