Antler characteristics are influenced by a combination of genetics, age, and environmental factors, notably habitat quality and resource availability. In this study, we explored how diverse environmental factors, including climate and land cover composition, affect antler size, tine configuration, and the distribution of record‐scoring white‐tailed ...

Przewalskium albirostre (Artiodactyla: Cervidae) [PDF]
Przewalskium albirostre (Przewalski, 1883) is a physically unique cervid commonly called the white-lipped deer. Przewalskium is monotypic. This species is a high-elevation specialist endemic to the eastern Tibetan Plateau where it inhabits relatively open hills and mountains with a mosaic of forest edges, meadows, and shrublands.

Structural Genomic Variation and Its Potential Role in Deer Speciation
ABSTRACT Speciation is a key driver of biodiversity and understanding its genomic underpinnings can be important for predicting and managing biodiversity. Structural variants (SVs) are large‐scale (> 50 bp) changes in the genome and have been implicated in adaptive divergence and reproductive isolation. We investigated the role of SVs in the speciation

Limited contribution by non‐volant small mammals to regeneration in ironstone rocky outcrops
Abstract Introduction Animal‐mediated seed dispersal contributes substantially to natural regeneration in degraded areas. However, the role of seed dispersal by non‐volant small mammals (NVSM), mainly marsupials and rodents, in contributing to regeneration remains underexplored, especially in mountaintop, open‐canopy ecosystems.

The process of karyotype evolution in Cervidae from a common ancestor (2n = 70, FN = 70) has been marked by complex chromosomal rearrangements. This ancestral karyotype has been retained by the current species Mazama gouazoubira (Fischer 1814), for which

Wildlife‐friendly fencing for bison: Assessing success for containment and conflict prevention
As land managers increasingly adopt wildlife‐friendly fencing to reduce habitat fragmentation, questions remain regarding their effectiveness in containing large species like plains bison (Bison bison). Our 822‐day study of a novel fencing system in Montana demonstrates high containment success, with only 31 escape events recorded.

Riparian willows in Yellowstone National Park are shaped by ungulate browsing, but species‐specific contributions remain unclear. Using bite‐DNA metabarcoding of browsed willow twigs across six northern range sites, we found that American bison were the most frequent browsers, exceeding elk and often mule deer.

Rusa unicolor (Artiodactyla: Cervidae) [PDF]
Abstract Rusa unicolor (Kerr, 1792), or sambar, is the largest Oriental deer. Seven subspecies occur in varied habitats and elevations from India and Sri Lanka throughout southeastern Asia. Body mass and antler length decrease from west to east. R.
