Dear zooarchers,
I would like to know if there's any chance to estimate the
skin/hides dimension from the (estimated!) withers height?
I'm aware that is quite uncertain and may be risky, but I would like
to have a rough size rather than an exact data.
I already found online many sizes of horses hides, but the
informations are quite unclear and the withers height of the living
animal is unknown because it doesn't interest the one who wants to
buy a carpet... I have length, width and sometimes weight for hides
of "horse", "pony", "Shetland" and "zebra", sometimes with mention
of the species.
Thanks for your help,
Ilona
