Seasonal variation in wild pig (Sus scrofa) diet revealed by DNA metabarcoding

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Using DNA metabarcoding of fecal samples, we investigated the diet of wild pigs at an extensive bottomland hardwood forest ecosystem within Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge in Southern Arkansas. We found that wild pig diet was highly diverse and included at least 74 plant families and 106 genera and 23 species of vertebrates.

The Light Bite: Red‐Nosed Cuxiu (Chiropotes albinasus, Primates) Exploit Differential Penetrability of Hard Fruit Husks When Selecting Dental Puncture Sites

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.
Red‐nosed cuxiu are specialists in unripe seeds of hard‐husked fruits, which they access with massive jaw muscles and enlarged canines. But this costs energy and risks tooth breakage. The monkeys reduce both by biting at the softest spots on the fruit surface.
