The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2315-2330, September 2026.Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Toxins, 2015 Venom delivery systems (VDS) are common in the animal kingdom, but rare amongst mammals. New definitions of venom allow us to reconsider its diversity amongst mammals by reviewing the VDS of Chiroptera, Eulipotyphla, Monotremata, and Primates. All orders

Mapping Zoonotic Risk With a Biogeographic Perspective on Transmission Cycles
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Aim When mapping the transmission risk of zoonotic diseases, the way vectors and wild carrier hosts are integrated into the modelling process has relevant impacts on the final output. The wide diversity of zoonotic cycles entails that a single methodological approach may be insufficient to cover the influence of vectors and wild carrier hosts ...

Impact of environmental factors on small mammals and their fleas
Folia OecologicaSmall mammals in the Horšianska dolina-Valley were researched first in 1984–86 and later in 2016–19. This paper seeks to identify and assess the species composition and dynamics of fleas (Siphonaptera) found in the valley on small mammals of Rodentia and

Small terrestrial mammals living along streams acting as natural landscape barriers
Ekológia (Bratislava), 2016 Riparian stands along streams are important landscape elements – biocorridors, allowing the dispersal of many small terrestrial mammals. Streams are, however, also barriers limiting dispersal, which leads to isolation and population-genetic changes ...

Subsistence harvest for food and pets associated with declining global mammal populations
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 24, Issue 5, June 2026.Subsistence harvest can have substantial impacts on mammalian biodiversity, yet its effects on the conservation status of mammal species are poorly understood. We analyzed trade and use data in species accounts from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List to examine the effects of subsistence harvest on the conservation ...

Tick‐Tac‐Foe: When Ticks, Trade, and Zoonotic Pathogens Align in African Wet Meat Markets
Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Zoonotic diseases account for over ∼60% of infectious diseases and present a significantly growing fatality threat in Africa. Live and wet markets (LWMs) in Africa function as key economic venues that support human livelihoods through social interaction and trade in food stuff, including meat and other animal‐based products.
