Ecology of reintroduced Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep in Dinosaur National Monument La Ecología de Borrego Cimarron de las Montañas Rocosas Reintroducido en el Monumento Nacional de Dinosaurio

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, Volume 223, Issue 1, August 2026.
We synthesized GPS telemetry, genetic, and pathogen data to evaluate metapopulation processes in a reintroduced Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis canadensis) population in Dinosaur National Monument. We estimated subpopulation‐specific abundances and found 4 small subpopulations with high genetic diversity, partial connectivity, and ...

Probing Cinnamamides and Benzamides as Anthelmintics: Discovery of Potent Drug‐Like Agents Against Angiostrongylus cantonensis

open access: yesChemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 108, Issue 1, July 2026.
Cynnamoyl benzylpiperazine was identified as drug‐like derivative of cinnarizine with anthelmintic activity against A. cantonensis. In this work, 15 out of 31 derivatives showed improved anthelmintic activity with increased solubility. A SAR study was carried out to determine the molecular features involved in such effect.

Lungworm Infections in German dairy cattle herds--seroprevalence and GIS-supported risk factor analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
In November 2008, a total of 19,910 bulk tank milk (BTM) samples were obtained from dairy farms from all over Germany, corresponding to about 20% of all German dairy herds, and analysed for antibodies against the bovine lungworm Dictyocaulus viviparus by

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Zoonotic risks in urban areas: Prevalence of helminth parasites in urban populations of Lissachatina fulica in Sarawak, Malaysia

open access: yesVeterinary Record Open, Volume 13, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Background The giant African land snail (Lissachatina fulica), an invasive species with significant medical, agricultural and economic importance, is abundant in urban areas of Kota Samarahan, Sarawak. The proximity between humans and the snail may increase the risk of pathogen transmission.

IL‐25 Enhances Eosinophil‐Associated Inflammation in Angiostrongylus cantonensis‐Infected Mice

open access: yesParasite Immunology, Volume 48, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the role of interleukin (IL)‐25 in the pathogenesis of angiostrongylosis. We used ICR mice as non‐permissive hosts, divided them into groups and experimentally infected them with infective larvae of the Angiostrongylus cantonensis.

Canine and feline lungworm infections in the UK

open access: yes, 2017
Lungworm infections in dogs and cats have gained attention in practice in recent years, driven largely by the spread of Angiostrongylus vasorum outside historically recognised endemic foci and associated efforts to increase awareness and encourage ...
