A new program in Melbourne, Australia is using the study of hormones in wildlife to help save endangered species from extinction. The program, led by Dr. Marissa Parrott and Dr. Kerry Fanson, focuses on understanding the role of hormones in animal health, behavior, and reproduction. By studying hormone levels in animals such as the mountain pygmy-possum, Leadbeater's possum, Tasmanian devil, and New Holland mouse, the researchers hope to develop biomarkers that can be used to monitor the reproductive health of endangered species without causing stress or harm. Additionally, their work has provided insights into human reproduction and potential infertility issues. [Extracted from the article] |
