Eliciting a predatory response in the eastern corn snake (Pantherophis guttatus) using live and inanimate sensory stimuli: implications for managing invasive populations [PDF]

, 2014
North America's Eastern corn snake (Pantherophis guttatus) has been introduced to several islands throughout the Caribbean and Australasia where it poses a significant threat to native wildlife. Invasive snake control programs often involve trapping with

Bio‐Inspired Strategy for Radiation‐Based Thermal Management and Utilization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Biological organisms have evolved remarkable strategies to manage and exploit thermal radiation. This review explores bio‐inspired systems that mimic these adaptations—such as radiative cooling, thermal regulation, thermal insulation, water harvesting, infrared camouflage, and infrared detection—and highlights their application in thermal management ...

The Discovery of XY Sex Chromosomes in a \u3cem\u3eBoa\u3c/em\u3e and \u3cem\u3ePython\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

, 2017
For over 50 years, biologists have accepted that all extant snakes share the same ZW sex chromosomes derived from a common ancestor [1, 2, 3], with different species exhibiting sex chromosomes at varying stages of differentiation.

Near‐Freezing‐Temperature Golgi Neuronal Staining for X‐ray Imaging of Human Brain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A near‐freezing temperature staining strategy, combined with a mercury chloride‐based method, effectively preserves delicate neuronal structures in post‐mortem frozen human brain tissues by minimizing autolysis. This approach enables uniform labeling across centimeter‐scale slices and, when integrated with synchrotron‐based X‐ray microscopy, achieves ...

Microhabitat use by species of the genera Bothrops and Crotalus (Viperidae) in semi-extensive captivity

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2012
Many factors influence microhabitat including climate and the occurrence of predators, prey and suitable shelters. The influence of predators in a semi-extensive breeding system is minimized due to frequent monitoring of the area.
