Habitat Features, Coyotes, and Humans Drive Diel Activity Variation Among Sympatric Mammals
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We found that multiple mammal species show considerable variation in diel activity in response to several factors, with biotic variables (habitat features and the presence of coyotes Canis latrans) having the strongest overall effects. Our results have important implications for trophic dynamics. Future studies will need to account for these underlying

The study of the diet of the fox Vulpes vulpes / Lo studio della dieta della volpe Vulpes vulpes
Hystrix - the Italian Journal of Mammalogy, 1991 Abstract A critical review of the study methods on the fox diet is reported. Severa1 problems exist about the identification of the food remains in scats, stomachs, intestine, and about the estimate of the ingested bulk of different foods. In order to interpretate correctly the use of food categories of the diet, the assessment of the availability and

A macroanatomical study of the arcus aortae in the fox (Vulpes vulpes)
TURKISH JOURNAL OF VETERINARY AND ANIMAL SCIENCES, 2013 1-Hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate was prepared in situ and used as extractant in dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction. Ultra-trace amounts of Pd(II) could be accurately determined by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) and spectrophotometry after extraction by the formed micro-droplets of the ionic liquid phase.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

Host Phylogeny and Feeding Habit Jointly Govern Mammalian Gut Microbiota Composition
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Herbivores showed higher alpha diversity than carnivores/omnivores, while omnivores had the highest beta diversity. Host phylogeny influenced gut microbiota more strongly in herbivores/omnivores, with phylogenetic distance correlating to microbiota dissimilarity.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Early‐life traits significantly influence sexual segregation patterns and phenotypic quality in male fallow deer. Males in better condition and those more risk‐prone left natal groups earlier with fewer returns to natal groups. However, males with frequent excursions back to natal groups compensated for initial body condition disadvantages.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Vegetation cover promotes rodent activity and acorn dispersal, while wild boars exert a direct negative effect on mice. Conversely, deer and predators displayed no significant impact on rodent behavior. These results identify wild boars as the main disruptors of rodent‐mediated forest regeneration.
