A taste for dung: food preferences of dung beetles uncovered
Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.Dung beetles have a generalist diet although they can develop preferences for specific excrements, such as elephant dung. Buffalo and wild boar dungs were broadly accepted among dung beetle species. In contrast, goat excrement was the least preferred. Abstract Insects represent the most megadiverse animal group, having evolved a wide range of feeding ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Cattle are relatively good endozoochorous seed dispersers. Could feeding cattle with the seeds of endozoochorous target species be used as a method to floristically enhance species‐poor, de‐intensified grasslands? Based on the five stages of seed dispersal, the possibilities and limitations of endozoochorous species establishment are outlined.

Hepatitis E Virus in Wild Boars and Spillover Infection in Red and Roe Deer, Germany, 2013–2015
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017 To determine animal hepatitis E virus (HEV) reservoirs, we analyzed serologic and molecular markers of HEV infection among wild animals in Germany. We detected HEV genotype 3 strains in inner organs and muscle tissues of a high percentage of wild boars ...

Energy metabolism of the roe deer [PDF]
Acta Theriologica, 1977 Energy metabolism of the roe deer Capreolus capreolus (Linnaeus, 1758) was investigated by means of the respirometric method. The level of metabolism in roe deer is similar to that of other wild ruminants but higher than the mean interspecies metabolism of mammals. Fasting heat production (FHP) shows seasonal variations, being the highest during spring

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Mountain woodland restoration can enhance upland biodiversity and contribute to nature‐based solutions mitigating climate change impacts. However, high‐altitude planting of trees and shrubs requires considerable commitment of time and practical effort and should be evidence‐based to prioritize scarce resources for efficient ...
