Spatial Requirements of Free-Ranging Huon Tree Kangaroos, Dendrolagus matschiei (Macropodidae), in Upper Montane Forest
Tree kangaroos (Macropodidae, Dendrolagus) are some of Australasia's least known mammals. However, there is sufficient evidence of population decline and local extinctions that all New Guinea tree kangaroos are considered threatened. Understanding spatial requirements is important in conservation and management. Expectations from studies of Australian tree kangaroos and other rainforest macropo...
متن کاملPrimary Mycobacterium avium complex infections correlate with lowered cellular immune reactivity in Matschie's tree kangaroos (Dendrolagus matschiei).
The National Zoological Park has maintained a breeding colony of Matschie's tree kangaroos (Dendrolagus matschiei) since 1975 with a documented history and continued prevalence of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infections. No evidence of immunosuppressive retrovirus infections or loss of heterozygosity that may have led to an immune dysfunction in these animals was found. Isolates of MAC org...
متن کاملBone lesions in three tree kangaroos.
THIS REPORT deals with 3 cases of proliferative disease of the bone in Matschie tree kangaroos (Dendrolagus matschiei) at the National Zoological Park. The osseous lesions had similar radiographic manifestations but dissimilar causes. One kangaroo had tuberculous osteomyelitis of the vertebral column and radius; the 2nd had a chondrosarcoma of the vertebral column and femur; and the 3rd had bil...
متن کاملTaste-nutrient relationships in commonly consumed foods.
Taste is expected to represent a food's nutrient content. The objective was to investigate whether taste acts as nutrient-sensor, within the context of the current diet, which is high in processed foods. Intensities of the five basic tastes of fifty commonly consumed foods were rated by nineteen subjects (aged 21·0 (SD 1·7) years, BMI 21·5 (SD 2·0) kg/m(2)). Linear regression was used to test a...
