Abstract Juvenile mammals in their postweaning developmental stages face many challenges in transitioning to adulthood. Among large grazing species such as ruminant bovids and cervids, an overarching challenge is acquiring and processing sufficient n

Thermal implications of interactions between insulation, solar reflectance, and fur structure in the summer coats of diverse species of kangaroo

Autor: Shane K. Maloney, Terence J. Dawson

Publikováno v: Journal of Comparative Physiology B. 187:517-528

Not all of the solar radiation that impinges on a mammalian coat is absorbed and converted into thermal energy at the coat surface. Some is reflected back to the environment, while another portion is reflected further into the coat where it is absorb

Field metabolic rate, movement distance, and grazing pressures by western grey kangaroos (Macropus fuliginosus melanops) and Merino sheep (Ovis aries) in semi-arid Australia

Publikováno v: Mammalian Biology. 81:423-430

Details of the energy (food) requirements of wild herbivores are essential for understanding their role in ecosystems generally, and for evaluating their potential impact on co-occurring domestic herbivores, as in the case for Australia’s largest g

Carnivory in euros, inland wallaroos (Macropus robustus erubescens)

Autor: Matthew L. Brun, Terence J. Dawson, Amoi Stubbs-Oliver, Keith E. A. Leggett

Publikováno v: Australian Mammalogy. 42:357

This paper reports on an observation of carnivorous scavenging by euros (inland wallaroos) (Macropus robustus erubescens) at Fowlers Gap in western New South Wales. We believe this to be the first sighting of a euro feeding on another macropod.

Water use and feeding patterns of the marsupial western grey kangaroo (Macropus fuliginosus melanops) grazing at the edge of its range in arid Australia, as compared with the dominant local livestock, the Merino sheep (Ovis aries)

Autor: Steve R. McLeod, Adam J. Munn, Terence J. Dawson, Lauren Kalkman, Peta Skeers

Publikováno v: Mammalian Biology. 79:1-8

Western grey kangaroos (Macropus fuliginosus melanops) are large, foregut fermenting herbivores common to Australia's southern woodlands and shrublands, but they extend well into semiarid habitats at the north-eastern edge of their range. At this ran

The fur of mammals in exposed environments; do crypsis and thermal needs necessarily conflict? The polar bear and marsupial koala compared

Autor: Shane K. Maloney, Koa N. Webster, Terence J. Dawson

Publikováno v: Journal of Comparative Physiology B. 184:273-284

The furs of mammals have varied and complex functions. Other than for thermoregulation, fur is involved in physical protection, sensory input, waterproofing and colouration, the latter being important for crypsis or camouflage. Some of these diverse

Feeding biology of two functionally different foregut‐fermenting mammals, the marsupial red kangaroo and the ruminant sheep: how physiological ecology can inform land management

Autor: Adam J. Munn, Steven R. McLeod, Terence J. Dawson

Publikováno v: Journal of Zoology. 282:226-237

Fermentative digestion in an expanded foregut region has evolved independently among Australia’s marsupial kangaroos as well as among placental ruminants. However, notable differences occur in the form and function of the kangaroo and ruminant fore

Rediscovery of the plains mouse (Pseudomys australis) (Rodentia : Muridae) in New South Wales

Publikováno v: Australian Mammalogy. 40:127

We report the rediscovery of the rare and endangered native rodent, the plains mouse (Pseudomys australis) in New South Wales (NSW). Two plains mice were trapped in the far west of the state at Fowlers Gap Arid Zone Research Station and another in th

Forage fibre digestion, rates of feed passage and gut fill in juvenile and adult red kangaroos Macropus rufus Desmarest: why body size matters

Autor: Adam J. Munn, Terence J. Dawson

Publikováno v: Journal of Experimental Biology. 209:1535-1547

SUMMARY Using red kangaroos Macropus rufus Desmarest, a large (>20 kg)marsupial herbivore, we compared the digestive capabilities of juveniles with those of mature, non-lactating females on high-quality forage (chopped lucerne Medicago sativa hay) of
