Influence of Food Distribution and Relatedness on Social Interactions in a Colony of Free‐Ranging Domestic Cats (Felis catus)

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
In a free‐ranging colony of domestic cats, individuals engaged in affiliative but not agonistic behaviors in a selective manner. The distribution of food resources but not relatedness influenced affiliative interactions between dyads of cats. When food was provided at feeding stations, there was a similar distribution of affiliative interactions among ...

Genome-based analysis of the nonhuman primate Macaca fascicularis as a model for drug safety assessment.

open access: yesGenome Research, 2011
The long-tailed macaque, also referred to as cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis), is one of the most important nonhuman primate animal models in basic and applied biomedical research. To improve the predictive power of primate experiments for humans,

Is Paw Preference in Rats Influenced by Environmental Novelty?

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
This study aimed to investigate the effect of environmental novelty during adolescence and adulthood on the paw preference in rats. Therefore, rats experienced a regular enrichment change and were repeatedly tested for their paw preference. We found that a regular enrichment change did not alter their behavioural lateralisation.

Life history data derived from the dental histological analysis of Giraffa camelopardalis: Implications for the palaeohistology of extinct giraffids

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The study of incremental lines in the dentine (left), cementum (centre) and enamel (right) of the giraffe revealed key information about the rate and pattern of dental growth in this vertebrate. These results were also useful to obtain data on the biology and life history of the species and sets the stage for future palaeohistological analysis in ...

Risky behavior of Asian black bears differs between sex and season in a landscape fragmented by roads

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
We investigated sex and seasonal differences in the road crossing behavior of Asian black bears (Ursus thibetanus) living in central Honshu Island, Japan, as an example of wildlife risk‐taking behavior in a highly fragmented landscape. Our results show that Asian black bears generally avoid crossing roads, and that there are seasonal differences in ...
