What is it more interesting to read when you are on the beach this summer, then such interesting topic?
Do you want to know more on “Open Field Test (OFT) and Mirror Image Stimulation (MIS) for behaviour testing”?
And do you know that “Relationships between personality and fitness components can vary with changes in population density and/or habitat quality”?
Have a look of the two new UAGRA papers!
It is online the last UAGRA paper! Invasive alien species can increase phisiological stress in native causing lower reproductive output.
Have a look of what British Ecological Society reports and find the paper in UAGRA publication section

Giacomo Cremonesi – Assessing the impact of human activities on wildlife in Myanmar tropical forests using emerging technologies
I’m Giacomo,I have a master degree in Ecobiology achieved at La Sapienza University of Rome. I have already had the pleasure of collaborating in both of my theses with the group UAGRA and this year I will start my PhD. The principals aims of my work will be:
– Increase knowledge on distribution and ecology of medium-large endangered mammals in tropical forests
– Evaluation of human activities and their role on degradation of tropical ecosystems
– Identification of criticalities for conservation and planning of improving management strategies currently in progress
Despite the overlapping ranges of native and introduced tree squirrels in Northern Italy, Sciurus vulgaris was exclusively infected with Cryptosporidium ferret genotype while C. ubiquitum and skunk genotype may have been introduced to Europe with invasive squirrels.
If you are interested in this strange topic for UAGRA team read the recent publication in collaboration with the Institute of Parasitology, Biology Centre of the Czech Academy of Sciences, České Budějovice, Czech Republic, the Faculty of Agriculture, University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice, Czech Republic, the Department of Pathology and Parasitology, University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical sciences, Brno, Czech Republic, the Department of Veterinary Sciences and Public Health, Università degli Studi di Milano, Milan, Italy and the Veterinary and Microbiological Sciences Department, North Dakota State University, Fargo, USA.
Apparently down … Alpine Galliforms trend.
Don’t miss last UAGRA paper!
This is the first study that confirms the invasiveness of the Pallas’s squirrel also in terms of capability to compete with native species. UAGRA shows how the Palla’s squirrel in Italy competes with the Eurasian red squirrel for space and food resources. Read more here.
