Limited capacity for rapid acclimation to marine heatwaves in coastal invertebrates

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 10, Page 2088-2103, October 2026.
Across 10 coastal invertebrate species, we provide a rare multi‐species test of rapid acclimation to realistic marine heatwaves. Responses are consistently weak, revealing that short‐term plasticity cannot keep pace with warming and may lead to underestimated vulnerability in coastal ecosystems. Abstract Marine heatwaves are increasing in frequency and

Hoof Overgrowth in Saanen Goats: A Study on Relationship Between Hoof Overgrowth, White Line Disease, Lameness and Body Condition [PDF]

open access: yes
Hoof diseases are very common causes of lameness and hoof health, is very important factor for productivity and yield capacity in the small ruminants. This study was conducted in 97 Saanen goats aged 12-18 months, and weighing between 30-40 kg.

The Hoof as the Sentinel of Systemic Failure: The Lameness Triad and the Susceptibility–Resilience Gate in Dairy Cows

open access: yesDairy
Lameness is a major welfare and economic disorder in dairy production and a clinical sign with multiple causes. This review focuses on claw horn disruption lesions (CHDL), a major cause of periparturient lameness.

The benefits of multidisciplinary collaboration in the successful management of two complex feline cases

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 10, Page 710-718, October 2026.
Despite a frequent misconception that behavioural concerns are diagnoses of exclusion, medical conditions and behavioural disorders are frequently inter‐related. In human medicine, the ‘multidisciplinary team’ approach (MDTA) is considered the most efficacious way of managing patients with complex and chronic health conditions.

Prevalence and distribution of hoof lesions in Southern Italian dairy farms adopting regular hoof trimming between 2016 and 2020: A retrospective observational study

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science
: Lameness, primarily caused by hoof lesions, is a major concern for the dairy industry. Although regular hoof trimming is widely used as part of prevention and treatment, its long-term effects are not fully understood.

Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth I: Complete myology in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 714-736, October 2026.
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and prolonged suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and accordingly demonstrate myological traits consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the elbow joint, and grip on the support.
