Fecal Material of Captive Wild Animals as Source of CAZymes With Application Potential. [PDF]
ChembiochemWith the goal to identify a novel resource of enzymes, we tested for the potential of fecal metagenomes of captive wild animals to provide CAZymes. Our data show that CAZymes profiles differed between animals with varying gut physiology and diet, and that metagenomes of captive wild animals can be considered source of diverse CAZymes including rare and

Differentiation of Meat Samples from Domestic Horses ( Equus caballus ) and Asiatic Wild Asses ( Equus hemionus ) Using a Species-Speci fi c Restriction Site in the Mitochondrial Cytochrome b Region [PDF]
Mongolian Journal of Biological Sciences, 2006 Recent studies suggest that Asiatic wild asses ( Equus hemionus ) are being increasingly poached in a commercial fashion. Part of the meat is believed to reach the meat markets in the capital Ulaanbaatar.

Collective decision‐making in aquatic mammals
Mammal Review, Volume 53, Issue 4, Page 238-253, October 2023., 2023 A framework for determining how decisions on a group level are made by non‐human mammals. These decisions can either be shared (requiring a threshold/majority in a ‘consensus’ decision or an individual choice regarding which option to follow in a ‘combined’ decision) or unshared (where individuals will either follow a single leader in an ‘unshared ...

Losing the forest for the tree? On the wisdom of subpopulation management
Zoo Biology, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 591-604, September/October 2023., 2023 Disagreement over species, subspecies, and ESU definitions and poor support for many population designations interacts with concerns over hybridization and outbreeding depression to promote subpopulation management. Conversely, managing populations as gene pools rather than taxonomic units allows for larger population sizes and reduced extinction risk.

Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 18, Page 5224-5239, September 2023., 2023 Climate change, habitat loss, and human disturbance are endangering biodiversity. Protecting habitats requires a global effort to establish effective protected areas and halt biodiversity decline. In China, conservation management is often carried out based on administrative divisions.
