What does coexistence mean? Insight from place‐based trajectories of pastoralists and bears encounters in the Pyrenees

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The recovery of large carnivores in Europe raises issues related to sharing landscape with humans. Beyond technical solutions, it is widely recognized that social factors also contribute to shaping coexistence. In this context, scholars increasingly stress the need to adopt place‐based approaches by analysing how humans and wildlife interact ...

Establishment of a Suitable Diagnostic Workflow to Ensure Sensitive Detection of African Swine Fever Virus Genome in Porcine Semen

open access: yesPathogens
The rapid spread of African swine fever virus (ASFV), causing severe and often lethal disease in domestic pigs and Eurasian wild boar, continues to be a threat to pig populations and dependent industries.

Lipid Peroxidation in Semen of the Boar [PDF]

open access: yesActa Veterinaria Brno, 1979
Smutna M., o. Synek: Lipid Peroxidation in Semen of the Boar. Acta vet. Bmo, 48, 1979: 35-43. During the catalyzed aerobic incubation of the complete boar semen malonyl­ dialdehyde (MDA) is produced. MDA is a good indicator of peroxidative decom­ position of polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Monitoring feral pigs (Sus scrofa): Complementarity between autonomous sensing methods increases detection probability

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Invasive alien species are a major threat for biodiversity worldwide and effective monitoring is paramount to inform management. In this study we used a multi‐season occupancy model to assess probability of detection between camera traps and passive acoustic recorders for feral pigs (Sus scrofa) during 1 year of data collection.

Liquid Storage of Miniature Boar Semen.

open access: yesExperimental Animals, 2002
The effects of liquid storage at 15 degrees C on the fertilizing ability of miniature pig semen were investigated. Characterization of ejaculated semen from 3 miniature boars was carried out. Semen volume and pH were similar among these boars. In one of the boars, sperm motility was slightly low, and sperm concentration and total number of sperm were ...

Unraveling the impact of dog‐friendly spaces on urban–wildland pumas and other wildlife

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As the most widespread large carnivore on the planet, domestic dogs Canis lupus familiaris can pose a major threat to wildlife, even within protected areas (PAs). Growing human presence in PAs, coupled with increasing pet dog ownership underscores the urgency to understand the influence of dogs on wildlife activity and health.

The effect of combined cryoprotectants on the cryotolerance of boar sperm [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Bioscience
Objective The frozen semen has the significant advantages of long-term storage and long-range transportation. However, due to the low cryotolerance of boar sperm, the global utilization of frozen boar semen in artificial insemination was less than 1 ...

Antimicrobial activity of cell free supernatants from probiotics inhibits against pathogenic bacteria isolated from fresh boar semen

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The use of antibiotics with semen extender appears to be a practical solution to minimise bacterial growth in fresh boar semen preservation. Unfortunately, the excessive use of antibiotics promotes antimicrobial resistance (AMR). This becomes a worldwide

Ungulate substrate use in fauna passages

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Fauna passages are increasingly constructed at major roads and railways to mitigate the negative effects of infrastructure and traffic on wildlife. The function of such passages depends on design, including the construction materials, soil, and vegetation.

[3H]Heparin Binding in Boar Spermatozoa: Characterization and Correlation with Routine Semen Quality Parameters

open access: yes, 1996
A simple technique has been established for the purpose of characterizing heparin binding to boar sperm. Binding experiments were performed using [3H]heparin and extended boar semen.
