The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Vulpes vulpes consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 1 control region (CR). CR is located between the tRNA-Pro and tRNA-Phe genes and is 1173 base pairs (bp) in length. It consists of a short non-repetitive sequence followed by 8-bp 5'-ACACACGT-3' tandem repeat between conserved sequence black I and conserved sequence black II.

Article Synopsis
- Giardia duodenalis and Cryptosporidium spp. are two important parasites that can cause diarrhea in various animal hosts; this study looked at their infection rates in wildlife at Beijing Zoo.
- A total of 445 fecal samples were tested, revealing a 3.82% infection rate for G. duodenalis and a very low 0.22% for Cryptosporidium spp., with specific hosts identified.
- The research suggests that while the overall infection rates are low, G. duodenalis is being found in an expanding range of wildlife, including species like the Corsac Fox and Indian Rhinoceros.

Background: Many animals must adapt their movements to different conditions encountered during different life phases, such as when exploring extraterritorial areas for dispersal, foraging or breeding. To better understand how animals move in different movement phases, we asked whether movement patterns differ between one way directed movements, such as during the transient phase of dispersal or two way exploratory-like movements such as during extraterritorial excursions or stationary movements.
Methods: We GPS collared red foxes in a rural area in southern Germany between 2020 and 2023.
