Wild canids and felids differ in their reliance on reused travel routeways. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A
Diverse factors, including environmental features and cognitive processes, can drive animals’ movements and space use, with far-reaching implications. For example, repeated use of individual-level travel routeways (directionally constrained but imperfectly aligned routes), which results in spatial concentration of activity, can shape encounter-based ...

Wild canids, domestic dogs and their pathogens in Southeast Brazil: disease threats for canid conservation [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity and Conservation, 2010
Wild canids are under many pressures, including habitat loss, fragmentation and disease. The current lack of information on the status of wildlife health may hamper conservation efforts in Brazil. In this paper, we examined the prevalence of canine pathogens in 21 free-ranging wild canids, comprising 12 Cerdocyon thous (crab-eating fox), 7 Chrysocyon ...

Linkage Disequilibrium and Demographic History of Wild and Domestic Canids [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 2009
Abstract Assessing the extent of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in natural populations of a nonmodel species has been difficult due to the lack of available genomic markers. However, with advances in genotyping and genome sequencing, genomic characterization of natural populations has become feasible.
