Genetic Determination of Maternal Behaviour in Pigs

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In sows, maternal behaviour is a commercially important trait which affects sow and piglet welfare and the quality and safety of human‐animal interactions, especially if free farrowing of sows without crates is in place. The aim of this study was to evaluate maternal behaviour and to estimate its quantitative genetic parameters in Swiss ...

Identification of predilection sites for wild boar carcass search based on spatial analysis of Latvian ASF surveillance data

Scientific Reports
Targeted search for wild boar carcasses is essential for successful control of African swine fever (ASF) in wild boar populations. To examine whether landscape conditions influence the probability of finding ASF-positive carcasses, this study analyzed ...

Occurrence and distribution of sarcoptic mange in wild Neotropical canids

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Sarcoptic mange affects most Neotropical canid species across multiple countries. It represents a widespread yet largely overlooked conservation threat with potential for cross‐species transmission. Coordinated monitoring and management efforts are needed to understand and mitigate its impacts. Abstract Sarcoptic mange, a contagious skin disease caused

Geographical distribution of Hyalomma marginatum Koch, 1844 in northwestern Spain from 2019 to 2024: A one health approach

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
This study confirms the presence of the tick Hyalomma marginatum Koch, 1844, a known vector of the Crimean‐Congo hemorrhagic fever virus at Galicia. Most ticks were encountered on humans and livestock, with numbers rising between 2019 and 2024, especially during spring and in warm‐summer Mediterranean southwest areas of the studied region.

Integrating natural baselines into ecosystem restoration: scaling herbivore targets for European landscapes

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Herbivore‐mediated ecosystem processes are fundamental to biodiversity, yet have been greatly diminished by megafauna extinctions and replacement of wild herbivores by managed livestock. With increasing restoration ambitions—including the United Nations' (UN) Decade on Ecosystem Restoration and the European Union (EU) Nature ...

Soil inoculation enhances early‐phase reintroduction success in two rare plant species

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Reintroduction for conservation is an important measure to restore populations of vulnerable plant species. However, reintroduction success rates are relatively low. Inoculating reintroduced plants with facilitative microorganisms from native populations may enhance their performance.
