Nationwide ranger-based survey reveals the widespread decline of the Iberian rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus algirus) in Spain

Global Ecology and Conservation
Scientists increasingly recognize the importance of evolutionary-based conservation strategies to better protect biodiversity, emphasizing that population units that diverged long ago may warrant priority for conservation and distinct management as ...

Conservative Safety Assessment of a Nitinol Microhook Coaptation Device on Intact Nerve

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Nerve Tape is a novel nerve coaptation device that eliminates the technical challenges of microsuturing. The device incorporates tissue‐engaging Nitinol microhooks within a flexible backing of decellularized porcine small intestine submucosa (SIS).

The rabbit as an animal model for experimental surgery O coelho como modelo animal para cirurgia experimental

Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2009
The white New Zealand rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) is frequently used as a model for in vivo studies. However, information on precautions when using this animal as an experimental model is limited.

Exploitation of Rabbits at the Dawn of the Holocene: Evidence From the Font Voltada Site (Northeastern Iberia) Using Comparative Neotaphonomic Models

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the transition from the Pleistocene to the Holocene, hunter‐gatherer societies in the northeastern Iberian Peninsula increased the number of settlements and broadened their subsistence strategies. This period is marked by the appearance of terrestrial snail accumulations attributable to human harvesting, the expansion of specialized ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective

Oikos, EarlyView.
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Mechanisms and impacts of future plant invasions: research agendas and management needs under disruptive social‐ecological change scenarios

Oikos, EarlyView.
No‐analogue futures are characteristic of the Anthropocene, but how global change, and societies' responses, will affect plant invasions remains unclear. Conducting research now to address future needs is crucial for guiding invasion management and policy.

Taxonomic identity of invasive rabbits in Cuba: first record of Eastern Cottontail, Sylvilagus floridanus (Mammalia: Lagomorpha) [PDF]

Check List, 2015
In islands of the West Indian zoogeographical region, rabbits are not native, and wild populations are the result of introductions. Oryctolagus cuniculus is the only lagomorph listed among the introduced mammals of the Cuban archipelago.

Home and away: allometry and climate drive morphology of European rabbits in their native and introduced range

Oikos, EarlyView.
Climatic conditions shape phenotypic evolution by driving adaptations that optimise organismal function. Invasive species provide valuable systems to study these processes, as they often encounter novel climatic conditions in their introduced ranges. The European rabbit Oryctolagus cuniculus, native to the Iberian Peninsula, has established populations
