Alfred Nehring (29 January 1845, Gandersheim – 29 September 1904) was a German zoologist and paleontologist. He studied philology and natural sciences in Göttingen and Halle, afterwards teaching classes in Wesel (1867) and Wolfenbüttel (1871). From 1881 he was a professor at the ''Landwirtschaftlichen Hochschule'' (agricultural university) in Berlin. Nehring's scientific investigations involved modern and prehistoric vertebrates, being particularly interested in the history and morphology of domesticated animals (horses, dogs, etc.).〔(Report of the Board of Regents ) by United States National Museum, Smithsonian Institution.
