Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Water availability strongly influences the ecology of terrestrial birds and mammals. It will likely play an increasing role as a limiting factor as climate change and human demand make water availability scarcer. However, we lack a knowledge synthesis describing our current understanding of the use of water sources, particularly for wildlife hydration.

Composition of White Rhinoceros Colostrum and Changes During Early Lactation to Mature Milk
Zoo Biology, EarlyView.The colostrum phase of white rhinoceros milk ends after 2 days of lactation. The mature milk phase commences after 5 days. The fat content peaks at days 3–4. The Δ9‐desaturase 16 and ‐18 indexes peak at days 2–3. ABSTRACT The proximate composition of milk from seven free‐ranging white rhinoceroses during the first 20 days of lactation is reported with ...

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract We measured the BASAL breathing frequency following an overnight fast in adult, non‐pregnant/non‐lactating, inactive mammals ranging in body mass from 15 to 5520 kg. The data included results from 338 individual animals from 34 species that were divided into terrestrial, semi‐aquatic (Otariidae and Phocidae) and aquatic mammals.
