Functional morphology of the cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) mandible: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis (2015)
Journal Article

The diet of the fossil cave bears (Ursus spelaeus group) has been debated extensively. Thought traditionally to be herbivorous, more recent studies have proposed more meat in the cave bear diet. To test this, the mandibular morphology of cave bears w... Read More about Functional morphology of the cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) mandible: a 3D geometric morphometric analysis.

Assessing the Effects of Tourist Provisioning on the Health of Wild Barbary Macaques in Morocco (2016)
Journal Article
Marechal, L., Semple, S., Majolo, B., & MacLarnon, A. (2016). Assessing the Effects of Tourist Provisioning on the Health of Wild Barbary Macaques in Morocco. PLoS ONE, 11(5), Article e0155920. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0155920

Feeding wildlife is a very popular tourist activity, largely because it facilitates the close observation of animals in their natural habitat. Such provisioning may benefit animals by improving their survival and reproductive success, especially duri...

Implications of Tourist-Macaque Interactions for Disease Transmission (2017)
Journal Article
Carne, C., Semple, S., MacLarnon, A., Majolo, B., & Marechal, L. (2017). Implications of Tourist-Macaque Interactions for Disease Transmission. EcoHealth, 14(4), 704-717. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10393-017-1284-3

During wildlife tourism, proximity or actual contact between people and animals may lead to a significant risk of anthropozoonotic disease transmission. In this paper, we use social network analysis, disease simulation modelling and data on animal he... Read More about Implications of Tourist-Macaque Interactions for Disease Transmission.

Multi-sectoral action in non-communicable disease prevention policy development in five African countries (2018)
Journal Article

Background The rise of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in Africa requires a multi-sectoral action (MSA) in their prevention and control. This study aimed to generate evidence on the extent of MSA application in NCD prevention policy development in f...

Journal Article
Baauw, A. H., Heyne, H., Williams, K. S., Hill, R. A., Heitkönig, I. M., & Williams, S. T. (2019). First records of Hyalomma rufipes and Ixodes neitzi (Acari: Ixodidae) found on large carnivores in South Africa.

Ixodid ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) are important disease vectors for large carnivores, but the composition of the tick communities that parasitize carnivores is poorly understood. We collected ticks from leopards (Panthera pardus) and brown hyenas (Hyaen...
