Ecological Analysis of the Helminth Community and Its Relationship with the Physiological State in the Montane Water Vole, Arvicola scherman (Shaw, 1801), in NW Spain

open access: yesAnimals
The montane water vole, Arvicola scherman, is a fossorial rodent that lives underground in grasslands, pastures and meadows in the mountain ranges of southwestern and central Europe.

Presence of Salmonella and Campylobacter spp. in Wild Small Mammals on Organic Farms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The presence of Salmonella and Campylobacter spp. in rodents and insectivores (n 282) was investigated on organic farms. Infections were encountered in house mice (8 of 83 Campylobacter positive and 1 of 83 Salmonella sp.

Reviewing the effects of food provisioning on wildlife immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
While urban expansion increasingly encroaches on natural habitats, many wildlife species capitalize on anthropogenic food resources, which have the potential to both positively and negatively influence their responses to infection.

The Dentate Gyrus Grows Throughout Life Despite Turnover of Developmentally‐Born Neurons

open access: yesHippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Adult‐born hippocampal neurons are highly plastic but there remains uncertainty about the magnitude of neurogenesis and its long‐term functional consequences. Theoretical predictions indicate that adult neurogenesis should lead to substantial growth of the dentate gyrus (DG) granule cell population.

Raptors benefit from biosolids applications on rangelands

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology, 2023
Globally, many grasslands have been lost or degraded via settlement, conversion to agriculture, or use as pasture. These losses have damaged the ability of migratory and nomadic birds of prey to find suitable breeding territories.

Diet composition of red fox during rearing in a moor: a case study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The diet of red fox (Vulpes vulpes) cubs living in a moor in Hungary was studied by scat analysis (n = 77) during the rearing period. The main food source of foxes consisted of small mammals (preferred Microtus voles) which was supplemented with brown ...

Tree‐based modelling of ecosystem services and climate‐adaptive silviculture strategies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our years‐long collaboration contributed to a robust scientific basis for the next TVSF management plan, which is currently under development. More broadly, our findings demonstrate the adaptive capacity of communities in sparsely managed climate vulnerable forests is likely insufficient to offset declines in desired ecosystem services.

Signatures of Radiation‐Induced Stress and Putative Selection on Immune Targets in Chornobyl Wolves

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Investigating the physiological and evolutionary consequences of contaminant exposure in wild populations is critical for understanding long‐term ecological impacts of anthropogenic change. However, how and why species persist, even thrive, in highly contaminated regions in the absence of humans remains a topic of much debate.

The Western Palaeartic evolution of the water vole, Arvicola

open access: yes, 2011
The water vole is common in Middle and Late Pleistocene temperate Palaearctic faunas. It is widely used in biostratigraphy because of temporal trends in the size, shape and structure of the first lower molar (m1). However, geographic variation in the evolutionary development of the m1 has restricted the precision and accuracy of age-estimations.
