Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1120-1139, August 2025.ABSTRACT The Florisian Land Mammal Age (FLMA; 773‐12 ka) is characterised by specialist, often extinct, grazing as well as wetland species, many of which are no longer present in the southern African interior. Middle Pleistocene FLMA faunal assemblages are rare, particularly those associated with artefacts, limiting reconstruction of environmental ...

Spatial and temporal avoidance of risk within a large carnivore guild
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 189-199, January 2017., 2017 Utilization distributions for each pair of species for which we tested associations. In each panel, the outline denotes the boundaries of the 1,200‐km2 focal study area, and the intensity of color indicates intensity of use. Abstract Within a large carnivore guild, subordinate competitors (African wild dog, Lycaon pictus, and cheetah, Acinonyx jubatus)

Rapid detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex in cattle and lechwe (Kobus leche kafuensis) at the slaughter house [PDF]
Veterinary Science Development, 2011 The detection and diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) in food-producing animals is critical to human health. In this study we applied the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) system to detect <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</em> complex (MTC) directly in 57 cattle and six lechwe (<em>Kobus leche kafuensis</em>) carcasses ...

Cytochrome c Oxidase Sequences of Zambian Wildlife Helps to Identify Species of Origin of Meat
International Journal of Zoology, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016 Accurate species identification is a crucial tool in wildlife conservation. Enforcement of antipoaching law is more achievable with robust molecular identification of poached meat. Determining the region where the animal may have been taken from would also be a useful tool in suppression of cross‐border trade of poached meat.

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 10, October 2024.We use data from the CITES Trade Database and the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species to evaluate the merits of the Hunting Trophies (Import Prohibition) Bill that was discussed in the UK Parliament between 2022 and 2024. We find that the proposed legislation is disproportionate because trophy hunting is not a major threat to any species or subspecies ...
