Endoparasite Prevalence in the Mountain Bongo (<i>Tragelaphus eurycerus</i> spp. <i>isaaci</i>) at Mount Kenya Wildlife Conservancy. [PDF]
Ecol EvolParasite–host interactions influence the success of wildlife reintroductions. The mountain bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus isaaci) is a critically endangered antelope found only in Kenya's montane forests, with fewer than 100 remaining in the wild. It is, therefore, imperative to re‐establish a viable, healthy, and self‐sustaining population in its native

Effects of Betaine on Performance, Blood Biochemistry, Nutrient Utilization and Gut Health in Coccidia-Infected Broilers. [PDF]
Vet Med SciBetaine supplementation improved growth performance, nutrient digestibility, blood lipid profiles and caecal lesion scores in broilers experimentally challenged with coccidiosis, with the greatest benefits observed at 600 mg/kg, highlighting its potential as a supportive dietary strategy against coccidial infection. ABSTRACT The objective of this study
