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.

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract An understanding of habitat use and levels of active behaviour is foundational to wildlife behaviour, ecology, conservation and management. These variables are commonly measured by tracking individuals in space and time using biologging. In principle, camera‐trap data also contain information about both activity level and habitat use; however,

, 2023 The scientific name of the wild boar is Sus scrofa. Wild boars can be found in many parts of the world including Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America. They have also been introduced to other parts of the world such as Australia, New Zealand, and some islands in the Pacific.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.

Detection of the Japanese encephalitis virus in wild boars and comparison of blood profiles between wild boars and domestic pigs in Selangor, Malaysia [PDF]
, 2012 The Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) RNA was detected in mosquito vectors in Selangor, Malaysia almost two decades ago. However, the JEV status in wild boars, a potential reservoir, has yet to be investigated.

Assessing Spatiotemporal Side Effects of Diversionary Feeding on Mesopredators
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We tested whether diversionary feeding alters the space use, aggregation, or activity patterns of mesopredators using a treatment‐control design with camera traps. Although both species frequently used feeding stations, diversionary feeding did not significantly affect their spatial distribution, aggregation, or temporal behaviour.

Scientific ReportsTargeted 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 ...

Andrology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Asthenozoospermia is a significant contributing factor to male infertility. Accumulating evidence indicates that impaired sperm motility is closely linked to dysregulated microRNA expression during spermatogenesis. Seminal plasma exosomes are enriched with diverse microRNAs, which play pivotal roles in modulating sperm motility, the

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations
Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.
