Horses on the Menu: Patterns and Drivers of Free‐Ranging Horse Consumption by Iberian Wolves

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 2, June 2026.
Free‐ranging mountain ponies can comprise most of the Iberian wolf diet. Through a meta‐analysis of 137 studies, we show that horse consumption is shaped by prey availability, topography and human density, often surpassing wild and domestic ungulates and potentially serving as a buffer for livestock predation.

Computed tomography identifies the proximodorsomedial subchondral bone of equine central tarsal bones as a predilection site for sclerosis, demineralisation and associated fractures

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 3, Page 797-804, May 2026.
Abstract Background The distribution pattern of central tarsal bone (CTB) changes has not been described, except for slab‐ and dorsomedial–plantarolateral fractures. Objectives To describe CTB changes in CT and document their distribution and associations. Study Design Retrospective case series.

A Relational Perspective on Land in Armed Conflict: Analysing the Village Guard Mobilisation in Turkey

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, Volume 26, Issue 1, Page 194-204, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines the Turkish state's Village Guard system, revived in the 1980s as part of its counterinsurgency strategy against the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK). While often framed as a defensive militia, the Village Guards became central to the state's exceptional governance in Kurdistan, both facilitating military control and ...

Real‐time fluorometric isothermal assays for detection of Streptococcus equi subspecies equi and Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus in horses: Validation, comparison and evaluation of their clinical application

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 158-166, March 2026.
Infectious diseases significantly impact equine health and welfare, causing illness and death, and loss of productivity globally. One such disease is ‘strangles’, a highly contagious upper respiratory condition in horses caused by Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (SEE).

Effectiveness of a screening protocol employed at a UK rescue centre to prevent introduction of strangles

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 466-475, March 2026.
Abstract Background Infection with Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (S. equi) is characterised by acute disease, with about 10% of infected animals remaining persistently infected. Clinically, infection with S. equi cannot readily be distinguished from infection caused by other respiratory pathogens, including Streptococcus equi subspecies ...

Equine trypanosomiasis, a systematic review and meta‐analyses: Prevalence, morbidity and mortality

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 291-319, March 2026.
Abstract Background Equine trypanosomiasis is a neglected protozoal disease. Objectives To perform a systematic search of literature to explore: (1) In equines what is the global geographical distribution and prevalence of trypanosomiasis? In low and middle‐income countries (LMICs) is trypanosomiasis more prevalent than in higher‐income countries (HICs)
