Towards biocultural approaches to environmental education—Evidence from Madagascar

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This research illustrates how biocultural approaches can facilitate the decolonisation of environmental education projects across Madagascar. Abstract Environmental education projects are commonly used by conservation organizations to improve the relations between humans and nature.

The performance of Orma Boran and Maasai Zebu crossbreeds in a trypanosomosis endemic area of Nguruman, south western Kenya

open access: yesOnderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2005
Studies on the trypanotolerance of Orma Boran X Maasai Zebu (Orma Zebu) crossbred cattle (F1 progeny) and pure-bred Maasai Zebu contemporaries were carried out in Nguruman, south western Kenya. The two groups were monitored from birth for a period of 2

Tolerance for jaguars among ranching communities in the Colombian Llanos

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Livestock protection measures are often implemented with the desired outcome of reducing retaliatory killings. We studied drivers of retaliatory killings in four communities in the Colombian Llanos and evaluated whether an electric fencing intervention would improve tolerance for jaguars.

Genetic Associations of Functional Longevity With Sexual Precocity and Growth Traits in Nellore Beef Cattle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Functional longevity (FL) is a complex trait that integrates many attributes directly contributing to the successful retention and productivity of a cow within the herd. Consequently, improving FL in beef cattle increases herd profitability. This study aimed to estimate the genetic associations between two alternative FL definitions and traits

Libido and serving skills of Zebu cattle bulls

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2021
The goal of this study was to evaluate the rejection rates of Zebu bulls during behavioral assessment (libido and serving ability) and the importance of this step in bull breeding soundness evaluation (BBSE). A total of 1,534 bulls reared in the state of

Genetic Evaluation for Functional Longevity in Nellore Cattle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stayability (STAY) presents limitations in capturing genetic variability among animals with varying calving records up to 76 months of age. Furthermore, because STAY is measured late in life (typically at 6 years of age), it inherently prolongs generation intervals.

Genetic and Phenotypic Correlations Among Growth, Disease Occurrence, and Reproductive Performance From Calf to Heifer in Girolando Dairy Cattle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Girolando breed, a cross between Holstein (Bos taurus) and Gir (Bos indicus), is the primary choice for dairy production in Brazilian tropical regions, as it combines high productive potential with adaptation to the tropical environment.

Diet‐Related Differences Predominate Over Breed‐Associated Differences in Hepatic Lipid Metabolism, Antioxidant Vitamins and Lipid Quality Indices Among Beef Cattle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how nutritional management and genetic background influence hepatic metabolism is important for improving the nutritional quality of bovine products in tropical production systems. This study evaluated breed‐associated differences under a common dietary regimen and diet‐related differences within the Nelore breed with respect to ...
