Excretion of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci by Wild Mammals

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2002
A survey of fecal samples found enterococcal excretion in 82% of 388 bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus), 92% of 131 woodmice (Apodemus sylvaticus), and 75% of 165 badgers (Meles meles). Vancomycin-resistant enterococci, all Enterococcus faecium of vanA

Quantifying the relative predation pressure on bumblebee nests by the European badger (Meles meles) using artificial nests

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Bumblebee populations are declining. Factors that impact the size and success of colonies act by either limiting resource availability (bottom‐up regulation) or causing mortality, for example, pesticides, disease, and possibly predation (top‐down ...

Organization of observations near underground shelters of burrowing carnivorans: a comparison of different methods

Theriologia Ukrainica, 2021
Observations near the burrows gives rich material on the biology, intraspecific and interspecific interactions, and individual behaviour of animals. In our work, we considered four methods of observation (visual observations, visual observations with ...

Identification and epidemiological analysis of Perostrongylus falciformis infestation in Irish badgers

Irish Veterinary Journal, 2019
Background The lungworm, Perostrongylus falciformis (fomerly known as Aelurostrongylus falciformis) has been identified in badgers (Meles meles) in Britain, the Russian Federation, Italy, Norway, Poland, Ukraine, Bosnia Herzegovina and Romania, while ...

Bovine tuberculosis in cattle and badgers in localized culling areas [PDF]

, 2009
Bovine tuberculosis (TB) is a zoonotic disease that can have serious consequences for cattle farming and, potentially, for public health. In Britain, failure to control bovine TB has been linked to persistent infection of European badger (Meles meles ...

Abundance of badgers (Meles meles) in England and Wales

Scientific Reports, 2017
The European badger (Meles meles) is of considerable interest in the UK as it is both a protected species and the main wildlife reservoir for bovine tuberculosis infection in cattle. While there have been three national badger surveys in the 1980s, 1990s

Cooperative Goniopolar and Anomalous Nernst Transverse Thermoelectricity in Kagome Magnets

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A cooperative transverse thermoelectric mechanism is realized in kagome magnets, where axis‐dependent goniopolar effects and Berry curvature‐driven anomalous Nernst coexist within the same energy window. In MgMn6Sn6, this intrinsic synergy yields a record room‐temperature transverse thermopower of 15.6 µV K−1, establishing a general strategy for high ...

Molecular identification of badger-associated Babesia sp. DNA in dogs: updated phylogeny of piroplasms infecting Caniformia

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Piroplasms are unicellular, tick-borne parasites. Among them, during the past decade, an increasing diversity of Babesia spp. has been reported from wild carnivores. On the other hand, despite the known contact of domestic and wild carnivores (
