Financial Development, Income Inequality, and Trade

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of financial development (FD) on income inequality in a general‐equilibrium model with credit constraints and international trade. I show that a single mechanism—the interaction between financial and trade selection effects—reconciles a range of seemingly conflicting results: FD always reduces inequality between ...

True metabolizable energy of moist‐soil seeds among dabbling duck species

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We quantified TMEN for moist‐soil plant seed species (Cyperus erythrorhizos, Cyperus iria, Panicum rigidulum, Polygonum hydropiperoides, Polygonum lapathifolium, Sesbania herbacea) among 3 species of dabbling duck (mallard [Anas platyrhynchos], northern pintail [A. acuta], and green‐winged teal [A. crecca]).

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 ...

Feeding Practices and Welfare of Zoo‐Housed Giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis) on a Global Scale

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
We collected feeding and stereotypy information on 702 giraffes from 146 zoos from all over the world. Less appropriate diets were linked to more oral stereotypies. ABSTRACT Since giraffe feeding practices have only been reported for European and US facilities, this study aimed to achieve a comprehensive overview of the current giraffe feeding ...

Impact of a High‐Fiber, Fruitless Diet on the Gut Microbiome, and Health of Captive Orangutans

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
Transitioning captive orangutans to a high‐fiber, fruitless diet improved gut microbiome diversity, enhanced gastrointestinal health, and reduced stress‐related behaviors. This study demonstrates the significant benefits of tailored dietary interventions in promoting the health and welfare of zoo‐housed primates.

Impact of Two High‐Fiber Dietary Transitions on Fecal Consistency and Microbiota Composition in Captive Dromedary Camels (Camelus dromedarius) With Chronic Recurrent Diarrhea: A Pilot Study

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
High‐fiber dietary interventions reshaped the gut microbiota of captive dromedaries with chronic recurrent diarrhea, but responses varied among individuals. Despite taxonomic shifts, microbial metabolic functions remained remarkably stable, supporting the resilience of the dromedary gut ecosystem and the use of fiber‐based dietary management.
