Investigating the ultimate factors that underpin the impacts of ski‐pistes on alpine species is crucial to identify concrete mitigation strategies. This is urgently needed given that winter sports are expanding in mountain ranges worldwide. We evaluated the impacts of ski‐pistes on the foraging behaviour of the white‐winged snowfinch, an iconic alpine ...

Detection of Porcine Circovirus 3 in Wildlife Species in Spain
Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV-3) is the third member of the family Circoviridae, genus Circovirus, able to infect swine. A high prevalence of viral DNA has been recorded in wild boars. Recently, PCV-3 DNA was identified in Italian wild ruminants.

A taste for dung: food preferences of dung beetles uncovered
Dung beetles have a generalist diet although they can develop preferences for specific excrements, such as elephant dung. Buffalo and wild boar dungs were broadly accepted among dung beetle species. In contrast, goat excrement was the least preferred. Abstract Insects represent the most megadiverse animal group, having evolved a wide range of feeding ...

Characterisation of the Historic Demographic Decline of the British European Polecat Population
ABSTRACT The European polecat (Mustela putorius) has a widespread distribution across many countries of mainland Europe but is documented to be declining within these ranges. In Britain, direct persecution led to a severe decline of the polecat population during the 19th century. Unlike European mainland populations, it is now recovering across much of

Streptococcus caprae sp. nov., isolated from Iberian ibex (Capra pyrenaica hispanica)
Biochemical and molecular genetic studies were performed on a novel Gram-stain-positive, catalase-negative, coccus-shaped organism isolated from tonsil samples of two Iberian ibexes. The micro-organism was identified as a streptococcal species based on its cellular, morphological and biochemical characteristics.
