Illegal and Unsustainable Wildlife Hunting and Trade in Mongolia [PDF]

open access: yesMongolian Journal of Biological Sciences, 2004
Recent reports and studies document dramatic declines in a wide variety of wildlife species in Mongolia. The prime driver in these declines appears to be illegal and unsustainable hunting, both for local trade and consumption and for the international ...

A Novel Image‐Based Approach for Analyzing Neutrophil Chemotaxis Using a Boyden Chamber Assay

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 5, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Chemotaxis is a fundamental biological process in which cells such as leukocytes migrate directionally from one site to another in response to a chemical gradient. This process of cellular migration is critical for execution of appropriate physiological responses to inflammation, as observed during immune defense and wound healing responses ...

Across the edge: Spatial segregation drives community structure in tri‐trophic multilayer networks at a forest–grassland edge

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 11, Page 2205-2219, November 2025.
This study reveals how forest–grassland edges act as ecological barriers that shape tri‐trophic interaction networks. Using multilayer network theory, it uncovers how species influence and biodiversity patterns emerge across spatial layers, offering novel insights into edge‐driven community assembly and conservation in fire‐prone mosaics.

On the Identifiability of Genetic Parameters for Growth in Mice With a Massively Deep Pedigree

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 6, Page 706-717, November 2025.
ABSTRACT In models with direct and maternal genetic effects, structural features of the data are a potential source of bias and low accuracy of estimates for genetic covariance parameters. One of the well‐known reasons for such poor practical identifiability is the lack of dams with own observations.

Feather Microbiota Landscapes: Biogeography and Phenology Shape Feather Microbiota Traits in a Migratory Seabird in a Subantarctic Ecosystem

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 21, November 2025.
ABSTRACT It is known that phenological changes (i.e., behavioural and sometimes morphological and physiological traits that repeat annually) influence the wildlife gut microbiota. However, it remains largely unknown to what extent geographic variation could modulate the effect that phenology has on wildlife microbiota.

Relationship between Gonadal Steroids and Corticosterone during Blood Sampling in Saker Falcons [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Wildlife Diseases, 1998
Blood sampling in manually restrained or ketamine (15 mg/kg given intramuscularly) treated saker falcons (Falco cherrug) induced an increased concentration in plasma corticosterone. Elevated plasma progesterone, oestradiol 17 beta, and testosterone concentrations also were observed in some of these birds.

Role of intra‐individual variation in the detection of thresholds for DFI and for misclassification rates: A retrospective analysis of 14,775 SCSA® tests

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 13, Issue 7, Page 1732-1744, October 2025.
Abstract Background Sperm DNA damage is associated with reduced male fertility after natural conception and intrauterine insemination. However, the impact on in vitro fertilization (IVF) and especially intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatments is still unclear.

Does compliance with the global anticorruption regime require the use of artificial intelligence?

open access: yesAmerican Business Law Journal, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 145-164, Fall 2025.
Abstract Business firms constantly hear that artificial intelligence has changed the world and that they must either utilize artificial intelligence or fall behind. By extension, this would be true of regulatory compliance as well as operations. This article challenges the mantra of artificial intelligence as a ubiquitous agent of change.
