Development of short-target primers for species identification in biological studies of Carnivora. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 Abstract Noninvasive genetic sampling greatly facilitates studies on the genetics, ecology, and conservation of threatened species. Species identification is often a prerequisite for noninvasive sampling‐based biological studies. Due to the low quantity and quality of genomic DNA from noninvasive samples, high‐performance short‐target PCR primers are ...

Comparative Analysis of Gut Microbiota Among Captive Waterbird Species: Effects of Diet and Environmental Factors. [PDF]
Vet Med SciThis study reveals that diet drives gut microbiota differences in captive waterbirds (bar‐headed goose, ruddy shelduck, black‐necked crane), with protein‐rich diets shaping distinct microbial communities. Artificial lakes enhance microbial diversity compared to enclosures, offering insights for improving captive waterbird health.

Through the eyes of the Andean bear: Camera collar insights into the life of a threatened South American Ursid. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study used a camera‐equipped GPS collar on a male Andean bear in southeastern Peru, revealing rare behaviors like courtship, novel diets, and geophagy. These findings from the Kosñipata Valley provide valuable insights into the poorly understood ecology of Andean bears and suggest many areas for further research.
