Revista Colombiana de Ciencias Pecuarias, 2022 Background: Crocodile farming aims to produce high-quality skins from captive crocodilians. Captivity usually exposes the animals to stressful conditions, resulting in increased serum corticosterone (CORT) levels that correlate negatively with those of ...

Do crocodilians get the flu? Looking for influenza A in captive crocodilians [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological Genetics and Physiology, 2008 AbstractIt is well established that several wild aquatic bird species serve as reservoirs for the influenza A virus. It has also been shown that the influenza A virus can be transmitted to mammalian species such as tigers and domestic cats and dogs through ingestion of infected birds. Another group of animals that should also be considered as potential

The crocodile muzzle: An experimental method for pacifying captured crocodilians
, 2022 Crocodilians are predatory, semi-aquatic reptiles which vary in size, morphology, behaviour and ecology. Yet, all species pose certain challenges to capture for research or re-location purposes.

Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2020 Phylogenies for fossil taxa must be inferred from morphology, but accuracy of inference is questionable. Here, morphological characters for extant crocodilians are investigated to assess how to improve inference accuracy. The homoplasy of characters is

The Plight of Reptiles as Ecological Actors in the Tropics
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2017 Earth's tropical ecosystems have witnessed several extinctions and a dramatic reduction of the range and abundance of large reptile species, which is directly related to the rise of early and modern humans.
