Gut microbiota in reintroduction of giant panda [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 AbstractReintroduction is a key approach in the conservation of endangered species. In recent decades, many reintroduction projects have been conducted for conservation purposes, but the rate of success has been low. Given the important role of gut microbiota in health and diseases, we questioned whether gut microbiota would play a crucial role in ...

Adjusting Our Thinking About Feeding Animals: Fiber as the Metric for Mimicking Natural Diets
Zoo Biology, EarlyView.A typical effect of the change of an animal group to a diet higher in fiber: juveniles keep growing, animals of ideal body weight maintain their weight, and obese individuals lose weight. ABSTRACT Free‐ranging animals often ingest markedly different diets than their counterparts under human care, whether companion animals, production animals, or zoo ...

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The success of nuclear reprogramming techniques, including the G0/G1 synchronization of somatic cells, depends on species‐specific optimization. While roscovitine and serum starvation have been successfully applied in domestic and wild terrestrial mammals, their use in aquatic mammals remains poorly investigated.

Banking Biodiversity: Ex Vivo Solutions for a Planet in Crisis
Zoo Biology, EarlyView.Genetic diversity is being lost faster than it can be cataloged. Biobanking preserves cells, gametes, and DNA as recoverable material for future conservation use, and delivers most when collections are established proactively rather than deployed once populations are already critically depleted.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Climate change and anthropogenic activities drive antagonistic degradation of landscape connectivity for endangered François’ langur (1987–2024), causing 48.8% habitat loss, north‐south fragmentation, and centroid migration (1.2 km/yr). Despite protected areas buffering connectivity, static management fails dynamic priority habitats; we propose ...
