Understanding nuanced preferences for carnivore conservation: To know them is not always to love them

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2022
In a study of more than 3000 participants from nine countries, we explored peoples’ preferences for the conservation of two groups of species that frequently interact with humans: large carnivores (n = 29 species in the order Carnivora with average adult

Serologic evidence of Leishmania infection in free-ranging wild and domestic canids around a Brazilian National Park

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2006
Transmission of disease between wildlife, domestic animals, and humans is of great concern to conservation issues and public health. Here we report on the prevalence of anti-Leishmania sp.

Morphological and molecular analyses of two Taenia species in wild canids in northern Iran [PDF]

open access: yesThe Iranian Journal of Veterinary Science and Technology
Wild canids play a significant role in dissemination of parasitic helminth ova and may serve as a potential source of infection in humans and animals. Therefore, monitoring the helminth fauna of these species is essential for both veterinary and public ...

What Makes a Dog? Stable Isotope Analysis and Human-canid Relationships at Arroyo Hondo Pueblo

open access: yesOpen Quaternary, 2018
Domesticated animals in the prehispanic American Southwest/Mexican Northwest functioned in many roles, but these roles seem to have varied across time and space.

Attomolar Detection of HIV‐1 With Label‐Free RCA‐rCRISPR on Smartphone

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A new diagnostic strategy integrating rolling circle amplification (RCA) with a plasmid reporter–based ratiometric CRISPR (rCRISPR) system was developed to detect unfragmented HIV genomes with single‐digit attomolar sensitivity. The method quantifies targets using the plasmid relaxation ratio and employs a smartphone‐based mini‐gel device to enable ...

Lack of evidence of paratuberculosis in wild canids from Southwestern Europe [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Wildlife Research, 2011
Wild carnivores are at the top of the trophic chain. They are predators and carrion consumers, and thus, prone to come in contact with disease agents contaminating the environment or infecting live or dead animals. We hypothesized that wild canids could be used as sentinels for the detection of regions with higher Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis ...

The Interplay of Curvature, Geometry, and Topology Shapes Tissue Organisation in Epithelial Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Purely geometric 3D Voronoi models predict the organisation of epithelial shells. The interplay of curvature, geometry, and topology enriches the number of pentagons in shells with lower number of cells. Small MDCK cysts and Mouse embryos match the top polygonal configurations in a compactness‐based ranking derived from the Voronoi model. In conclusion,

TAXONOMIC STATUS OF WILD CANIDS IN THE SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
In the last 20 years (especially during the last decade), reports of coyote-like wild canids have increased steadily in the southeastern United States. These canids have apparently become well established in many parts of the Southeast.

Potential Sources of High Frequency and Biphonic Vocalization in the Dhole (Cuon alpinus). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Biphonation, i.e. two independent fundamental frequencies in a call spectrum, is a prominent feature of vocal activity in dog-like canids. Dog-like canids can produce a low (f0) and a high (g0) fundamental frequency simultaneously.
