This study examines if tusk anomalies in narwhals affect foraging ecology using genetic sexing and stable isotope analysis, finding no systematic impact but noting differences in isotopic values for specimens with unusual dentition.

The paper analyzes mitochondrial genomes of Cape buffalo from Addo Elephant National Park, finding a highly divergent mitogenome likely from introgressive hybridization with an extinct species.

The paper analyzes biomolecular data from 39 mammoth individuals to understand Upper Palaeolithic human resource use, finding no sex-based foraging differences in Late Pleistocene megafauna.
