The presence of fully‐developed endometrial cups in the uterus of a mare and the absence of a foetus or foetal membranes indicate that the mare had been pregnant for at least 40 days before foetal death and loss had occurred (Allen, 1975). This short article records such a case, which had progressed to a state of pyometra.
