Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is well known among cervids in North America. Nevertheless, management faced different types and degrees of uncertainty when CWD was first detected in reindeer Rangifer tarandus in Nordfjella, Norway in 2016. We present a timeline of the efforts to control CWD, and identify how the process, measurement, environmental, and ...

Bipedalism or bipedalisms: The os coxae of StW 573
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.There has been a long debate about the possibility of multiple contemporaneous species of Australopithecus in both eastern and southern Africa, potentially exhibiting different forms of bipedal locomotion. Here, we describe the previously unreported morphology of the os coxae in the 3.67 Ma Australopithecus prometheus StW 573 from Sterkfontein Member 2

Atypical Multiple Sclerosis Overlapping Features of Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders (NMOSD)
Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2025.ABSTRACT We aim to discuss the importance of accurately diagnosing atypical inflammatory demyelinating diseases (IDD), particularly neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD), which exhibit similar pathological characteristics to multiple sclerosis (MS). An accurate diagnosis is crucial as the disease‐modifying treatments (DMTs) used for MS can be

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract The widespread practice of supplemental feeding, a bottom‐up forcing of resource availability, is intended to improve wildlife population health and survival. However, supplemental feeding could trigger indirect effects by altering predation rates and disease dynamics. We investigated the effects of feeding on three key elk (Cervus canadensis)

Brucellosis: an Overview [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1997 Brucellosis remains a major zoonosis worldwide. Although many countries have eradicated Brucella abortus from cattle, in some areas Brucella melitensis has emerged as a cause of infection in this species as well as in sheep and goats. Despite vaccination campaigns with the Rev 1 strain, B.
