A Case of Polydactyly in a Roe Deer (Capreolus capreolus) From Germany

open access: yesAnatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Polydactyly is a rare anomaly that has been described in many vertebrate species including several deer species. The case described in this communication is believed to be only the second documented example of additional metatarsae in roe deer (Capreolus capreolus).

From Singapore's Forests to Parks: Impacts of Urbanization on Dung Beetle Communities in a Tropical Island City

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.
We investigated Singapore's dung beetle communities using multiple trapping methods in 12 sites with varying degrees of urbanization. Our results show a decline in dung beetle richness and diversity, with changes in community composition and species turnover with increasing urbanization.

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) reveal red–sika deer admixture in the absence of genetic structure in Central-Northern Italy

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science
The red deer (Cervus elaphus) is a key component of Italian wildlife, yet its genetic structure and potential hybridisation with the invasive sika deer (C. nippon) remain poorly understood.

Regeneration of subalpine conifer species is inhibited by bark-stripping deer in a Betula forest

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research
Climate change is expected to alter biotic interactions governing tree species ranges. Identifying the limiting demographic processes controlling tree distribution is key to projecting future range shifts.

Molecular authentication of sika deer (Cervus nippon) based on allele-specific PCR

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Sika deer (Cervus nippon) is listed as a tonic in many ancient Chinese pharmaceutical. Many adulterants of sika deer products have been found in Chinese medicinal materials markets, which led to detrimental impacts in clinical treatment.

Comparative functional morphological study of the tarsal joint mobility in artiodactyls and perissodactyls in light of astragalar morphological differences

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 587-603, September 2026.
This study investigated how variations in the shape of the astragalus affect tarsal joint behavior, using CT scans. In artiodactyls with a double‐pulley astragalus, the calcaneus shifted plantarly during plantarflexion. This suggests the movement increases hindlimb functional length and contributes to enhanced running speed.

Sika deer presence affects the host–parasite interface of a Japanese land leech

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Since the 1990s, increasing populations of a blood feeding land leech (Haemadipsa japonica) have become a serious issue in several Japanese prefectures, and it may be caused by the increases in sika deer (Cervus nippon) populations seen over the last ...
