Can Wapiti (Cervus elaphus) Browsing Stimulate the Chemical Defense of Taxus cuspidata—A Case of Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We study that browsing by wapiti reduces the growth of saplings, and it develop chemical defenses to prevent themselves browsed again. These results reduce our concern about wapiti browse T. cuspidate saplings, and provide basic data for the study of the interaction between them, and also provide theoretical basis for the population restoration and ...

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2214-2239, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

鹿属动物的驯化要点

open access: yes野生动物学报, 1988
鹿属(Cervus)。在我国有梅花鹿(Cervus nippon)、马鹿(Cervus elaphus)、白唇鹿(Cervus dlbirostris)海南坡鹿(Cervus eldi)、水鹿(Cervusunicolor)等五种,都是国家保护对象。到目前为止,这五种鹿都有野生的和人工驯养的种群,只是数量相差十分悬殊而已。自1963年以来曾先后从事过水鹿、梅花鹿、海南坡鹿以及引进的爪哇鹿(Cervus hippe—

Growth and Variation in Fallow Deer (Dama dama L.) From Two Contrasting Habitats in Southern Britain

open access: yesActa Zoologica, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 385-408, October 2026.
ABSTRACT We have compiled a unique data set on the age, sex, body weight and dimensions of over 500 European fallow deer from two contrasting areas of habitat in southern England: a high‐density managed parkland population and a lower‐density feral woodland one.

Mechanisms of Karyotype Evolution inCervus NipponTemminck [PDF]

open access: yesCaryologia, 1987
SUMMARYKaryotypes of two different morphologic subspecies of sika deer (Cervus nippon Temminck) are described by means of G- and C- banding technique. An uncommon karyotype with 2n = 62 is described in this species for the first time. It is shown that hybridisation and recent Robertsonian translocations as well as a polymorphism of the Y-chromosome ...

Inter‐microscope comparability of dental microwear texture data obtained from different optical profilometers: Part II Deriving instrument‐specific correction equations for meta‐analyses using published data

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2455-2475, September 2026.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) has emerged as a valuable method for investigating the feeding ecology of vertebrates. Over the past decade, three‐dimensional topographic data from microscopic regions of tooth surfaces have been collected, and surface texture parameters have been published for both extant and fossil species.
