A Method for Preparing Morphologically Preserved Wildlife Fecal Specimens for Long‐Term Ecological Studies

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study introduces a novel multistep immersion method to preserve wildlife fecal samples, maintaining morphological integrity, DNA stability (100% extraction success, > 99% BLAST match rates), and resistance to mold/insect damage for 6 months. The technique also enables heavy metal detection, transforming feces into a durable resource for long‐term ...

Single‐cell mRNA sequencing of giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) seminoma reveals the cellular and molecular characteristics of tumour cells

Veterinary Medicine and Science
Testicular tumours are zoonoses that can occur in not only human, but other animals, include giant pandas. A middle‐aged male giant panda named Fufu was diagnosed with a testicular tumour and underwent surgery to remove the entire left testis. The testis

Habitat Use and Selection by Giant Pandas

PLOS ONE, 2016
Animals make choices about where to spend their time in complex and dynamic landscapes, choices that reveal information about their biology that in turn can be used to guide their conservation. Using GPS collars, we conducted a novel individual-based analysis of habitat use and selection by the elusive and endangered giant pandas (Ailuropoda ...
