A proof of concept for linking individual identity to camera traps
Small mammal movements are difficult to monitor, both visually and with remote tracking devices, due to the animals' small body size and elusive behavior. Cameras deployed at fixed locations can provide continuous, non‐invasive records in natural habitats, yet camera‐derived indices remain sparsely validated and generally do not allow inference at the ...

Drivers of Host–Pathogen Community Assemblages in European Forests and Urban Green Spaces
ABSTRACT Despite advances in understanding infectious diseases, the persistence and re‐emergence of wildlife pathogens continue to raise public and veterinary health concerns. This study investigates the relationship between biodiversity and rodent‐borne diseases in Europe, focusing on habitat alterations and their impact on rodent diversity.

Prions propagate as multiple strains in a wide variety of mammalian species. The detection of all such strains by a single ultrasensitive assay such as Real Time Quaking-induced Conversion (RT-QuIC) would facilitate prion disease diagnosis, surveillance ...

The Australian Hydromyine Rodents—Their Interspecific Diversity and Reproductive Biology: A Review
There are two major groups, the Rattus species and the Hydromyini, in Australia. Clearly, the hydromyine rodents, unlike the Rattus genus, exhibit a diverse array of reproductive biological traits in both males and females, the full evolutionary significance of which has yet to be ascertained.

Duration of spermatogenesis in the vole ( Microtus agrestis ) and bank vole ( Clethrionomys glareolus ) [PDF]
Department of Agricultural Science, University of Oxford, U.K. The duration of the cycle of the seminiferous epithelium is a fundamental parameter of spermatogenesis in mammals (Heller & Clermont, 1964). Its measurement in the field vole (Microtus agrestis) could clarify the way in which seasonal changes in spermatogenesis in this

Behavior‐Based Rodent Management: Mechanisms, Challenges, and Opportunities
Management of rodent pests often relies upon their decisions about whether or not to interact with management tools such as baits and traps. These decisions are shaped by behavioral motivations that can vary with environmental context, over time, and between individuals, which provide both challenges and opportunities for control.
