'Upwards of four thousand works on horses and their utilization have been published, and of this number about one half have been printed in Great Britain. It may therefore appear an act of presumption on the part of any writer to augment the already lengthy list, but recently new animals, such as Prejevalski's horse and Grevy's zebra, have been discovered; species hitherto untamed have been pressed into the service of man, and new hybrids have been reared which hold out the promise of great utility.' Though a respected author on domestic animals of all varieties, William Bernhardt Tegetmeier (1816-1912) is most closely associated with pigeons, assisting Darwin's studies on poultry in preparation for the Origin of Species, and his discovery of the means of construction of bees' hexagonal cells is cited by Darwin as a material explanation of a phenomenon traditionally seen as evidence of divine design.
