Zebra stripes: the questions raised by the answers
ABSTRACT Multiple hypotheses have been suggested to explain why the three zebra species (Equus quagga, E. grevyi and E. zebra) are striped. We review how well these theories explain the nature (rather than simply the existence) of the stripes. Specifically, we explore how well different theories explain (i) the form of zebra stripes (especially on ...

Prevalence and Identification of Livestock Tick by Sex Ratio and Host in Tehran Province
This study identified tick species infesting livestock and poultry in Tehran Province, revealing a female‐biased sex ratio and sheep as the most infested hosts. Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato was the dominant species. These findings underscore the need for host‐targeted tick control to mitigate disease transmission and economic losses.

Rapid Northward Expansion of the Blacklegged Tick, Ixodes scapularis, in Response to Climate Change
The blacklegged tick, Ixodes scapularis, can transmit human diseases such as Lyme disease and is exposing new human populations to this risk due to its rapid expansion into Canada. We used community science data (eTick and iNaturalist) to understand the environmental factors responsible for the distribution of I.
