Camouflage or Coincidence? Investigating the Effects of Spatial and Temporal Environmental Features on Feral Cat Morphology in Tasmania

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2024.
Feral cats (Felis catus) have spread across Australia over the past 200 years, displaying various coat types, yet it remains unknown if any offers an adaptive advantage. Using a dataset of 24,657 camera‐trap images, we examined if any coat types correlate with spatial or temporal features.

The Dynamic Proliferation of CanSINEs Mirrors the Complex Evolution of Feliforms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Repetitive short interspersed elements (SINEs) are retrotransposons ubiquitous in mammalian genomes and are highly informative markers to identify species and phylogenetic associations. Of these, SINEs unique to the order Carnivora (CanSINEs)

Characterization of antimicrobial resistance profiles in Escherichia coli isolated from captive mammals in Ecuador

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 10, Issue 4, July 2024.
Among 90 E. coli isolates from 70 mammals, significant resistance was found to ampicillin (52.22%), ceftriaxone (42.22%) and cefuroxime (42.22%), with 27.78% being ESBL‐producing. Notably, 66.67% of isolates showed resistance to at least one antibiotic, and 35.56% exhibited multiresistant phenotypes.

Recurrent Evolution of Melanism in South American Felids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Morphological variation in natural populations is a genomic test bed for studying the interface between molecular evolution and population genetics, but some of the most interesting questions involve non-model organisms that lack well annotated reference

Mapping nut‐cracking in a new population of wild capuchin monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus) at Ubajara National Park, Brazil

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 86, Issue 4, April 2024.
Capuchin monkeys (Sapajus libidinosus) at Ubajara National Park, Brazil, customarily use hammerstones to crack open at least two species of palm nuts, macaúba and babaçu. We systematically surveyed stone tool use sites in this park, recording and measuring stone tools, processed foods, and available lithic resources.

Conservation detection dogs: A critical review of efficacy and methodology

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.
Conservation detection dogs (CDD) can be effective and applied to possibly limitless conservation scenarios but moving forward researchers must provide more consistent and detailed methodologies so that comparisons can be conducted, results are more easily replicated and progress can be made in standardising CDD work. This review aims to summarise what
