Ethnoveterinary medicines used for horses in Trinidad and in British Columbia, Canada
This paper investigates the commonalities in ethnoveterinary medicine used for horses between Trinidad (West Indies) and British Columbia (Canada). These research areas are part of a common market in pharmaceuticals and are both involved in the North American racing circuit. There has been very little research conducted on medicinal plants used for horses although their use is widespread. The data on ethnoveterinary medicines used for horses was …
Biological variability in a migrating isolate, the Tokelau Islands: Child growth in different environments
The magnitude and rates of growth have been compared among two cross-sectional samples of Tokelau children on the basis of 26 anthropometric dimensions. One of the samples consisted of children living on the Tokelau Islands. The migrant sample consisted of children of Tokelau descent who were living in New Zealand. The comparison between samples suggest significant differences in the rate of linear growth at the younger ages. However, most differ…
