亚洲野驴和普氏野马最初栖息在草原、半荒漠和沙漠地区，但普氏野马在野外灭绝，曼斯在20世纪初消失，除了土库曼斯坦有少量种群。布哈拉繁育中心（乌兹别克斯坦）成立于 1976 年，旨在重新引入和保护野生有蹄类动物。 1977年至1978年，来自咸海Barsa-Kelmes岛的Rye Mans（两只雄性和三只雌性）被引入保护区。 1989 年至 1990 年期间，引进了来自莫斯科和圣彼得堡的 8 匹普氏野马，马群数量增加到 25 至 30 匹。我们按季节和群体组成分析了 1995 年至 1998 年间这些密切相关物种的活动范围、首选栖息地和社会互动。马和驴组成了一个繁殖群体和一个次要的非繁殖群体。第二组的活动范围比繁殖组大，而且似乎对饮水地的依赖性较小。与库兰马相比，普氏野马不太适应半沙漠条件（水和植被需求）。 (C) 2001 年学术出版社。
Asiatic wild asses and Przewalski horses initially inhabited steppe, semi-desert and desert areas, but Przewalski horses became extinct in the wild, and Mans disappeared at the beginning of the 20th century, except for a small population in Turkmenistan. The Bukhara Breeding Centre (Uzbekistan) was created in 1976 for reintroduction and conservation of wild ungulate species. In 1977-1978, Rye Mans (two males and three females), from Barsa-Kelmes island on the Aral sea, were introduced into the reserve. The group increased to 25-30 animals in 1989-1990, when eight Przewalski horses from Moscow and St Petersburg toes were introduced. We analysed the home ranges, preferred habitats and social interactions of these closely related species during 1995-1998 by seasonal and group composition. Horses and asses formed a reproductive group and a secondary non-reproductive group. The home range of the secondary group was larger than the reproductive group and seemed to be less dependent from the watering places. Przewalski horses were less adapted to semi-desert conditions (both water and vegetation needs) than kulan. (C) 2001 Academic Press.
