Population genetic history of the British roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) and its implications for diversity and fitness
… study examined post glacial recolonisation by UK roe. Previous studies established three main roe deer lineages exist across Europe: a western (Iberian Peninsula), an eastern (Balkan region) and a central lineage (which spans across central Europe). It was unknown which group British roe deer …

Zum Vorkommen Transmissibler Spongiformer Enzephalopathien und bakterieller ZNS-Infektionen beim Reh-, Rot- und Gamswild in Bayern
… Encephalopathies and bacterial CNS infections in roe deer, red deer and chamois in Bavaria Brain samples of 849 wild ruminants (654 roe deer, 189 red deer and 6 chamois) from Bavaria were examined for the occurrence of TSE and encephalopathies caused by bacteria, respectively. For this, the …

ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINANTS IN FARM AND WILD ANIMALS
… of PFASs and trace elements in animals, using roe deer, wild boar, bovine and swine as bioindicators to assess environmental contamination. The research employed both targeted and non-targeted analytical approaches, including liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, to identify and …

Managing deer: attractants, repellents, invasion modelling and impact assessment
Deer play an important role in many ecosystem processes and have been recognised as keystone species, but increasing numbers and expanding ranges of both native and introduced deer worldwide, including the British Isles, is contributing to negative ecological impacts on natural systems, economic …

Modelling the impact of Phytophthora austrocedri on UK populations of native juniper (Juniperus communis s. l.)
… 1km, potentially mediated by livestock and deer. By compiling a novel dataset, I revealed larger, more frequent supplementary juniper planting events increased the likelihood of P. austrocedri presence. Stakeholders managing, monitoring, and growing juniper then participated in a survey …

Bone and tooth microstructure in extinct and extant mammals and implications for growth and life history evolution, with an emphasis on cervids as a case study
… Sinomegaceros yabei, the extinct Japanese giant deer from the Late Pleistocene, is characterised by high growth rates. Bone histological and skeletochronological (based on growth mark analysis) traits of sampled island mammals in comparison to mainland relatives suggest the presence of various …
