Immunohistochemistry of Parasitic Subepidermal Vesiculobullous Disease in American Badgers ( Taxidea Taxus ) [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 1994 Some populations of free-ranging American badgers (Taxidea taxus) develop a distinctive seasonal dermatitis due to the subcutaneous filariid Filaria taxideae. Subepidermal vesicles that contain filarial ova develop in thinly haired skin of the inguinal area, proximal thigh, and ventral abdomen.

Metabolic Adaptations to Prolonged Food Deprivation by the American Badger Taxidea taxus [PDF]
Physiological Zoology, 1981 Energy expenditures for food processing, maintenance, and activity requirements were determined in the laboratory on the American badger, Taxidea taxus, both with ad lib. food and starved for 7, 20, and 30 days. Body weight decreased at about 76 g per day, resulting in a respiratory quotient (RQ) of 0.83 after 30 days of starvation. Energy requirements

What's in a Name? Not All Mesopredators Are Mesocarnivores. [PDF]
Ecol EvolEcological terms like mesopredator and mesocarnivore have distinct meanings, the former denoting trophic rank, the latter diet composition, yet are frequently conflated, leading to conceptual ambiguity. We argue for returning to original definitions and advocate for context‐sensitive, precise language to improve clarity and accuracy in scientific ...

Genomic Insights Into the Body Size Evolution in Mustelidae (Mammalia: Carnivora). [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe comparative genomic analysis of 19 mustelid species provides insights into the genetic basis of body size evolution, identifying candidate genes and pathways under selection that underlie the remarkable morphological diversity in Mustelidae. ABSTRACT The extraordinary body size diversity within Mustelidae makes this carnivoran family an exceptional

Morphology and function of pinniped necks: The long and short of it. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract Terrestrial vertebrates from at least 30 distinct lineages in both extinct and extant clades have returned to aquatic environments. With these transitions came numerous morphological adaptations to accommodate life in water. Relatively little attention has been paid to the cervical region when tracking this transition.
