a 3-year-old wild gray wolf was referred to the department of veterinary clinical sciences of shirazuniversity with a history of car accident. the radiographic examination showed supracondylar distal femoralfracture in right leg. the wolf was pre-medicated by acepromazine followed by induction of anesthesia usinga combination of diazepam and ketamine. anesthesia was maintained by halothane. the...

Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) biomass has declined in Yellowstone National Park (YNP) in the past century. We installed permanent belt transects (plots) for long-term monitoring of aspen stands both within and outside of established wolf pack territories on YNP’s northern range to determine if reintroduced wolves are influencing elk browsing patterns and aspen regeneration through a troph...

We present a narrow-band Very Large Telescope/Focal Reduced Low-dispersion Spectrograph #1 imaging survey of the SAB(rs)cd spiral galaxy NGC 5068, located at a distance of 5.45 Mpc, from which 160 candidate Wolf–Rayet sources have been identified, of which 59 cases possess statistically significant λ4686 excesses. Follow-up Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph spectroscopy of 64 candidates, represe...

BACKGROUND Reestablishment of apex predators influences the availability and distribution of biomass for scavengers and can therefore be an important agent for structuring species communities. We studied how the re-colonization of the Scandinavian Peninsula by wolves (Canis lupus) affected the amount and temporal variation in use of moose (Alces alces) carcasses. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDING...

In [4], we proposed a theoretical framework to construct matching algorithms for any biometric authentication systems. In this paper, we will introduce the results in [4] and add some comments on the accuracy (FAR and FRR) of our proposed matching algorithms (Lemma 6, 7, 8). Conventional matching algorithms are not necessarily secure against strong intentional impersonation attacks such as wolf...

Wolf-Hirshhorn is a rare chromosomal defect syndrome. We present two cases of children diagnosed with Wolf-Hirshhorn syndrome, and discuss the ramifications of anesthesia for these patients.

The vast majority of plant viruses are transmitted by insect vectors, with many crucial aspects the transmission process being mediated key protein–protein interactions. Still, very few vector proteins interacting have been identified and functionally characterized. Potato leafroll virus (PLRV) is most efficiently Myzus persicae, green peach aphid, in a circulative, non-propagative manner. Usin...
