Historical Development of Zoo Tapir (Tapirus ssp.) Survivorship
The survivorship of tapirs in zoos has improved significantly over historical time. ABSTRACT Tapirs (Tapirus spp.) are large, long‐lived herbivores native to Central and South America and Southeast Asia. All species are currently classified as Vulnerable (T. terrestris) or Endangered (other species) in the IUCN SSC Red List.

High‐fiber dietary interventions reshaped the gut microbiota of captive dromedaries with chronic recurrent diarrhea, but responses varied among individuals. Despite taxonomic shifts, microbial metabolic functions remained remarkably stable, supporting the resilience of the dromedary gut ecosystem and the use of fiber‐based dietary management.

Large‐Scale Applications of Plasma Technologies: Progresses and Challenges
ABSTRACT Plasma technologies convert electrical power into energetic electrons, ions, reactive species, radiation and heat, thereby breaking through the bottleneck of purely thermal or chemical routes and bringing impressive changes to our world. This roadmap reviews the progress and challenges of plasma technologies from a large‐scale and application ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding whether land use intensification causes regime shifts (i.e. persistent, large changes in ecosystem states) is of key importance for management, particularly if these shifts occur abruptly as thresholds in land use intensity are crossed.

Individual bumblebee foraging repertoires: Implications for disease persistence
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Generalist species may be comprised of individual specialists. Individual specialization can impact disease transmission at shared resources by shaping contact patterns. Mathematical models of pollinator diseases that spread via flowers have shown that R0 can be greatly
