You Scratch My Back: White‐Footed Mouse (Peromyscus leucopus) Sibling Pairs Engage in Allogrooming in Response to Tick Burdens

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
This study investigated whether blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis) infestation influences allogrooming behavior in sibling pairs of white‐footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus). Using laboratory‐reared siblings housed in pairs, we compared allogrooming frequency and cumulative duration between tick‐infested and non‐infested groups across both sexes ...

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Generics favor stability

Mind &Language, EarlyView.
Humans seek to predict, explain, and control their environments. Generalizations—like those expressed by “children like candy” and “cigarettes cause cancer”—provide one resource to facilitate these tasks. We develop a proposal tying the acceptability judgments of generics to the psychological functions of generalizations.

High prevalence of a host‐associated Anaplasma lineage in wild coatis (Nasua nasua) from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Anaplasma sp. DNA was detected in 47.9% of free‐ranging coatis (Nasua nasua) sampled in Iguaçu National Park, southern Brazil. Molecular analyses revealed a genetically distinct Anaplasma lineage infecting coatis, differing from Anaplasma strains detected in associated tick populations.

Come together: Data sharing to support one health responses to vector‐borne disease threats

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
A One Health framework integrating diverse data across human, animal and environmental sectors is essential for effective surveillance and response is vital for responding to vector‐borne disease risks. Communities adopting global data standards, depositing data in shared repositories, and responsible data use can significantly improve VBD data ...

Tick‐borne diseases in subtropical dairy farming: The role of calf rearing strategies in antibody and antigen prevalence Enfermedades Transmitidas por Garrapatas en la Ganadería Lechera subtropical: El Papel de las Estrategias de Crianza de Terneros en la Prevalencia de Anticuerpos y Antígenos

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Tropical farmers try to adapt calf‐rearing systems to temperate dairy industry standards. Calves in tick‐infested areas develop stronger immunity to TBD under controlled exposure to ticks. Early tick exposure promotes sustainable management, balancing tick infestation and developing TBD immunity.
