Oryctolagus cuniculus cuniculus y Oryctolagus cuniculus algirus: ¿existen variaciones en su comportamiento?

, 2012
En la Península Ibérica coexisten los dos linajes de conejo de monte que se reconocen, y se corresponden con las subespecies Oryctolagus cuniculus cuniculus y Oryctolagus cuniculus algirus. Estas subespecies presentan un área de distribución geográfica bien definida, existiendo una franja de hibridación natural en la zona de contacto.

Development and validation of a cephalic conformation scoring system for the domestic rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus)

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Extreme cephalic conformation has been theorised to be associated with compromised health in rabbits. However, recognition and assessment of such phenotypes remain largely subjective. This study aimed to develop and validate a visual, semi‐quantitative system for head shape phenotype in rabbits.

Coccidiosis of the wild rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in France [PDF]

Parasite, 2003
In 1998-1999 a survey of coccidiosis in wild rabbits was carried out in six different localities in France. About five individuals were caught monthly in each locality and a total of 254 wild rabbits was examined. Ten species of Coccidio were identified: Eimeria perforans, E. flavescens, E. piriformis, E. exigua, E. media, E. magna, E.

Nocturnal neighbors: exploring residents' perceptions of urban wildlife related to animal traits identified by camera traps and literature

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife in urban areas is often a source of conflict, yet relatively few efforts have been directed toward fostering coexistence in these human‐dominated landscapes. While previous research has focused on socio‐demographic factors influencing perceptions of wildlife, the role of specific animal traits in shaping acceptance remains underexplored.

The wolf is back! Non‐consumptive effects of the return of a large carnivore on the use of supplementary feeding sites by roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus

Isotopic evidence for the consumption of Galliformes by the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) in rural southern England

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic resource subsidies can drive mesopredator population growth, altering predator–prey dynamics. The red fox Vulpes vulpes is a generalist canid that can readily exploit such subsidies. In the UK, tens of millions of pheasants Phasianus colchicus and red‐legged partridges Alectoris rufa are released annually for sport shooting, potentially ...

Extinction Debt Paid Off: The Demise of the European Polecat (Mustela putorius) in NE Iberia

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We studied a vanishing polecat population for a decade, until its ultimate demise, using camera trap and roadkill data, landscape descriptors and dietary and toxicological analyses.Polecat favoured farmland and avoided forests and water bodies occupied by the invasive American mink.

A pathological study of Leishmania infantum natural infection in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and Iberian hares (Lepus granatensis)

, 2019
In this study, we describe the pathology of Leishmania infantum infection in naturally infected wild Leporidae and compare diagnosis of infection using histopathology, direct fluorescent antibody (DFA) assay, immunofluorescence antibody test (IFAT) and ...
