Copaiba oleoresin as a substitute for sodium lasalocid in high‐concentrate diets for lambs: growth performance, ingestive behavior, and metabolic and ruminal parameters

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The indiscriminate and excessive use of ionophore additives has been associated with the emergence of multi‐resistant pathogenic strains and the global spread of antibiotic resistance, raising serious public health concerns. Thus, plant biocompounds have been the focus of several studies aiming to replace ionophore additives in ...

The effects of polysaccharides from Inonotus obliquus, artemisinin, and dihydroartemisinin on the reproductive system of male mice infected with Neospora caninum

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
The present study investigated the protective effects of Inonotus obliquus polysaccharides (IOPs), artemisinin, and dihydroartemisinin (DHA) on Neospora caninum-induced damage of the reproductive system in male BALB/c mice.

Habitat characteristics along spring migration routes of elk, mule deer, and pronghorn in the southern San Juan Mountains

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We evaluated habitat characteristics of spring migration routes and stopover sites for adult female elk (Cervus canadensis), mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), and pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) in the San Juan Mountains (2021–2022) and found species‐specific differences in vegetation structure, terrain, and proximity to land cover types relative to ...

Linking distribution and return‐on‐investment models to optimize woody management for prairie grouse in Nebraska

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We modeled prairie grouse abundance across Nebraska and projected future woody encroachment to estimate population losses. By combining predicted gains from woody treatments with avoided losses and treatment costs, we mapped return on investment to identify areas for woody treatments that maximize benefits to greater prairie‐chickens and sharp‐tailed ...

Swimming Upriver? Exploring the Sources of Freshwater and Marine Fish in Military Diet in Sixteenth‐ to Nineteenth‐Century Northeastern North America

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atlantic cod were caught in large numbers and shipped from fishing stations in North America to Europe and the Caribbean, and this has been frequently studied zooarchaeologically; however, the exchange of cod and other fish into interior North America has received less study.

Using participatory scenario planning to explore the synergies and trade‐offs from upland treescape expansion

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The future of land use in the UK uplands is highly debated, with growing interest in increasing tree cover and other land use changes, alongside a desire to maintain traditional land use patterns and practices. Treescape expansion is likely to result in synergies and trade‐offs between different outcomes, so integrating stakeholder preferences

Evaluation of direct-fed microbials on in vitro ruminal fermentation, gas production kinetic, and greenhouse gas emissions in different ruminants’ diet

Frontiers in Animal Science
IntroductionThree in vitro experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of increasing levels of Enterococcus faecium and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (DFM1) and increasing levels of Bacillus licheniformis and Bacillus subtilis (DFM2) on in vitro ...

More than proteins for empty stomachs: Wild meat in the BaTonga food system

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Our paper highlights the limitations of the framework used by many conservation‐focused programmes that incorporate food security objectives. This framework encourages the substitution of wild proteins with domestic proteins by promoting animal farming in communities located near conservation areas.

Mastitis in beef cattle

Scientific Messenger of LNU of Veterinary Medicine and Biotechnologies
Mastitis and udder infections pose significant health challenges for cattle, including beef breeds, although less commonly than in dairy herds. This study aims to explore mastitis' etiology, risk factors, diagnosis, and treatment in beef cows, focusing on their specific rearing and breeding conditions.

Bushmeat consumption frequency and preferences among rural households in a West African savanna landscape: Implications for food security and conservation

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The drivers of consumer demand for bushmeat are relatively well studied in tropical forest systems, but much less so in savanna areas. This is important because differing ecological and socio‐economic conditions lead to different factors affecting the relationship between local communities and their natural resources.
