Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Dentitions have diversified enormously during vertebrate evolution, involving reductions, modifications, or allocations to prey seizing and processing regions. A combination of ancient and novel features related to dental and oropharyngeal apparatuses is found in extant lineages of non‐teleost fishes, such as the gars.

Species traits mediate terrestrial mammal density responses to human impacts
Ecography, EarlyView.Human activities are reshaping ecosystems, but their effects on species population density remain poorly understood. Most studies focus on species presence–absence, thus limiting insight into how anthropogenic pressures affect population density. Emerging evidence suggests that responses of natural populations to human disturbance are highly variable ...

Unveiling the significance of dog domestication in cognitive dysfunction: Are wolves protected?
Open Veterinary JournalOver the course of their long coexistence with humans, dogs have developed a stronger bond with humans than with any other domestic species. This close relationship has promoted notable parallels in both genetics and lifestyle, thereby facilitating the ...

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objectives Acute symptomatic epileptic seizures (ASySs) occur in temporal proximity to acute brain insults. Given their low risk of subsequent unprovoked seizures, current guidelines recommend either no treatment with anti‐seizure medication (ASM) or early discontinuation, yet ASM treatment is often continued beyond hospital discharge.

Comparison of Activity Patterns for American Beavers, Gray Wolves, and Muskrats
, 2021 American beavers (Castor canadensis) share the same niche as muskrats (Ondatra zibethicus) by creating lodges and they compete with one another when their vegetation needs overlap. Beavers face predation from gray wolves (Canis lupus).

Dogs, but Not Wolves, Lose Their Sensitivity Toward Novelty With Age
Frontiers in Psychology, 2019 Selection of behavioral traits holds a prominent role in the domestication of animals, and domesticated species are generally assumed to express reduced fear and reactivity toward novel stimuli compared to their ancestral species.
