Interspecies gene flow is a key evolutionary process for the adaptation of long-lived species to new environmental conditions [PDF]
, 2017 La especiación por hibridación y la hibridación introgresiva entre especies del mismo género se reconocen cada vez más como un mecanismo que contribuye a la generación de novedades evolutivas y a la promoción de amplitud de nicho ecológico.

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 5, September 2025.Many populations of species belonging to the order Crocodilia are threatened due to illegal trafficking, indiscriminate hunting, and habitat loss and degradation affecting crocodilian health and parasitic load. Although several studies have revealed that crocodiles, caimans, and alligators are frequently infected by Hepatozoon spp., the results from ...

Conquering the crush: A novel tool for holding crocodilian jaws open
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 48, Issue 3, September 2024.Crocodilians possess the strongest bite force of all extant animals, and this jaw‐closing pressure poses a challenge and safety risk for people working with them. We designed and tested a device for holding alligator jaws open that allows for safe positioning within the mouth and is adaptable to both widen and collapse the gape of the mouth.

Population genetic structure of Morelet’s and American crocodiles in Belize:Hybridization, connectivity and conservation [PDF]
Hybridization can influence the evolutionary potential of wild species and can be especially detrimental where one species is abundant, and the other much rarer.

Animal Conservation, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 308-323, June 2024.Understanding hybridization is key for conservation of wild species, yet it is still a controversial issue in conservation. We discern geographic and temporal patterns of introgression, migration, and demography for Crocodylus acutus, C. moreletii, and their hybrid lineages.

Motivations behind wild animal consumption in social media in Mexico: A case study
People and Nature, Volume 6, Issue 2, Page 676-686, April 2024.Abstract Wildlife trade is a worldwide threat to biodiversity. It is a complex problem, and to deal with it, one must analyse its constituting factors, some of which are specific to certain geographic areas. Although Mexican laws have prohibited selling wild products, Mexico is still both a source and consumer of exotic wildlife; however, there is ...
