Replace, reduce, refine: A review of animal use in Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans research

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Animal experimentation is common in wildlife disease research. Understanding the impact of this often‐lethal approach is therefore a critical line of inquiry at the intersection of animal welfare and conservation biology. The discovery of the pathogenic salamander chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) in 2013 ignited a large ...

Curating the Unexpected: Stéphane Thidet's “Weeping Stones” Transformed During COVID‐19

Curator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A monumental work by French artist Stéphane Thidet became the nexus for an unexpected interaction between an art installation and wildlife. “Weeping Stones,” which presents a desert‐like world, devoid of greenery, was featured in an exhibition we co‐curated at the Genia Schreiber University Gallery, Tel Aviv, Israel, in January 2020.

Comparative Study of Laboratory Diets for Piophila casei: Beneficial Effects of Infant Formula Supplementation

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The infant formula‐based diet (F), the whole powder milk diet (P), and dry‐cured ham (H) were evaluated for rearing Piophila casei. H accelerated development, promoted earlier reproduction, and achieved the highest demographic performance but showed practical limitations linked to substrate deterioration. F enhanced larval survival and adult longevity,

A review on true dung beetles' evolutionary and ecological responses to temperature and impacts on ecosystem functions

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
True dung beetles are a speciose group of ecosystem engineers that play key roles as detritivores in natural and agricultural landscapes. Scarabaeine beetles show strong thermal plasticity and there is increasing evidence of rapid evolutionary divergence in response to temperature across ecological and evolutionary timescales, with likely consequences ...
