Rebreeding of Female Mountain Lions After Litter Mortality. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
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.

Coprology of Panthera tigris altaica and Felis bengalensis euptilurus From the Russian Far East [PDF]

Journal of Parasitology, 2007
Fecal samples from the Siberian tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) and the Amur cat (Felis bengalensis euptilurus) from Far Eastern Russia, were examined for parasites. A natural sedimentation methodology was used and a complete examination of all the sediment was performed. This fecal investigation allowed us to isolate and identify several developmental
