Spatiotemporal Distribution Patterns of Plateau Foxes and Their Lagomorph Prey in Baqing County, Tibet

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our study suggests pronounced spatiotemporal niche differentiation as a mechanism facilitating two mesocarnivores' coexistence, and enhances our understanding of the mechanisms underlying sympatric coexistence on the Tibetan Plateau. ABSTRACT Predation by carnivores is a fundamental driver of species evolution, shaping interspecific spatiotemporal ...

Spatio-temporal Analysis of An Invasive Alien Species, Vachellia nilotica, on Rodrigues Island, Mauritius, Using Geographic Information Systems and Remote Sensing Techniques

Indonesian Journal of Earth Sciences
Invasive alien species (IAS) constitute a large and growing environmental and socio-economic problem. Tropical islands, one of the richest habitats in the world, are especially vulnerable to invasions because of their island-specific flora and fauna ...

Sable at Shingwedzi [PDF]

Oryx, 1957
In May and June I spent three weeks in the Kruger National Park, staying at Skukuza, Letaba, Shingwedzi and Satara. Though all these places are intensely interesting, in many ways Shingwedzi is the best of all. Being the northernmost camp, except Punda Maria, it is less frequented, and the country more genuinely wild than the southern districts which ...

Feeding Behaviour in the KPC Model of Pancreatic Cancer‐Associated Cachexia: Alteration of Spontaneous and Evoked Feeding Behaviours

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The KPC mouse model of pancreatic cancer is gaining use in research, but detailed understanding of ingestive behaviour changes in this and other cachexia models is limited. Methods Male C57BL/6 J mice (7 weeks) were maintained under standard feed (PicoLab5L0D) and housing conditions (12:12 h; Light:Dark).

Local climate and genetic influence on intraspecific variation in torpor physiology of a cave‐roosting bat

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 857-867, April 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many small endotherms employ torpor as a survival strategy to reduce energy expenditure during periods with low food availability and cold temperatures. The expression and physiology of torpor can vary substantially within species because of phenotypic plasticity and ...

Low‐dose lithium supplementation promotes musculoskeletal and metabolic health in ovariectomized female mice

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 7, Page 2845-2866, 1 April 2026.
Abstract figure legend Low‐dose lithium supplementation in ovariectomized mice enhances skeletal muscle contractility (isometric force and fatigue resistance), SERCA function and promotes favourable transcriptional reprogramming, while increasing bone density and modestly improving insulin sensitivity.

Lack of GPNMB Is Associated With Altered Lipid and Glucose Metabolism and Disrupted Diurnal Hepatic Glycogen Regulation

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 6, 31 March 2026.
Loss of GPNMB function in mice fed a high‐fat/high‐fructose diet aggravated adiposity and dyslipidemia while preserving systemic glucose tolerance. This phenotype was associated with impaired hepatic AKT–FOXO1 signaling, increased NF‐κB activation, altered glycogen metabolism, and rhythmic disturbances in energy expenditure and clock gene expression ...
