A STEP IN STONE. ONTOLOGIES OF PODOMORPHIC PETROGLYPHS IN SOUTHERN SCANDINAVIAN BRONZE AGE

Oxford Journal of Archaeology, EarlyView.
Summary During the Bronze Age, a particular type of podomorphic petroglyph was produced on the outcrops by the sea in southern Scandinavia. In this text, their distribution, organization and articulation are analyzed in the Mälaren region of central‐eastern Sweden.

Whole Genome Characterization of Klebsiella Strains in European Hedgehogs and Human Nosocomial Settings Identified Shared Sequence Types, Antimicrobial Resistance Genes and Plasmids

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Klebsiella pneumoniae is a pathogen associated with healthcare‐acquired infections and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to beta‐lactams and carbapenems. Although wild animals are not typically exposed to antibiotics, they can harbour resistant strains. The European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) is increasingly found in urban areas,

Hunting and Hauora: Pig Hunters and Poaka in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Geographer, Volume 82, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Though invasive, wild pigs (poaka) were fundamental to the survival of both Māori and Pākehā during colonisation, and they remain an essential source of kai (sustenance) today. Utilising a Whanganui case study, 24 participants, semi‐structured interviews, and thematic analysis guided by Kaupapa Māori principles, describe hunters' interests in ...

Cryopreservation of boar semen [PDF]

, 2008
Generally, spermatozoa from most boars survive poorly the customary process of cryopreservation. Post-thaw (PT) survivors often show unstable membranes, short life-span, and low fertilising capacity when artificial insemination(AI) is used. This thesis aimed at improving this situation by (i) freezing high sperm numbers in novel packages (MiniFlatPacks™

Pig Seminal Plasma Extracellular Vesicles Enhance Motility During Preservation of Epididymal Spermatozoa but Impair Capacitation and IVF Parameters

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1249-1260, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs) produced by accessory sex glands play a key role in sperm functionality, influencing motility, viability, acrosome integrity, metabolic activity, and capacitation. Most studies on the effects of EVs on spermatozoa have focused on ejaculated spermatozoa, which have already been exposed to their own native

Antimicrobial peptides and proteins as alternative antibiotics for porcine semen preservation

BMC Veterinary Research
Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is nowadays a major emerging challenge for public health worldwide. The over- and misuse of antibiotics, including those for cell culture, are promoting AMR while also encouraging the research and employment of ...

Sperm Sexing in Selected Animals and Humans: Methods, Applications, and Future Prospects

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1089-1101, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sperm sexing is a technique that enables the selection of offspring sex by sorting spermatozoa based on their sex chromosomes. This technology has gained increasing attention due to its potential applications in both animal breeding and human‐assisted reproduction.

Ultrasonographic and Endoscopic Findings of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma With Duodenal Invasion in a Brown Bear (Ursus arctos)

Veterinary Radiology &Ultrasound, Volume 67, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This report describes a 25‐year‐old, intact male brown bear (Ursus arctos) presenting with weight loss, diarrhea, melena, apathy, and a 12% hematocrit. Ultrasound showed proximal duodenal wall thickening with submucosal cysts and a large, heterogeneous, highly vascularized mass in the descending duodenum, containing small gas pockets and ...

Detection of Parental Reciprocal Translocations via Inter‐Chromosomal Linkage Disequilibrium in Offspring Genotypes

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Reciprocal translocations (RTs) are among the most common structural chromosomal abnormalities observed in both humans and livestock, characterized by the exchange of DNA segments between two non‐homologous chromosomes and associated with reduced fertility in carriers.
