A partial tarsometatarsus from the late Early Miocene of Siberia (Baikal Lake) is the first pre-Quaternary find of crown Psittaciformes in Asia (and Siberia in particular) and is also the northern-most find of this ...

Integumentary fibrosarcoma in a free‐living swan (Cygnus olor): Medical and welfare considerations
