Short‐term performance responses of an intertidal fish to sedimentation and warming

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change is altering coastal ecosystems by causing environmental fluctuations, such as increases in temperature and turbidity, which pose major implications for fish physiology and behaviour. Increases in temperature affect fish food intake, swimming capacity and oxygen delivery, while increases in turbidity can impair or enhance prey ...

Morphological study of the supratrochlear foramen in Canis lupus ssp.

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The supratrochlear foramen (STF) is a common anatomical feature in the humeri of dogs and wolves. This study shows that the STF exhibits a consistent shape and position in dogs and wolves, suggesting a common morphological pattern; however, it was less frequent in smaller dog humeri, and its size correlated with humeral dimensions, suggesting that ...

The variability of giraffe skull morphology

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
What does giraffe skull shape tell us about their development and evolution? Abstract Giraffe (Giraffa spp.) are among the most unique and charismatic extant animals, largely due to their distinct morphology. The evolutionary and developmental origin of ossicones is a key factor in giraffid biology, yet other features building their characteristic head

The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

Subsistence hunting shapes the spatial variation of jaguar densities in community‐managed forests

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Jaguars and people can coexist in community‐managed forests, but distance matters. In Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve, jaguar numbers increased markedly in areas harder to reach on foot, yet jaguars were still found near communities, showing that responsibly managed forests can support jaguar populations while allowing people to maintain traditional

Influence of human disturbance on the activity patterns and spatiotemporal interactions of wolves and their prey in an Italian stronghold

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
The intensification of human activities exerts an influence on animal behaviour, resulting in noticeable shifts in species distributions, movements, and activity patterns. Differential responses among sympatric species, influenced by human disturbance, have the potential to alter species interactions, such as predator‐prey relationships.

Occurrence and distribution of sarcoptic mange in wild Neotropical canids

open access: yesMedical 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

Ultrasonographic and Endoscopic Findings of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma With Duodenal Invasion in a Brown Bear (Ursus arctos)

open access: yesVeterinary Radiology &Ultrasound, Volume 67, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This report describes a 25‐year‐old, intact male brown bear (Ursus arctos) presenting with weight loss, diarrhea, melena, apathy, and a 12% hematocrit. Ultrasound showed proximal duodenal wall thickening with submucosal cysts and a large, heterogeneous, highly vascularized mass in the descending duodenum, containing small gas pockets and ...

Diversity Patterns of Domestic Herbivore Viruses in China Reveal Transmission Dynamics with Disease Management Implications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
This study performs pan‐viromic profiling of 14,529 samples from 5,710 domestic herbivores across five Chinese provinces, establishing the DhCN‐Virome (1,085,360 viral metagenomes). It reveals species/sample‐specific viromic signatures and cross‐species transmission dynamics, aiding unified disease control.

Transforming Human–Manatee Relations: Socio‐Ecological Drivers of Conflict and Coexistence in Lake Ossa, Cameroon

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquatic ecosystems worldwide face increasing human–wildlife conflicts as fishing activities overlap with critical habitats for vulnerable species. Human–wildlife interactions in artisanal fisheries exemplify socio‐ecological systems that necessitate adaptive management approaches, integrating ecological and social dimensions.
