Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.This study investigated how variations in the shape of the astragalus affect tarsal joint behavior, using CT scans. In artiodactyls with a double‐pulley astragalus, the calcaneus shifted plantarly during plantarflexion. This suggests the movement increases hindlimb functional length and contributes to enhanced running speed.

The variability of giraffe skull morphology
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.What does giraffe skull shape tell us about their development and evolution? Abstract Giraffe (Giraffa spp.) are among the most unique and charismatic extant animals, largely due to their distinct morphology. The evolutionary and developmental origin of ossicones is a key factor in giraffid biology, yet other features building their characteristic head

How do forelimb long bones adapt in rhinoceroses? An in‐depth examination of their microanatomy
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Here, we study the bone structure in the forelimb long bones of the five extant species of rhinoceroses. By combining traditional description of virtual sections made on the bones (A) with in‐depth cartographies of the variation of bone compactness and anisotropy (B), we show how bone tissue can adapt to extreme forces and constraints in the second ...

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1235-1254, June 2026.ABSTRACT Tool use research has long made the distinction between tool using that is considered learned and flexible, and that which appears to be instinctive and stereotyped. However, animals with an inherited tool use specialisation can exhibit flexibility, while tool use that is spontaneously innovated can be limited in its expression and facilitated

Attitudes of local residents towards tourism development in Vrbas [PDF]
TIMS. Acta, 2019 Tourism, as a branch of industry, has a major impact on the environment and local community. In addition to the positive, economic effects, the development of tourism carries many consequences to the environment and society. The attitudes of the local population towards the impact of tourism have long been the subject of many studies.

ROTATION IN THE PLEIADES WITH K2. I. DATA AND FIRST RESULTS [PDF]
, 2016 Young (125 Myr), populous (>1000 members), and relatively nearby, the Pleiades has provided an anchor for stellar angular momentum models for both younger and older stars. We used K2 to explore the distribution of rotation periods in the Pleiades.
