Co-infection patterns in the ectoparasitic community affecting the Iberian ibex Capra pyrenaica [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2023 Background Sarcoptic mange is one of the main parasitic diseases affecting the Iberian ibex Capra pyrenaica. Scabietic animals suffer a decline in body condition and reproductive fitness and in severe cases may die.

Molecular Analyses Reveal Unexpected Genetic Structure in Iberian Ibex Populations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 BackgroundGenetic differentiation in historically connected populations could be the result of genetic drift or adaptation, two processes that imply a need for differing strategies in population management. The aim of our study was to use neutral genetic

Ivermectin Plasma Concentration in Iberian Ibex (Capra pyrenaica) Following Oral Administration: A Pilot Study [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022 Sarcoptic mange is considered the main driver of demographic declines occurred in the last decades in Iberian ibex (Capra pyrenaica) populations. Mass treatment campaigns by administration of in-feed acaricides are used as a measure to mitigate the ...

First report of interspecific transmission of sarcoptic mange from Iberian ibex to wild boar [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2021 Background Sarcoptic mange is a globally distributed parasitic disease caused by the burrowing mite Sarcoptes scabiei. This mite has a certain degree of host specificity, although interspecific transmission can occur among phylogenetically related ...

The local skin cellular immune response determines the clinical outcome of sarcoptic mange in Iberian ibex (Capra pyrenaica) [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023 IntroductionSarcoptic mange, caused by Sarcoptes scabiei, is a disease with implications for wildlife conservation and management. Its severity depends on the host’s local skin immune response, which is largely unknown in Iberian ibex (Capra pyrenaica ...
