Increasing weaning age of piglets from 4 to 7 weeks reduces stress, increases post-weaning feed intake but does not improve intestinal functionality [PDF]
This study tested the hypothesis that late weaning and the availability of creep feed during the suckling period compared with early weaning, improves feed intake, decreases stress and improves the integrity of the intestinal tract.

Covariation in the Craniocervical Junction of Carnivora
The craniocervical junction in mammals is a biomechanically unique region that involves the occiput and two specialized vertebrae: the ring‐shaped atlas (CV1) and the axis (CV2) with its peculiar odontoid process (Dens). In Carnivora, the present study indicates that quantitative variation in CV1 morphology reflects a functional signal, while CV2 ...

Lathyrism and the half-life of collagen
Maturation of collagen in the periodontal ligament has often been designated as the cause of tooth eruption. The fact that collagen has a high turnover rate provided some sort of proof of this hypothesis.
