Chronic wasting disease of cervids
Small Ruminant Research, 2015Abstract Chronic wasting disease (CWD) of cervids is the only known transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) found in non-domestic, free-ranging animals. To date, it is found in wild cervids only in North America, and natural infection has been detected in only four species (Cervus elaphus nelsoni, Odocoileus hemionus, Odocoileus virginianus and

Helminth fauna of cervids in Belorussian Polesie
Parasitology Research, 2002We report on the examination of 18 elk ( Alces alces), 16 red deer (Cervus elaphus)and 16 roe deer ( Capreolus capreolus) from the Belorussian Polesie in the period 1981-1998 for helminths. A total of 18 helminth species were found including Dictyocaulus eckerti, Fasciola hepatica, Oesophagostomum venulosum, Taenia hydatigena larvae and Trichuris ovis,

FURTHER EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES OF PNEUMOSTRONGYLUS TENUIS IN CERVIDS
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1966Two young wapiti (Cervus canadensis nelsoni) and a female mule deer fawn (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) were infected experimentally with Pneumostrongylus tenuis from white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus borealis). The male wapiti showed only slight clinical signs after infection, and first-stage larvae appeared in its faeces 92 days later.

The evolution of the cervid skull
2021Cervidae (deer) forms a large family of cud-chewing, even-toed mammals (Artiodactyla: Ruminantia). It is closely related to Moschidae (musk deer), Bovidae (cattle, goats, sheep and antelopes), Giraffidae (giraffes), and Antilocapridae (American pronghorns); Tragulidae (mouse-deer and chevrotains) com-prises somewhat more distant relatives.

Sequence characteristics of a cervid DNA repeat family
Journal of Molecular Evolution, 1995The (G + C) distribution and the presence and amounts of repetitive sequence families in the white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) have been examined. The distribution ranges from 20 to 70% (G+C) and shows four distinct repeat families. A 0.7-kb family, DII, corresponds to satellite II in domestic bovids--ox, sheep, and goat--and was singled out ...

Predation shapes the evolutionary traits of cervid weapons
Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2018Sexually selected weapons evolved to maximize the individual reproductive success of males in many polygynous breeding species. Many weapons are also retained outside of reproductive periods for secondary reasons, but the importance of these secondary functions is poorly understood.

Serosurveillance of orbiviruses in wild cervids from Spain
Veterinary Record, 2013EPIZOOTIC haemorrhagic disease (EHD) and bluetongue are caused by viruses belonging to the genus Orbivirus , family Reoviridae. To date, eight and 26 distinct serotypes of EHD virus (EHDV) and bluetongue virus (BTV) have been identified, respectively.

Phylogeny and antigenic relationships of three cervid herpesviruses
Virus Research, 2005Elk herpesvirus (ElkHV) from North American elk (wapiti, Cervus elaphus nelsoni) is a recently identified alphaherpesvirus related to bovine herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1). In this study, we determined its relationship with European cervid herpesviruses: cervid herpesvirus-1 (CerHV-1) from red deer and rangiferine herpesvirus (RanHV) from reindeer.

Search for elaphostrongyline parasites in cervids from Alberta
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1974No elaphostrongyline parasites were found in the cranial cavities of 140 while-tailed deer, 20 mule deer, and 37 moose from Alberta. No larvae with dorsal caudal spines were found in white-tailed deer feces from eastern Alberta, but spined larvae indistinguishable from those of Parelaphostrongylus spp.
