Pearsonema (syn Capillaria) plica associated cystitis in a Fennoscandian arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus: a case report [PDF]

open access: yesActa Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2010
The bladderworm Pearsonema (syn Capillaria) plica affects domestic dogs and wild carnivores worldwide. A high prevalence in red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) has been reported in many European countries. P.

Low vulnerability of Arctic fox dens to climate change-related geohazards on Bylot Island, Nunavut, Canada

open access: yesArctic Science, 2021
Climate change increases the risk of severe alterations to essential wildlife habitats. The Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus (Linnaeus, 1758)) uses dens as shelters against cold temperatures and predators.

Dynamics and persistence of rabies in the Arctic

open access: yesPolar Research, 2019
Rabies is a major issue for human and animal health in the Arctic, yet little is known about its epidemiology. In particular, there is an ongoing debate regarding how Arctic rabies persists in its primary reservoir host, the Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus ...

Breeding value evaluation in Polish fur animals: Statistical description of fur coat and reproduction traits - relationship and inbreeding

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2004
Three data sets were available: records on conformation and coat traits for the arctic fox from one farm (5 540 observations, collected between 1983 and 1997), and the same traits for the silver fox from three farms (8 199 observations, collected between

Ecosystem drivers of an Arctic fox population at the western fringe of the Eurasian Arctic

open access: yesPolar Research, 2017
The distribution of traditional breeding dens on the Varanger Peninsula (70–71°N) in northernmost Fennoscandia indicates that this area once harboured a large Arctic fox population.

Homage to Hersteinsson and Macdonald: climate warming and resource subsidies cause red fox range expansion and Arctic fox decline

open access: yesPolar Research, 2017
Climate change can have a marked effect on the distribution and abundance of some species, as well as their interspecific interactions. In 1992, before ecological effects of anthropogenic climate change had developed into a topical research field ...

Arctic Rabies – A Review

open access: yesActa Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2004
Rabies seems to persist throughout most arctic regions, and the northern parts of Norway, Sweden and Finland, is the only part of the Arctic where rabies has not been diagnosed in recent time.

Arctic Fox Migrations in Manitoba

open access: yesARCTIC, 1976
A review is provided of the long-range movements and migratory behaviour of the arctic fox in Manitoba. During the period 1919-75, peaks in population tended to occur at three-year intervals, the number of foxes trapped in any particular year varying between 24 and 8,400.

The role of a mechanistic host in maintaining arctic rabies variant distributions: Assessment of functional genetic diversity in Alaskan red fox (Vulpes vulpes).

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Populations are exposed to different types and strains of pathogens across heterogeneous landscapes, where local interactions between host and pathogen may present reciprocal selective forces leading to correlated patterns of spatial genetic structure ...
