Abstract:

To evaluate the efficiency of collective marking of riparian populations of rodents in the field, baits coated with either fluorescein (0.5 g/kg) or xylenol orange (2 g/kg), two vital fluorochromes of bones, were distributed on a 1.5 km riverbank. A system of traps was monitored for 20 consecutive days after marking. A total of 98 Myocastor coypus, 26 Ondatra zibethicus, 13 Arvicola sapidus, 3 Rattus norvegicus, 5 Apodemus sylvaticus, and 2 Microtus arvalis were trapped. Examination of thin cross sections of the mandibula and the incisor (I1) of all trapped rodents showed that specimens of all

Abstract In vivo selective survival advantage of transduced cells contributed to clinically beneficial levels of genetic correction of lymphocytes following X-SCID gene therapy. For most blood disorders there will be no constitutive selective advantage of the gene-corrected cells. Alternatively, a selectable gene incorporated into the vector may provide selective survival advantage. The P140K mutant of human O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT*) is a candidate mammalian selectable gene for hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) gene therapy.

Abstract:

On approaching slaughter weight it is common practice to weigh pigs and they are very often slap-marked prior to transport to the abattoir. Weighing involves handling and temporary isolation of the animal. Slap-marking involves hitting the animal, usually on the shoulder, with a series of needles covered in tattooing ink. Both weighing and slap-marking are potentially stressful. This study measured the behavioural and heart rate response of animals to these procedures as they occured on a commercialy run pig unit. These were compared to the responses of animals to weighing and an open-field te

AbstractIn the emerging field of animal studies, criticism turns to questions of ethics and animal rights by reading representations of nonhuman animals in philosophy and literature. A rhetoric of coming to terms often shapes such readings and points to a lack of satisfactory answers to two questions: why read nonhuman animals, and why now? These questions are crucial to animal studies but can only be answered by understanding this critical approach as an element of the anthropological discourse, fundamental to philosophy.

ABSTRACT Recently, gene delivery vectors based on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have been developed as an alternative mode of gene delivery. These vectors have a number of advantages, particularly in regard to the ability to infect cells which are not actively dividing. However, the use of vectors based on human immunodeficiency virus raises a number of issues, not the least of which is safety; therefore, further characterization of marking and gene expression in different hematopoietic lineages in primate animal model systems is desirable.

Abstract In wolves Canis lupus, scent marking plays an important role in territory defence. In Europe, studies on patterns of scent marking in wolves have mostly been conducted in mountains or primeval forests, but since these areas are characterised by low human activity, the impact of people on this behaviour has been neglected. We conducted a study that combined genetic methods with an analysis of the spatial distribution of wolf territory markings in lowland managed forests with high human activity. We found that scent markings are deposited by all members of wolf family groups. Wolves mos

ABSTRACT This study aimed to describe the main behaviors of white-lipped peccaries (Tayassu pecari) expressed in a semi-intensive production system in Brazil. The behavioral activities of two groups of peccaries allocated in two paddocks were assessed, totaling 17 adult animals and eventual pups in different developmental stages. The animals were visually observed using the ad libitum sampling and scan sample methods during the adaptation and experimental phases, respectively. The animals were evaluated in the morning, afternoon, and at night. The behavioral activities observed by ad libitum s

Abstract This article proposes a translation of the Kyūmokuryō, or Law on Stables and Pastures, which is included in the Yōrō Era Code (718). It is the oldest extant text to systematically address only bovine and equine species, illustrating how the state protected, promoted, and enhanced their well-being. The Law provides the knowledge required to manage stables and pastures, from the allocation of tasks and duties of staff to feeding modalities (quantity, quality, and times of foraging, consumption of grass, salt, etc.), from annual animal marking and recording procedures to the treatment of

Abstract:

Abstract Many animal species use scent marks such as feces, urine, and glandular secretions to find mates, advertise their reproductive status, and defend an exclusive territory. Scent marking may be particularly important during dispersal, when individuals emigrate from their natal territory searching for mates and a new territory to settle and reproduce. In this study, we investigated the scent-marking behavior of 30 dispersing female meerkats (Suricata suricatta) during the three consecutive stages of dispersal—emigration, transience, and settlement. We expected marking patterns to differ b

Abstract Recent studies in the NOD/SCID model have shown improved engraftment of SCID-repopulating cells and higher levels of engraftment in the secondary transplantation when cells were administered by intramarrow (IM) versus intravenous (IV) injection suggesting that direct injection into the marrow cavity may be beneficial for stem cell engraftment in a clinical setting. To study whether IM injection was feasible and would result in improved engraftment in a clinically relevant large animal model, we compared IM vs IV injection in our competitive repopulation assay in baboons.

This article analyses single-channel videos by the Turner Prize-winning artist Charlotte Prodger (b.1974), identifying in these works very particular forms of territoriality. As part of the broader drive towards accumulation found in Prodger’s autobiographical filmmaking, these videos continually collect new territories: characterized by a restless spatial mobility, they move repeatedly from location to location, amassing huge amounts of spatial information. This information is arranged in an ever-expanding matrix ‐ a grid-like structure that allows Prodger to bring the very different spaces s

Several non-invasive methods for assessing stress responses have been developed and validated for many animal species. Due to species-specific differences in metabolism and excretion of stress hormones, methods should be validated for each species. The aim of this study was to conduct a physiological validation of an 11-oxoaetiocholanolone enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for measuring faecal cortisol metabolites (FCMs) in male reindeer by administration of adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH; intramuscular, 0.25 mg per animal). A total of 317 samples were collected from eight male reindeer over a 44 h

Abstract:

The identity and amount of volatile substances in the feces, urine and feces scent-marked with urine (i.e., feces mixed with urine) of feral horses was determined by acid/steam distillation and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. The frequency of excretion and scent marking, as evaluated in the breeding and non-breeding seasons, showed clear evidence of seasonal behavioral differences. The concentration of each substance (fatty acids, alcohols, aldehydes, phenols, amines and alkanes) in the feces differed according to maturity, sex and stage in the reproductive process.

Abstract:

Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tags were subject to a series of experimental manipulations designed to simulate conditions operating during the course of trade in animals. Experiments were designed to determine the effects of tag-wand angle of orientation, various barriers between tags and wands and different wand-readers on the distance at which a reading could be made. The distances at which readings can be made are subject to influences by all three variables. The effect of tag-wand angle of orientation is likely to be trivial under most circumstances.

Abstract:

The mark–recapture technique paired with the Lincoln–Peterson index is a commonly used method of estimating the size of animal populations in ecological research. However, this technique is difficult to emulate in an educational setting due to the logistical constraints inherent to the process of capturing and marking live animals. As a result, most lessons on mark–recapture use captive animals or inanimate objects as the focal population. This approach may give students an inaccurate understanding of the potential applications and limitations of the mark–recapture technique. Here, we describe

The objectives of this study were to describe the scent-marking behavior of sympatric wolves and coyotes, and determine whether scent marking has an interspecific behavioral significance and, if so, whether it is involved in maintaining ecological separation of the two species. The hypotheses tested were that coyotes travelling within active wolf areas reduce their frequency of marking and avoid wolf scent marks, and that wolves react to sympatric coyotes as transgressing conspecifics, and increase their scent marking. Marking by the two species was similar, both canids using the same scent mo

Abstract:

Interactions with humans influence the behavior and physiology of other animals, and the response can vary with sex and familiarity. Dogs in animal shelters face challenging conditions and although contact with humans typically reduces stress and behaviors associated with stress, evidence indicates that shelter dogs react differently to unfamiliar men and women. Given that some aspects of canine scent-marking behavior change under fearful conditions, we examined whether sex of an unfamiliar walker would influence scent-marking behavior of 100 shelter dogs during leash walks.

Abstract:

Scents are one of the most common means of animal communication. Some animals use scent communication for many purposes including determining age and sex, marking their territories, and finding mates. Scent rubbing is a poorly understood way of marking in which animals rub their bodies against a variety of surfaces, many of which have intense odours. Individuals collapse their forelegs then push forward with their hind legs, rubbing their face, neck, and back onto the destination of the scent in the most well-known occurrences among carnivores. Most commonly, they put their own scent on the ob

We compared marked mice, unmarked cagemates, and control mice (n = 12–13/group) for 5 weeks, reapplying MP weekly. Treatment-blind observations following marking showed that EP and EP+A mice were allogroomed (p < 0.001) and sniffed (p < 0.001) by their cagemates more than MP and control mice were. EP+A

Abstract:

This paper aims to establish a different (transspecies) model of (animal) ethics by challenging one of the dominant paradigms of contemporary ethics (and aesthetics), namely the ethics of otherness. The ethics of otherness, striving for openness and the avoidance of appropriation, pushes the animal into representability and ineffability, marking it as “wholly other”, which consequently leads to the impossibility of any kind of communication and mutual understanding, even self-understanding. It is in this context that the problem of anthropomorphism arises, a problem that is crucially linked to
