متن کاملReproduction of the red fox Vulpes vulpes in Central Italy
The reproduction of the red fox Vulpes vulpes has been widely studied (Hayssen et al. 1993). Most features are highly variable, and reproductive output appears dependent on food availability at high latitudes (Englund 1970), whereas at lower latitudes it seems limited by social constraints (Macdonald 1980, Lindström 1989). No data on the reproduction of the red fox are available for the Mediter...
متن کاملA survey for Toxoplasma gondii in red fox (Vulpes vulpes) from Finnmark County, Norway
Samples (blood or tissue fluid) from 405 red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) from Finnmark, Northern Norway, were assayed for antibodies against T. gondii using the direct agglutination test (DAT). The proportion of seropositive animals was 42.5 %, with no significant relationship between sex and infection. The proportion of seropositives seemed to increase with age, in agreement with findings in previou...
متن کاملThe dispersion and detection patterns of mtDNA-assigned red fox Vulpes vulpes scats in Tasmania are anomalous
Models used for resource allocation in eradication programmes must be based on replicated data of known quality and have proven predictive accuracy, or they may provide a false indication of species presence and/or distribution. In the absence of data corroborating the presence of extant foxes Vulpes vulpes in Tasmania, a habitat-specific model based upon mtDNA data (Sarre et al. 2012. Journal ...
متن کاملIsozymes of hair follicles from silver fox, Vulpes vulpes
Isozymes have been studied in blood from the silver fox Vulpes vulpes and a few enzymes expressed variation (Simonsen et al. 1990). However, if live animals are to be studied obtainment of blood samples requires fixation or anaesthesia. Tissue samples are even more difficult to obtain. Earlier investigations, especially in forensic medicine, used a piece of cloth with e.g. bloodstains for detec...
