Sepsis secondary to cystitis in a guinea pig (Cavia porcellus)

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Cystitis is a frequent, often chronic and recurrent disease in guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus). This report describes a case of a 2‐year‐old, entire, female Abyssinian guinea pig with fatal cystitis. The animal was presented with progressive chronic cystitis and had previously been treated with several antibiotics and analgesics.

Alternative lifestyles: A plague persistence hypothesis

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
Several explanations have been posited for how the plague bacterium (Yersinia pestis) reemerges during sylvatic cycles within the same foci over many years, and often without direct evidence of host die‐offs.

Predation vs. Parasitism: A Case Study of Indigenous Co‐Stewardship and Science Co‐Production to Measure Temporal Shifts in Moose Mortality on Ancestral Lands of the Grand Portage Ojibwe

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study, led by the Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, tracks survival and examines causes of adult moose mortality from 2010 to 2022 on the Grand Portage Indian Reservation and in Voyageurs National Park. Using a Bayesian framework, we integrated multiple contributing factors to accurately estimate cause‐specific mortality probabilities ...

Haul‐Out Site Use and Connectivity of Harbour Seals Between Management Units in Southern Scandinavia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Effective management of wild populations requires knowledge of their movement patterns and connectivity across administrative borders. Using telemetry data from harbour seals in southern Scandinavia, we show that individuals routinely move across national and regional jurisdictions, creating an integrated network of haul‐out sites.

Host Genetics and the Skin Microbiome Independently Predict Parasite Resistance

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Host genetic selection and skin microbiome independently predict infection severity of ectoparasites. Furthermore, both factors together explain infection significantly better than either alone. ABSTRACT Host responses to parasite infection involve several interacting systems.

USING SNOW URINE SAMPLES TO ASSESS THE IMPACT OF WINTER TICKS ON MOOSE CALF CONDITION AND SURVIVAL

open access: yesAlces, 2019
Snow urine samples collected in northern New Hampshire, USA were used to measure urea nitrogen (UN) and creatinine (C) content to develop ratios for tracking the nutritional restriction of individual moose (Alces alces) through winter (2014–2017 ...

Comparison of 2016–17 and Previous Epizootics of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza H5 Guangdong Lineage in Europe

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
We analyzed the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5 epizootic of 2016–17 in Europe by epidemiologic and genetic characteristics and compared it with 2 previous epizootics caused by the same H5 Guangdong lineage.
