Importance of connectivity for carnivore richness and occupancy in fragmented biodiversity hotspots. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Structural connectivity affects wildlife movement between habitat patches, contributing to the persistence of wildlife populations and their resilience to human‐induced and environmental changes. However, its importance to wildlife population persistence remains unclear, particularly in fragmented landscapes, where there are additional co ...

Characterization of antimicrobial resistance profiles in Escherichia coli isolated from captive mammals in Ecuador. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Among 90 E. coli isolates from 70 mammals, significant resistance was found to ampicillin (52.22%), ceftriaxone (42.22%) and cefuroxime (42.22%), with 27.78% being ESBL‐producing. Notably, 66.67% of isolates showed resistance to at least one antibiotic, and 35.56% exhibited multiresistant phenotypes.

Epigenetic Clock in Bears: A Simple Cost-Effective Blood DNA Methylation-Based Age Estimation Method Applicable to Multiple Bear Species. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Age is an essential factor to understand the life history and demographic parameters of wildlife. In this study, we built a common epigenetic clock model for multiple bear species, including brown, Asian black, polar, sun, and Andean bears. The model will contribute to ecological research, conservation, and management of bear species.

Anesthetic protocol using propofol and isoflurane in spectacled bear (Tremarctos ornatus)

Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Research and Animal Science, 2023
The management of wild animals generally requires chemical containment with the use of sedatives, tranquilizers, general anesthetics or dissociative drugs. The spectacled bear (Tremarctos ornatus) is the only member of the family Ursidae characteristic of South America. There are few reports on the main anesthetic protocols used in this specie. The aim
