The usual suspects: Co-occurrence of integument injuries in turkey flocks. [PDF]
The present study investigated the prevalence and co-occurrence of integument injuries in Canadian turkeys. Participating farmers scored 30 birds in their flock for integument injuries to the head/neck (HN), back/tail (BT), and footpad (FP) using a ...

High frequency of chlamydial co-infections in clinically healthy sheep flocks
Background The epidemiological situation of ovine chlamydial infections in continental Europe, especially Germany is poorly characterised. Using the German state of Thuringia as a model example, the chlamydial sero- and antigen prevalence was estimated ...

Abstract Understanding how group-level dynamics arise from individual interactions re- mains a core challenge in collective behavior research. Traditional models assume that animals follow simple behavioral rules, like explicitly aligning with neighbors, yet experimental support for such interactions is often lacking. Here we consider a

The authors discuss algorithms to detect flocks in moving objects. They start with a set of \(n\) identities in the plane and the position of the entities at time steps \(t_1,\dots, t_\tau\). It is supposed that these time steps are taken synchronously for all the identities and that the movement between the steps is linear at constant speed.
