The vocal imitation of bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) signature whistles: their use in vocal matching interactions and their role as vocal labels [PDF]
The bottlenose dolphin uses vocal learning to develop its own unique acoustic signal. This signal encodes the identity of the signaller, and is known as the animal’s signature whistle.

Cutaneous mucormycosis caused by Saksenaea vasiformis in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus
Primary cutaneous mucormycosis due to Saksenaea vasiformis is a rare clinical manifestation and the actual number of the disease condition is underestimated due to lack of sporulation in the absence of molecular diagnosis. Combination therapy of antifungal and repetitive debridement is mandatory in curing the patients.

Object-oriented echo perception and cortical representation in echolocating bats [PDF]
Echolocating bats can identify three-dimensional objects exclusively through the analysis of acoustic echoes of their ultrasonic emissions. However, objects of the same structure can differ in size, and the auditory system must achieve a size-invariant ...

Interleukin‐4 (IL‐4) produced from Th2 cells modulates both innate and adaptive immune responses. It is a common belief that wild animals possess better immunity against diseases than domestic and laboratory animals; however, the immune system of wild animals is not fully explored yet. Therefore, a comparative study was designed to explore the wildlife

Phosphoantigen recognition by Vγ9Vδ2 T cells
Binding of microbial or host metabolites (phosphoantigens) to the intracellular Β30.2 domain of butyrophilin (BTN)3A1 (green) initiates binding to B30.2 domains of the BTN2A1 homodimer and results in the formation of a Vγ9Vδ2 TCR ligand which may also include additional components.

Pharmacokinetics of moxidectin in the southern hairy-nosed wombat (Lasiorhinus latifrons) [PDF]
Sarcoptic mange, caused by Sarcoptes scabiei var. wombati, could be a significant threat to populations of southern hairy-nosed wombats (Lasiorhinus latifrons; SHNW) in Australia. Treatment is currently based on the off-label use of various parasiticidal
