Local Transport of Vertebrate Airborne eDNA Is Captured by Wind‐Directed Catchment Area Models

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
This novel study models local airborne eDNA transport using wind‐directed catchment models. Results show 100% of species detections within 100 m of samplers originate from predicted downwind catchments. This framework enables spatially explicit terrestrial biomonitoring, significantly enhancing confidence in species source identification.

Semen-induced ovulation in the bactrian camel ( Camelus bactrianus ) [PDF]

Reproduction, 1985
Summary. Bactrian camels (63 ♀♀,8 ♂ ♂ ) were used in the breeding season to determine the factors that will induce ovulation. After insemination of semen samples into the vagina, the ovaries were checked for ovulation by rectal palpation.

Scanning electron microscopy of Onchocerca fasciata (Filarioidea: Onchocercidae) adults, microfilariae and eggs with notes on histopathological findings in camels

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Onchocerca fasciata is a prevalent filarial species in camelids of Asia and Africa forming nodules in the skin of dromedary and Bactrian camels. In spite of recent advances in the biology and epidemiology of this nematode species, a relatively

A Breath of Fresh Air: A Novel Passive Airborne eDNA Approach for Scalable Terrestrial Biodiversity Monitoring

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The study introduces the Nutshell eDNA sampler, an inexpensive, reusable passive device for collecting environmental DNA from air to monitor terrestrial biodiversity. Tested at the Rotterdam Zoo, it detected numerous species and complimented active samplers in identifying zoo animals, continuing to accumulate DNA over longer sampling times and ...

Winged Camelus Bactrianus in Sogdian Art

Bulletin of the Society for Near Eastern Studies in Japan, 1982
One of the most fascinating and also enigmatic artistic motifs of the Sogdian art flourished in 7th-8th centuries, might be so-called winged camel or camel bird. The reasons why this unprecedented composite animal was invented only by the Sogdians might be found out within the cultural background of Sogdiana.

Optimizing Cattle, Yak, Camel, and Horse Meat Processing: Species‐Sex Physicochemical Drivers

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Species primarily determines the nutritional and processing traits of cattle, yak, camel, and horse meats; yak stands out for superior nutrition (high protein/EAA/MUFAs) but requires tenderization, while horse offers greater tenderness but has a darker color and low water‐holding capacity.

Bluetongue Virus Serotype 3 Follow‐Up of the 2024 Outbreak in Two Belgian Zoos

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In summer 2024, Western Europe experienced extensive outbreaks of bluetongue virus Serotype 3 (BTV‐3), a Culicoides‐borne orbivirus. Clinical disease was first detected in August 2024 in one of two Belgian zoos, predominantly affecting European bison (Bison bonasus) and American bison (Bison bison).

Transboundary Animal Diseases Associated With Cross‐Border Camel Movement. A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Transboundary animal diseases (TADs) are contagious diseases that significantly impact livestock health, public health and economic stability. In regions with frequent cross‐border trade and transhumance involving camels, particularly the Middle East and Africa, TADs pose a heightened One Health risk due to their zoonotic potential and capacity to ...
