TL;DR: The authors isolate evolutionary and ecological drivers of gut microbiomes from wild mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish to provide a robust assessment of the processes driving microbial community assembly in the vertebrate intestine.

TL;DR: Compared with other livestock, which show a long history of gene flow with their wild ancestors, the dromedary finds a high initial diversity relative to the native distribution of the wild ancestor on the Arabian Peninsula and to the brief coexistence of early-domesticated and wild individuals.

TL;DR: In this paper, a literature review scrutinizes renewable energy resources which are relevant in the Alpine region and their effects on the environment by applying the Ecosystem Service approach, identifying possible environmental constraints when exploiting Alpine RE potentials and generated recommendations for future strategies on expanding RE.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used satellite telemetry and direct observations to assess differences in their resource selection strategies and social organization and found that the Gobi areas provide an edge, rather than an optimal habitat for Przewalski's horses.

TL;DR: The MRSA isolates described in this study represent the first detection of mecC-positive MRSA in a European otter (Lutra lutra) and a European brown hare (Lepus europaeus) and represents the first isolation of MRnSA from a Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx).
