Historical ostriches in the Libyan Desert, with ecological and taxonomic considerations
Many historical records extend the known range of the African ostrich Struthio camelus to include almost the entire state territory of Libya. This significant expansion augments the spatial potentialities to reintroduce captive-bred progeny of the ...

Osteohistology of two phorusrhacids reveals uninterrupted growth strategy
Abstract Phorusrhacidae were apex predators that primarily dominated South America ecosystems for at least 40 million years with their imposing size and predatory lifestyle—yet some aspects of their biology remain poorly understood. Osteohistology is a tool for understanding growth dynamics and biomechanical adaptations.

Milk production, fluid balance and temperature regulation in lactating camels (Camelus dromedarius) [PDF]
The aims of this thesis were to identify good milking and watering routines for camels, and to better understand the physiological mechanisms that enable camels to produce milk during long periods of water deprivation.

TOPOGRAGHY, MORPHOLOGY AND DUCT SYSTEM OF THE PANCREAS OF THE CAMEL (CAMELUS DROMEDARIUS) [PDF]
The topography, morphology and duct system of the pancreas of Camelus dromedarius were studied. The pancrease of the camel is characterised by the presence of Corpus panc reatis, Lobus pancreatis dexter, Lobus pancreatis sinister and a wide Annulus ...

Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Recent Advances in Dromedary Camels and Their Products
Dromedary camels or, more specifically, one-humped camels (Camelus dromedarius), are described as having a high productive potential, and for centuries, they have been used by people (namely nomads) in arid and hot regions as multipurpose animals for ...

In this study, we used cross‐species comparisons to identify ruminant hepatocyte features. We also identified potential genes and TFs involved in coordinating gluconeogenesis in ruminant hepatocytes. By integrating single‐cell data with population genetic analyses, we further identified candidate genetic variation in glucose metabolism and ...

Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands
ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing
