Étude de la tuberculose chez l'éléphant : importance en parc zoologique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Les éléphants d'Afrique (Loxodonta africana, Loxodonta cyclotis) et d'Asie (Elephas maximus) sont des espèces menacées dans leur milieu naturel. Leur élevage en parc zoologique est difficile et les populations captives diminuent peu à peu. La tuberculose

The amino acid sequence of the β chain of Asian elephant, Elephas maximus, hemoglobin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The purpose of this thesis is to elucidate the primary structure of the B chain of Asian elephant, Elephas maximus, hemoglobin. This hemoglobin was chosen for investigation because it provides the specific model necessary for testing the following: 1 ...

Genetic assessment of captive elephant (Elephas maximus) populations in Thailand

open access: yes, 2010
The genetic diversity and population structure of 136 captive Thai elephants (Elephas maximus) with known region of origin were investigated by analysis of 14 highly polymorphic microsatellite loci. We did not detect significant indications of inbreeding

Two-choice discrimination learning in African elephants (Loxodonta africana)

open access: yesPachyderm, 2013
A study of two-choice discrimination learning across 22 pattern pairs was conducted with three African elephants (Loxodonta africana) at the Atlanta/Fulton County Zoo with rates of acquisition and retention observed to be similar to those earlier ...

Astragalus ecomorphology in Quaternary elephantids

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The astragalus plays a fundamental role in the graviportal locomotion of proboscideans, reflecting the biomechanical constraints imposed by large body masses. This study analyses the morphological variability of the astragalus in Quaternary elephantids using linear biometry and 3D geometric morphometrics, incorporating an unpublished ...

Partial recovery of large seed arrival following ecological restoration in fragmented tropical rainforests

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Forest restoration success depends crucially on the reinitiation of ecological processes such as seed arrival that drive natural regeneration. We know little about whether, by increasing and diversifying local seed sources to alleviate seed limitation, and attracting animal frugivores to alleviate dispersal limitation, restoration could shift seed ...

Elephant cognition in primate perspective

open access: yes, 2009
On many of the staple measures of comparative psychology, elephants show no obvious differences from other mammals, such as primates: discrimination learning, memory, spontaneous tool use, etc. However, a range of more naturalistic measures have recently

Spectroscopic and kinetic aspects of Elephas maximus hemoglobin [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1990
In comparison with myoglobin and human and Glycera dibranchiata hemoglobins, the heme distal side amino acid exchanges within the heme environment of elephant tetrameric hemoglobin (Hbe) only slightly affect the electronic and ESR spectra of Hbe(III) and Hbe(II) derivatives, several of which were prepared and characterized by optical and ESR ...

Intangible drivers of tolerance shape human–elephant coexistence in Southwest China

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Southwest China is home to a small but rapidly expanding population of Asian elephants (Elephas maximus), whose growth has intensified conflicts with people living in shared landscapes. These conflicts result in substantial economic losses and occasional human casualties. This coexistence paradox—where conservation success leads to significant
