Ecosystem dynamics are shaped by interacting top‐down and bottom‐up processes, yet their relative importance may vary through time following disturbances such as disease outbreaks and changes in apex predator communities. Using a 52‐year time series in south‐central Sweden, we examined how disease, apex predators, and prey availability jointly impact a

Abstract The growing incidence of sarcoptic mange in American black bears (Ursus americanus) has become a concern for wildlife managers in the eastern United States. Inconsistency in the use of single and multi‐dose treatment approaches makes it difficult to evaluate their effects on post‐release outcomes of mange‐rehabilitated bears, which remain ...

Clinical Case and Follow‐Up of Babesia banethi Infection in a Red Fox
A naturally occurring Babesia banethi infection in a sick red fox was followed up for more than one year through cytology, haematobiochemical profiles and molecular analyses. Imidocarb treatment resulted in temporary clinical improvement and later relapse, whereas atovaquone/proguanil combined with azithromycin led to clinical recovery and parasite ...

Ectoparasite infestation was detected in 39.13% of 138 examined dogs in Isfahan, Iran. Ticks were the most prevalent (57.4%), followed by mites (25.9%), fleas (11.1%) and lice (5.6%). Infestation rates showed significant differences according to sex and age (p < 0.05), with the highest prevalence observed in spring.
