Lenticular Autofluorescence in Normal Tree Shrews
Ophthalmic Research, 1996 Lenticular autofluorescence was measured in vivo in 25 normal tree shrews using a fluorophotometer with a specially designed small animal adapter to assess the usefulness of this model of lens pathology. The average variability in the lenticular autofluorescence measurements was 8.7%.

The accelerating influence of humans on mammalian macroecological patterns over the late Quaternary [PDF]
, 2019 The transition of hominins to a largely meat-based diet ~1.8 million years ago led to the exploitation of other mammals for food and resources. As hominins, particularly archaic and modern humans, became increasingly abundant and dispersed across the ...

The formation and extinction of fear memory in tree shrews [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2015 Fear is an emotion that is well-studied due to its importance for animal survival. Experimental animals, such as rats and mice, have been widely used to model fear. However, higher animals such as nonhuman primates have rarely been used to study fear due to ethical issues and high costs.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...
