Host‐feeding preferences of Culex pipiens and its potential significance for flavivirus transmission in the Camargue, France

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 614-625, September 2025.
We identified Culex pipiens bloodmeals at the species level in natural, agricultural and peri‐urban habitats and calculated host preferences based on forage ratios. This analysis showed Passeriformes, and in particular Columba livia, Passer montanus and Turdus sp., to be the preferred Cx. pipiens hosts.

Aging cheetahs using gum‐line recession and evaluation of expert‐based aging techniques

Journal of Zoology, Volume 326, Issue 3, Page 207-213, July 2025.
Knowledge of animal age is important for population management of wildlife. We show for the first time how gum‐line recession of canine teeth can be used to age cheetahs. We also compare gum‐line recession estimates with expert opinion‐based aging and discuss cheetah age assignment techniques.

Risk posed by the HPAI virus H5N1, Eurasian lineage goose/Guangdong clade 2.3.4.4b. genotype B3.13, currently circulating in the US

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5N1), clade 2.3.4.4b, genotype B3.13 in U.S. dairy cattle marks a significant shift in the virus' host range and epidemiological profile. Infected cattle typically exhibit mild clinical signs, such as reduced milk production, mastitis and fever, with morbidity generally below 20% and
