Deer stew, roast of wild boar, venison ragout - come fall, all varieties of game are in season for gourmets. However, ever since the worldwide surge in genetically modified corn, critical consumers' appetites have abated somewhat. After all, it was not clear precisely how wild animals digest transgenic corn and whether or not residues actually accumulate in meat, for example. Molecular biologists from the Technische Universitaet Muenchen (TUM) have shown that there is no need for concern - also with regard to the inadvertent dispersal of genetically modified corn via wild animal feces. http://www.physorg.com/news175792791.html Biology Mon, 26 Oct 2009 17:10:01 EST news175792791 Hares, foxes and wild boar are increasingly migrating into Germany's cities, causing havoc and even sometimes endangering humans, a major wildlife organisation said on Monday. http://www.physorg.com/news155230697.html Biology Mon, 02 Mar 2009 15:38:51 EST news155230697 In an epidemiological survey of Spain's Dońana National Park, the findings of which are published on July 23 in the journal PLoS ONE, Christian Gortázar and colleagues studied the prevalence of bovine tuberculosis (bovine TB) infection among populations of wild boar, red deer and fallow deer in the national park, which is located in southern Spain. The researchers suggest that the results can be used to investigate bovine TB transmission dynamics between and within each species and to extrapolate the implications for spill-over to domestic cattle and wildlife management policies. http://www.physorg.com/news136010164.html Biology Wed, 23 Jul 2008 05:36:04 EST news136010164
