The variability of giraffe skull morphology

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
What does giraffe skull shape tell us about their development and evolution? Abstract Giraffe (Giraffa spp.) are among the most unique and charismatic extant animals, largely due to their distinct morphology. The evolutionary and developmental origin of ossicones is a key factor in giraffid biology, yet other features building their characteristic head

Plasma Pharmacokinetic Profile of Fipronil 1% Pour‐On in Cattle: Photodegradation and the Sustained Systemic Persistence of Fipronil Sulfone

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study characterized the long‐term pharmacokinetic profile of a 1% fipronil pour‐on formulation in Nellore bulls under field conditions. Seventeen animals received a single topical dose (1 mg/kg), and plasma concentrations of fipronil and its metabolites (sulfone and desulfinyl) were monitored for 175 days using LC–MS/MS.

Systematics of Marmosa Subgenus Micoureus With Emphasis in ‘rapposa’ Group (Didelphidae, Marmosini): Geographic Variation and Revalidation of M. budini

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Micoureus is the most species‐rich subgenus within the genus Marmosa. Conflicting arrangements regarding the number of species comprising this subgenus have been proposed and the validity of M. budini has been debated. Here, we used an approach integrating genetic and morphological data were conducted to reanalyze the ‘rapposa’ group ...

Fish loss in tropical coastal ecosystems can jeopardise nutrient supply to traditional fishing communities: A case study from Northeast Brazil

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1248-1260, May 2026.
Abstract Fisheries constitute one of the major benefits that oceans provide for people. Yet anthropogenic pressures and global changes are disrupting coastal systems, eroding marine biodiversity and threatening the food security of traditional populations.

Weathering the Dry: Behaviour of the Marsupial Glider Petaurus notatus in Inland New South Wales, Australia

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Taxonomic revision can introduce uncertainty into conservation assessment by reshaping species boundaries, distributions, and the interpretation of historical data. Here, we integrated ecological and threat‐related information for a recently revised mammal species to evaluate its responses to climate extremes and an introduced predator within ...

Challenges of Introgression in Conservation: Genetic Diversity of the Endangered Wild Camel (Camelus ferus) in Mongolia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Using non‐invasive nuclear and mitochondrial analysis, this study reveals evidence of introgression in critically endangered Wild Camels (Camelus ferus) from the domestic Bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus), alongside reduced genetic diversity and higher inbreeding in both in situ and ex situ populations in Mongolia.

Rebreeding of Female Mountain Lions After Litter Mortality

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We documented rapid rebreeding by female mountain lions (Puma concolor) following litter loss, including the shortest known rebreeding interval to date. These observations highlight the importance of infanticide and intraguild competition in shaping female fitness and population dynamics.

Estimating the Impacts of Future Extreme Heat on Dryland Threatened Mammals: An Australian Case Study

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
Label: Dryland mammals and heat risk. Description: Using Australia's threatened dryland mammals as a model system, we developed a framework comparing historical, current and future heat envelopes to quantify exposure to novel thermal conditions, identify potential thermal refugia and evaluate the suitability of conservation translocation sites.
