Morphological and Morphometrical Aspects of the Auditory Ossicles in the European Badger (Meles Meles)

Veterinary Sciences, 2022
Given the scarce morphological data regarding the middle ear anatomy of this species, the paper attempts to describe the morphological and morphometrical data of the auditory ossicles in the badger.

Badger: complexity analysis with fuzzing and symbolic execution [PDF]

International Symposium on Software Testing and Analysis, 2018
Hybrid testing approaches that involve fuzz testing and symbolic execution have shown promising results in achieving high code coverage, uncovering subtle errors and vulnerabilities in a variety of software applications. In this paper we describe Badger -

Localised Badger Culling Increases Risk of Herd Breakdown on Nearby, Not Focal, Land.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Bovine tuberculosis is an important disease affecting the UK livestock industry. Controlling bovine tuberculosis (TB) is made more complex by the presence of a wildlife host, the Eurasian badger, Meles meles. Repeated large-scale badger culls implemented

Defining and testing a wildlife intervention framework for exotic disease control

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2022
Outbreaks of disease at the wildlife–livestock interface may require management interventions. Where they involve exotic/non‐endemic pathogens in wildlife, then such plans may need to be rapidly conceived and implemented to prevent further disease spread.

Interspecific visitation of cattle and badgers to fomites: A transmission risk for bovine tuberculosis?

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
In Great Britain and Ireland, badgers (Meles meles) are a wildlife reservoir of Mycobacterium bovis and implicated in bovine tuberculosis transmission to domestic cattle. The route of disease transmission is unknown with direct, so‐called “nose‐to‐nose,”

Altitude shapes the environmental drivers of large‐scale variation in abundance of a widespread mammal species

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Aim Habitat quality and heterogeneity directly influence the distribution and abundance of organisms at different spatial scales. Determining the main environmental factors driving the variation in species abundance is crucial to understand the ...

Protective Effect of Oral BCG and Inactivated Mycobacterium bovis Vaccines in European Badgers (Meles meles) Experimentally Infected With M. bovis

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
In Europe, badgers (Meles meles) are recognized as major tuberculosis (TB) reservoir hosts with the potential to transmit infection to associated cattle herds.

Model of Selective and Non-Selective Management of Badgers (Meles meles) to Control Bovine Tuberculosis in Badgers and Cattle.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) causes substantial economic losses to cattle farmers and taxpayers in the British Isles. Disease management in cattle is complicated by the role of the European badger (Meles meles) as a host of the infection.
