Molecular sexing of tigers, Panthera tigris [PDF]
Conservation Genetics Resources, 2011 We report the development of a fast and reliable PCR-based method for sex identification of tiger DNA designed to be incorporated into fluorescent short tandem repeat (STR) profiling. A single primer pair, consisting of a fluorescently-labelled forward primer and an unlabelled reverse primer, is used to co-amplify homologous fragments of a zinc finger (

Exploring legal‐ and health‐risk messaging to reduce demand for elephant skin
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) are poached for an illegal trade in their skins, which are used in traditional medicine in Africa and Asia. We explored whether messages about the legal and health risks of using elephant skin for medicinal purposes (stomach illness) could reduce such consumption.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.In this study, we provide a detailed description of the shoulder and brachium muscles and the brachial plexus of the domestic cat (Felis catus). We identified muscular variants (articularis humeri, coracobrachialis longus, biceps brachii caput breve), clarified the independence of the anconeus medialis muscle from the triceps brachii muscle, and ...

Wildlife Roadkill in Chitwan, Nepal: Identifying Affected Species, Potential Drivers and Hotspots
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.A total of 618 cases involving 36 species of wild vertebrates were reported on sections of National Highways H01 and H05. Comparatively, species richness in road kills was higher on highway H01 (n = 343) than on H05 (n = 275). The road sections that cross between forests, forest edges, and residential areas consistently increase the number of ...

Serum prevalence to non-viral pathogens in wild felids of Southern Primorye, Russia
Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2019 Serum prevalence to six different non-viral pathogens was estimated for big Russian cats (Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) and the Far Eastern leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis)) in Southern Primorye, Russia (n = 26) in 2008–2016.
