Banking Biodiversity: Ex Vivo Solutions for a Planet in Crisis

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity is being lost faster than it can be cataloged. Biobanking preserves cells, gametes, and DNA as recoverable material for future conservation use, and delivers most when collections are established proactively rather than deployed once populations are already critically depleted.

Contextually conspicuous species are more likely to be venomous: Habitat‐dependent aposematic colouration found throughout snakes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Conspicuous colouration signals venomous nature throughout snakes. Abstract Many animals use conspicuous colours to advertise their unprofitability to potential predators, a phenomenon known as aposematism. For example, conspicuous banded patterns in snakes are often highlighted as aposematic signalling of their venomous nature.
