Detection of herpesvirus DNA in Arctic foxes (Vulpes lagopus; syn. Alopex lagopus) with fatal encephalitis

Research in Veterinary Science, 2012
A captive breeding programme for the Fennoscandian Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus; syn. Alopex lagopus) failed due to fatal encephalitis. The aim of this study was to identify the causative agent. Viral nucleic acid was detected by PCR and in situ hybridization in the brain of affected foxes.

Interspecific Competition and the Geographical Distribution of Red and Arctic Foxes Vulpes Vulpes and Alopex lagopus

Oikos, 1992
The geographical distribution of red and arctic foxes differ. The hypothesis that this difference results directly from their relative adaptations to extreme cold is evaluated and dismissed. An alternative hypothesis is developed from considerations of body size and biogeographic effects on productivity. This suggests that the northern limit of the red

Polymorphism of prion protein gene in Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus)

Molecular Biology Reports, 2008
Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders of humans and certain other mammals. Prion protein gene (Prnp) is associated with susceptibility and species barrier to prion diseases. No natural and experimental prion diseases have been documented to date in Arctic fox.

RABIES AND THE ARCTIC FOX (VULPES LAGOPUS): A REVIEW

Journal of Wildlife Diseases
The Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) is the primary infection reservoir of Arctic rabies, the dynamics of which are poorly understood and subject to significant spatiotemporal variation. Although rabies presence has been documented in the region since the mid-19th century, there is currently no evidence of rabies impacting Arctic fox population size.

Retinal photoreceptor and ganglion cell types and topographies in the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) and Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus).

The Journal of comparative neurology, 2018
The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) is the carnivore with the widest distribution in the world. Not much is known about the visual system of these predominantly forest-dwelling animals. The closely related Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) lives in more open tundra habitats. In search for corresponding adaptations, we examined the photoreceptors and retinal ganglion
