Occurrence and distribution of sarcoptic mange in wild Neotropical canids
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

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.

Productive parameters in South American camelids
The objective of this study wasto determine the productive parameters in South American camelids. The study was carried out in the Quimsachata camelid germplasm bank, located in the department of Puno, Peru. The monthly alpacas and llamas counting sheets for the 2014-2018 period were used. The total annual average capital

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