Integrating climate and anthropogenic dynamics can inform multifaceted management for declining mule deer populations

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Wildlife and their habitats face profound challenges from climate and landscape‐scale changes that extend beyond the influence and time horizon of most biologists and land managers. In this changing environment, long‐term datasets can enhance assessments of how demographic trends respond to interactions among local (e.g., habitat restoration ...

Levels of Abnormal Prion Protein in Deer and Elk with Chronic Wasting Disease

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) of deer and elk is a widespread health concern because its potential for cross-species transmission is undetermined. CWD prevalence in wild elk is much lower than its prevalence in wild deer, and whether CWD-infected deer ...

Transmission studies of chronic wasting disease to transgenic mice overexpressing human prion protein using the RT-QuIC assay

Veterinary Research, 2019
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal prion disease which infects deer, elk and moose. CWD was first described as a wasting syndrome in captive deer in Colorado and Wyoming wildlife facilities from 1967 to 1979.

Advice on animal and public health risks of insects reared on former foodstuffs as raw material for animal feed

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract In the coming decades, there is expected to be a sharply increased demand for dietary proteins for humans and animals. As a result, there is an increasing focus on reared insects as a new source of protein. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV), the use of food chain residual flows such as former foodstuffs as
