Reevaluating the suitability of amphibians and reptiles for translocation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The scale of amphibian and reptile translocations over the past 16 years necessitates a reassessment of current practices since the last major review in 2009. We conducted a literature review of translocations from 2007 to 2023 and identified 313 case studies encompassing conservation‐, mitigation‐, and research‐related translocations.

Evaluation of Age Determination Techniques for Gray Wolves

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1998
We evaluated tooth wear, cranial suture fusion, closure of the canine pulp cavity, and cementum annuli as methods of age determination for known- and unknown-age gray wolves (Canis lupus) from Alaska, Minnesota, Ontario, and Isle Royale, Michigan. We developed age classes for cranial suture closure and tooth wear. We used measurement data obtained from

Seroprevalence of Neospora caninum in gray wolves in Scandinavia

Veterinary Parasitology, 2010
Transmission of the protozoan parasite Neospora caninum between wild and domestic animals has gained some interest during recent years. Because of the close relationship between gray wolf (Canis lupus) and dog it has been suggested that gray wolf is a definitive host for the parasite.

Immobilization of Gray Wolves (Canis lupus) with Sufentanil Citrate

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1990
Gray wolves (Canis lupus) were immobilized with 0.5 mg/kg xylazine plus 7.5 micrograms/kg of either sufentanil (n = 8), etorphine (n = 8), or carfentanil (n = 2). Drug doses used in this study were selected to provide consistency for comparison and are not recommended doses for effective immobilization of wolves.

Effects of Canine Parvovirus on Gray Wolves in Minnesota

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1995
Long-term effects of disease on wild animal population demography is not well documented. We studied a gray wolf (Canis lupus population in a 2,060-km 2 area of Minnesota for 15 years to determine its response to canine parvovirus (CPV). The CPV had little effect (P > 0.05) on wolf population size while epizootic during 1979-83.

Trap-Related Injuries to Gray Wolves in Minnesota

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1986
Gray wolves (Canis lupus) captured in traps with toothed jaws offset 1.8 cm incurred fewer injuries than those captured in 3 other types of steel traps. Few wolves seriously damaged canine or carnassial teeth while in traps. J. WILDL. MANAGE. 50(1):90-91 Van Ballenberghe (1984) noted that 44% of 109 wolves he captured in steel traps had "severe" foot ...

Electrocardiographic consequences of a peripatetic lifestyle in gray wolves (Canis lupus)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 1998
Cardiac chamber enlargement and hypertrophy are normal physiologic responses to repetitive endurance exercise activity in human beings and domestic dogs. Whether similar changes occur in wild animals as a consequence of increased activity is unknown. We found that free-ranging gray wolves (Canis lupus, n = 11), the archetypical endurance athlete, have ...

Diazepam-induced feeding in captive gray wolves (Canis lupus)

Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 1991
Diazepam doses of 0.2, 0.4, and 0.8 mg/kg induced feeding in sated gray wolves in a dose-dependent manner (p less than 0.001). Neither 0.8 mg/kg of the benzodiazepine antagonist, beta-CCP (p = 0.36), nor 0.8 mg/kg of the benzodiazepine inverse agonist, beta-CCE (p = 0.85), decreased the diazepam-induced hyperphagia.
