Lièvre et lapin à Regourdou (Montignac-sur-Vézère, Dordogne, France) : études paléontologique et taphonomique de deux accumulations osseuses d’origin…
2015
Since the end of the nineteenth century, a great deal of work studyingsubsistence patterns of prehistoric societies in Western Europe has been done. During the Middle Paleolithic, humanswere interested in small game, particularly the Leporidae, taxa that were abundant in their territories. However,distinguishing the exact nature of their origin in an archaeological site is not an easy task, given that numerous agentscould be responsible for their accumulation (i.e., natural mortality, acquisition by humans and/or other terrestrialcarnivores, or even nocturnal or diurnal raptors). In this contribution, we put forth a new taphonomic and paleontologicalstudy of the leporids of Regourdou, a Mou…
Data from: Moving in the Anthropocene: global reductions in terrestrial mammalian movements
2019
Animal movement is fundamental for ecosystem functioning and species survival, yet the effects of the anthropogenic footprint on animal movements have not been estimated across species. Using a unique GPS-tracking database of 803 individuals across 57 species, we found that movements of mammals in areas with a comparatively high human footprint were on average one-half to one-third the extent of their movements in areas with a low human footprint. We attribute this reduction to behavioral changes of individual animals and to the exclusion of species with long-range movements from areas with higher human impact. Global loss of vagility alters a key ecological trait of animals that affects no…
Klepus ārstēšanā paredzēto augu preparātu aprites datu analīze un aptiekas klientu aptaujas izvērtējums
2019
Klepus var būt simptoms dažādu elpceļu saslimšanu gadījumos. Ārstniecības augu drogu preparāti uzrāda pretmikrobu, pretvīrusu, antioksidanta un spazmolītisku iedarbību. Maģistra darba mērķis: apkopot klepus ārstēšanai izmantojamo ārstniecības augu preparātu apriti un veikt aptiekas klientu anketēšanu. Aprites dati parāda, ka izplatītākās pretklepus augu drogas ir šaurlapu ceļtekas lapas, ārstniecības altejas sakne, islandes ķērpja lapoņi, vijīgās efejas lapas, parastā timiāna laksti un mazā mārsila laksti. Visvairāk tiek lietoti bezrecepšu medikamenti (46%), bet nedaudz mazāk – uztura bagātinātāji (27%) un tējas (27%). Farmaceita loma ir būtiska un vairums respondentu vēlētos saņemt ieteiku…

BORRELIA BURGDORFERI SENSU LATO DETECTED IN SKIN OF NORWEGIAN MOUNTAIN HARES (LEPUS TIMIDUS) WITHOUT SIGNS OF DISSEMINATION
2011
The mountain hare (Lepus timidus) population in southern Norway appears to be in decline. Necropsy and laboratory examinations of 36 hares found dead or diseased during 2007-2009 in Vest- and Aust-Agder counties showed that disease and deaths were attributed to multiple causes, with no specific etiology emerging as a cause for population decline. To investigate whether Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) infection is associated with mortality in mountain hares, tissues and ticks collected from hares were investigated for infection with the spirochete. Borrelia burgdorferi s.l. DNA was not detected in samples from internal organs, whereas Borrelia afzelii, B. burgdorferi sensu stricto (s.…

Nuevos datos sobre la presencia de lepus en el pleistoceno medio y superior del Mediterráneo Ibérico: La Cova del Bolomor (Valencia)
2012
Se presentan datos novedosos sobre la presencia de la liebre en el área valenciana durante el Pleistoceno medio y superior. Una interesante, aunque reducida, muestra ósea procedente de la Cova del Bolomor ha sido asignada a este género de lagomorfos. Su aparición en la fase inicial de ocupación de la cavidad (MIS 9) corresponde, por el momento, a la cita más antigua de Lepus en esta zona (ca. 350 ka). La determinación de otros huesos de liebre en los niveles superiores del yacimiento (MIS 6 y 5e), junto a otras referencias, confirma la continuidad del género hasta el Holoceno.
The helminth community of the Iberian hare, Lepus granatensis (Lagomorpha: Leporidae), in the province of Granada, Spain
2014
Abstract The helminth community of the Iberian hare, Lepus granatensis, in the southern Spanish province of Granada was analysed, thorough the study of 487 individuals shot by hunters between November 1998 and October 1999. Six helminth species were found: Mosgovoyia pectinata (Cestoda); Trichostrongylus retortaeformis, Nematodiroides zembrae, Nematodirus sp., Passalurus ambiguus and Micipsella numidica (Nematoda). N. zembrae and M. pectinata (62.4 % and 17.2 %, respectively) were the only component species found. The predominance of helminth species with a direct life cycle is noteworthy. These two component species were significantly influenced by season of capture. Other factors, such as…
