Occurrence and distribution of sarcoptic mange in wild Neotropical canids

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Sarcoptic mange affects most Neotropical canid species across multiple countries. It represents a widespread yet largely overlooked conservation threat with potential for cross‐species transmission. Coordinated monitoring and management efforts are needed to understand and mitigate its impacts. Abstract Sarcoptic mange, a contagious skin disease caused

Assessing soil and native high Andean grassland quality under grazing: A case study from the wet Puna of Peru

Grassland Science, Volume 72, Issue 3, Page 163-174, July 2026.
Abstract High Andean grasslands are vulnerable to changes in their nutritional quality and carbon sequestration capacity, especially in grazing systems. This study evaluated soil quality and native grasses by measuring carbon, physicochemical parameters, and the nutritional quality of predominant species in the wet Puna of Junín, Peru.

Survey on shedding of selected pathogenic, zoonotic or antimicrobial resistant bacteria by South American camelids in Central Germany

Berliner und Münchener Tierärztliche Wochenschrift, 2022
South American camelids (SAC) are increasingly popular in Germany. Although frequently in close contact to livestock and humans, data on the prevalence of epizootic and zoonotic bacteria and of bacteria exhibiting antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in SAC is

Wild Ruminants as a Natural Source of Methane: A Global Gridded Emissions Estimate

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas whose global budget remains uncertain due to incomplete and uncertain constraints on several natural and anthropogenic sources. While livestock dominate animal‐derived methane emissions, emissions from wild animals—particularly ruminants—represent a persistent but under‐quantified component of the ...

Evaluation of a rapid method for measuring lactate in the venous blood of ruminants

Veterinary Record, Volume 198, Issue 11, Page e503-e507, 30 May/6 June 2026.
Abstract Background In cattle and small ruminants, blood lactate can predict recovery and survival in various diseases. Increased lactate concentration is associated with an unfavourable‐to‐poor prognosis. Different mobile rapid lactate measurement devices have been explored in different animal species.

Production, Preservation, and Transfer of South American Camelid Embryos [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2017
La présente revue résume les progrès réalisés dans le domaine de la production in vitro et in vivo d'embryons de camélidés d'Amérique du Sud. Les deux méthodes nécessitent une superstimulation ovarienne (avec FSH et eCG) pour obtenir des ovulations multiples (production d'embryons in vivo) ou pour induire la croissance folliculaire pour la collecte d ...
