Molecular Regulation of Post‐Hatching Embryo Development: Implications for Early Pregnancy Losses in Livestock Species

open access: yesReproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue S3, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Pregnancy loss (PL) remains a major limitation to reproductive efficiency in livestock, with a substantial proportion originating during early embryo development, particularly between blastocyst hatching and implantation. This developmental window encompasses complex processes of lineage differentiation and morphogenesis. Accumulating evidence

Exploitation of Rabbits at the Dawn of the Holocene: Evidence From the Font Voltada Site (Northeastern Iberia) Using Comparative Neotaphonomic Models

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 865-882, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT During the transition from the Pleistocene to the Holocene, hunter‐gatherer societies in the northeastern Iberian Peninsula increased the number of settlements and broadened their subsistence strategies. This period is marked by the appearance of terrestrial snail accumulations attributable to human harvesting, the expansion of specialized ...

La utilidad de los modelos de distribución de especies en la gestión cinegética de los ungulados silvestres [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2014
The usefulness of species distribution models in hunting management of wild ungulates We developed a distribution model of Iberian ibex (Capra pyrenaica) using the maximum entropy method (Maxent) based on information from the database of the Spanish ...

Sarcoptic mange breaks up bottom-up regulation of body condition in a large herbivore population

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Both parasitic load and resource availability can impact individual fitness, yet little is known about the interplay between these parameters in shaping body condition, a key determinant of fitness in wild mammals inhabiting seasonal ...

A GIS‐Based Approach to Modeling Carnivore Activity in the Pleistocene Site of Cova del Rinoceront (Iberian Peninsula)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 908-924, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT A significant methodological difficulty in the interpretation of Pleistocene zooarchaeological assemblages is the identification of taphonomic agents that modify and break bones. Carnivores, in particular, have been a main focus, as competition with carnivores may have affected carcass acquisition opportunities for humans in the past.

Relationships Between European Wildcats and Domestic Cats in an Area of Sympatry: Exploring Key Conservation Questions on Hybridization and Disease Transmission

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 321-333, June 2026.
We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.

Microsatellite-based genotyping of MHC class II DRB1 gene in Iberian and Alpine ibex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In an analysis of a microsatellite locus (OLADRB1) linked to the MHC DRB1 gene of Iberian and Alpine ibex (Capra pyrenaica and Capra ibex), we detected strong linkage disequilibrium between both loci.

DNA integrity and viability of testicular cells from diverse wild species after slow freezing or vitrification

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
Introduction and objectiveCryopreservation of testicular tissues offers new possibilities to protect endangered species, genetically valuable individuals or even the fertility potential of prepubertal individuals who have died unexpectedly.

Large mammal recovery in the wake of human population decline

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Human depopulation, particularly in rural areas, has contributed to the recovery of some large mammal populations. While recovery is generally good news for conservation, it can also lead to human‐wildlife conflict. We present several avenues to maximize coexistence in the face of further rural depopulation in other places. Read the free Plain Language
