• First in situ application of a non-invasive sampling approach to assess pesticide effects on amphibian enzymatic activities · 2026

  Résumé de la publication : Amphibians are particularly vulnerable to pesticide exposures, according to numerous laboratory and field studies. Enzymatic activities in biological tissues and body condition are usually proposed as relevant biomarkers for studying the effects of pesticides on these organisms, especially in agricultural context. Nevertheless,…

• Microanatomical features of bovids long bones: What are the effects of mass and habitat? · 2026

  Résumé de la publication : Bovids are a valuable group for studying limb long bone adaptations due to differences in size and the environment that the nearly 280 species inhabit. Their analysis can thus shed light on the constraints that occur during locomotion, which affect muscles and…

• Morphofunctional effects of captivity on the microanatomy of the talus bone in a wild ungulate ( Sus scrofa ) · 2026

  Résumé de la publication : Captive environments induce plastic and adaptive phenotypic changes to the inner and outer anatomy of vertebrate bones. However, the respective effects of these changes are not well documented. This study examines the impact of captivity on the microanatomy of the talus, an…

• How do forelimb long bones adapt in rhinoceroses? An in‐depth examination of their microanatomy · 2026

  Résumé de la publication : Rhinoceroses, as the second heaviest extant land mammals, show a skeleton highly modified for weight bearing. However, the limbs of these animals, which are still capable of galloping, do not have the columnar organisation of the more massive graviportal taxa, such as…

• Turning without Fins: quantifying the distinct kinematics and vortex dynamics of maneuvering swimming snakes · 2026

  Résumé de la publication : The agile turning maneuvers of anguilliform swimmers remain one of the least studied aspects of aquatic locomotion, despite being crucial for survival in underwater environments. To change direction, animals must find a balance between minimizing their moment of inertia and maximizing torque.…
