Quantifying the relative predation pressure on bumblebee nests by the European badger (Meles meles) using artificial nests

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Bumblebee populations are declining. Factors that impact the size and success of colonies act by either limiting resource availability (bottom‐up regulation) or causing mortality, for example, pesticides, disease, and possibly predation (top‐down ...

The pelvis doesn't walk by itself: Wider pelves reduce the cost of walking over unstable surfaces

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Walking over variable and/or unstable terrain is a key aspect of daily life and was crucial to the evolution of bipedalism. The ability to find gait solutions that maintained stability over uneven terrain for the least increase in metabolic cost was likely a hallmark of locomotor effectiveness in early humans, in particular acting as an ...

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.

Atypical Predictive Processing Is Associated With Sensory Over‐Responsivity in Autism

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism is characterized by sensory processing atypicalities including sensory over‐responsivity (SOR), a heightened negative response to sensory stimuli. Although the neural mechanisms underlying SOR are not fully understood, SOR has been associated with sensory‐limbic hyper‐reactivity during sensory stimulation.

Uptake of buried baits by badgers: Implications for rabies control in Great Britain and the delivery of an oral TB vaccine

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
The British Government's contingency plan for the control of wildlife rabies is based on oral vaccination around a focal outbreak, with the option of the targeted lethal control of foxes (Vulpes vulpes) and badgers (Meles meles) using buried poisoned ...

Combining genomics and epidemiology to analyse bi-directional transmission of Mycobacterium bovis in a multi-host system

eLife, 2019
Quantifying pathogen transmission in multi-host systems is difficult, as exemplified in bovine tuberculosis (bTB) systems, but is crucial for control. The agent of bTB, Mycobacterium bovis, persists in cattle populations worldwide, often where potential ...

Irony Comprehension in Monolingual and Bilingual Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examined verbal irony comprehension in monolingual and bilingual autistic children, focusing on irony recognition, intention understanding, cue use while deciphering ironic meanings, and error patterns. A low‐verbal, multimodal task was used to minimize linguistic and metalinguistic demands.
