Habitat complexity and prey composition shape an apex predator's habitat use across contrasting landscapes

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The spatial ecology of stalk‐and‐ambush predators like the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx depends on prey availability and environmental features, yet the relative roles of these factors remain unclear at large spatial scales. In this study, we analysed lynx habitat use across central and southern Finland using snow‐track data from the Wildlife Triangle ...

Infection by Microsporum canis in Paediatric Patients: A Veterinary Perspective

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2017
Microsporum canis is a dermatophyte fungus of which cats and dogs are recognized as the natural hosts. M. canis is also easily transmitted to humans, causing lesions to the glabrous skin (tinea corporis) and to the head (tinea capitis). The present study

Experimental Assessment of the Effects of Substrate Choice on the Duration of Chemical Signals in Fecal Scent‐Marks of Free‐Ranging Iberian Wolves

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemical communication, typically based on feces, urine, and glandular secretions, often deposited as substrate scent marks, plays a key role in social organization and communication among many mammals, especially carnivores. This study assesses experimentally whether the type of substrate chosen for fecal deposition and the temperature ...

Detection of antigens and anti‐Toxocara canis antibodies in children with different asthma severities

open access: yesImmunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2021
Introduction Toxocara canis can produce or exacerbate asthma, and the detection of anti‐T. canis immunoglobulin G (IgG) does not discriminate between recent infection or active larva migrans. In this study, we searched for T.

Tissue distribution and cell tropism of Brucella canis in naturally infected canine foetuses and neonates

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Brucella canis infection is an underdiagnosed zoonotic disease. Knowledge about perinatal brucellosis in dogs is extremely limited, although foetuses and neonates are under risk of infection due to vertical transmission.

Automated Profiling of Social Behaviors to Assess the Genetic Basis of Evolution of Aggressive Behaviors in Astyanax mexicanus

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Across the animal kingdom, social behaviors such as aggression are critical for survival and reproductive success. While there is significant variation in social behaviors within and between species, the genetic mechanisms underlying natural variation in social behaviors are poorly understood.

The effect of the owner’ s personality on the behaviour of owner-dog dyads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We describe the relationships between dog owners’ personality attributes (assessed via questionnaire), their behaviours and the dog’s behaviours observed during brief dog-owner and dog-stranger interactions (N = 78).

Predicted genetic consequences of alternative population control strategies for North American plains bison in Yellowstone National Park

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Management of bison in Yellowstone National Park under the available strategies that maintained ≥3,500 individuals (1:1 sex ratio), removed <40% of the population at a time and prioritized relatives for removal were predicted to maintain genetic variation at levels consistent with long‐term conservation (>95% of existing variation).
