Improving individual identification of wolves (Canis lupus) using the fundamental frequency and amplitude of their howls: a new survey method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Many bioacoustic studies have been able to identify individual mammals from variations in the fundamental frequency (F0) of their vocalizations. Other characteristics of vocalization which encode individuality, such as amplitude, are less frequently used

Modulus‐Switchable Miniature Robots for Biomedical Applications: A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Materials, robot designs, proof‐of‐concept functions, and biomedical applications of modulus‐switchable miniature robots. Miniature soft robots have shown great potential in biomedical applications due to their excellent controllability and suitable mechanical properties in biological environments.

Use of satellite images for broad-scale modelling of conservation areas for wolves in the Carpathian Mountains, central Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This study analysed the spatial structure of the Carpathian Mountains, in Central Europe, considering it a unit that extends across national boundaries, and assessing the suitability of areas were wolves could be conserved.

A Multidirectional Textile Interface for Remote Control Using Dynamic Area‐Based Capacitance Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Here, we present a textile, wearable capacitive interface enabling multidirectional remote control by dynamically modulating electrode overlap and spacing via a freely gliding upper electrode. A forearm‐mounted prototype drives robotic and media tasks with 12–15 ms latency, maintains < 0.8% drift after 500 cycles, and remains stably functional at 90 ...

Are dark-eyed dogs favoured by humans? Domestication as a potential driver of iris colour difference between dogs and wolves

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
Comparative studies have shown that the eye morphology of primates has been shaped by a variety of selection pressures (e.g. communication, environmental factors).

Tolerance between wolves and golden jackals in India [PDF]

open access: yes
Wolves (Canis lupus) coexist with several “subordinate”carnivores across its distribution range. The influence of wolves on these species, determining their distribution,abundance and behavior has been discussed extensively (Newsome et al., 2017; Prugh &

Wolves and Coyotes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This chapter focuses on an intriguing aspect of the relationship of humans with wolves in North America and parts of eastern Siberia—that wolves are considered “creator” figures, suggesting that they played an important role in the way humans conceived ...

A Versatile‐Designable Framework for Active and Programmable Shape‐Morphing Soft Matter Systems: From Inverse Design to Closed‐Loop Control

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A versatile framework integrates addressable electrothermal actuation and strain‐constraint mechanisms to construct programmable shape‐morphing soft matter systems. By combining an analytical inverse design strategy for high‐fidelity 3D surface reconstruction with deep learning‐based closed‐loop control, this approach enables zero‐energy shape locking,

Differences in greeting behaviour towards humans with varying levels of familiarity in hand-reared wolves (Canis lupus) [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
Socialized wolves' relationship with humans is a much debated, but important question in light of dog domestication. Earlier findings reported no attachment to the caretaker at four months of age in a Strange Situation Test, while recently attachment to ...
