The vomeronasal system of the wolf (Canis lupus signatus): The singularities of a wild canid

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 245, Issue 1, Page 109-136, July 2024.
The vomeronasal system (VNS) of the Iberian wolf is fully functional for pheromone‐mediated communication. Microscopic differences between the VNS of wolves and domestic dogs suggest neural changes due to domestication. These findings provide insights for innovative semiochemical‐based wolf population management strategies.

Rediscovery of Caloprymnus campestris (Marsupialia) [PDF]

Nature, 1932

There is a somewhat doubtful record of it in 1878, but no specimen of the animal exists in any museum in Australia, and there was much to justify
