A 50‐year perspective on the use and potential of artiodactyl calcanei in bone adaptation studies
ABSTRACT Sheep and deer calcanei are important models for studying cortical (compact) and trabecular (cancellous) bone adaptation because they are amenable to direct strain measurement (due to lack of surrounding muscles), experience relatively simple/unidirectional bending, exhibit osteon remodelling, and have the most pronounced regional variations ...

The highest risk areas for the native species are at the forest edges where overlap exists between high habitat suitability and high cattle density. Disease surveillance and mitigation at the edges of fragmented forests, where high cattle density could be implemented to reduce the risk.

Global extinction of Slender‐billed Curlew (Numenius tenuirostris)
In the current biodiversity crisis, conservation efforts are often focused on extinction prevention. However, it can be difficult to determine if a species is extinct, especially if the species has an extensive range, including being a transcontinental migrant, or is poorly known. The breeding range of the migratory Critically Endangered Slender‐billed
