We are proud to announce the publication of a scientific study the magazine Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports (carried out within the framework of the CENTAURUS Project) where the herd of Miranda Foundation to Boumort Reserve has been the protagonist. The article, led by researchers from the UdL and the UAB, uses horses Przewalski of the foundation as the best current model for understanding how wild horses and humans lived in Mediterranean prehistory.
The study highlights that the group formed by the stallion Gobi, the mares Kumari and Yurta, and the foals Shakti and Salasse, live in conditions of freedom and minimal human intervention, allowing scientists to obtain unique data on their diet and behavior compared to deer in the area. This research demonstrates that the task of conservation of the Foundation not only protects the biodiversity, but it is essential for science and the recovery of our historical memory.
