Monitoring rodents' life history by body temperature and activity

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
European hamster populations are rapidly declining all over their distribution area. One of the suggested reasons is a strong and ongoing decrease in the reproductive output of about 77% since the nineteen twenties. The cause of this decline is, however, unknown.

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

Assessing survey techniques for eastern spotted skunks: camera traps, detection dogs, and scent lures

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Experimental layout comparing 3 survey methods (tree‐mounted cameras, enclosed camera traps, and a detection dog) and 2 scent lures (rabbit urine and weasel gland paste) for detecting eastern spotted skunks (Spilogale putorius) in Florida, USA. All survey methods yielded low but similar detection probabilities.

ZAN, IZUMO1, and TMEM95 Protein Domains Identify the Physiological Status of the Sperm

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Infertility is a growing concern, which has led to an increase in the use of assisted reproductive techniques, involving in vitro sperm capacitation. Nonetheless, the optimal capacitation time remains a matter of debate, and it is unknown whether it has an impact on the localization of key membrane proteins.
