medetomidine-ketamine-butorphanol anesthetic combinations in binturongs (arctictis binturong).the efficacy, safety, and reliability of two ketamine-medetomidine-butorphanol anesthetic combinations were evaluated in 34 adult binturongs (arctictis binturong). the animals were randomly assigned to one of the two groups. on the basis of estimated body weights, group high ketamine (hk) received ketamine (8 mg/kg, i.m.), medetomidine (0.02 mg/kg, i.m.), and butorphanol (0.2 mg/kg, i.m.) combined in a single injection, and group low ketamine (lk) received ketamine (2 mg/kg, i.m.), medetomidine ...200315077709
myocardial necrosis in a captive binturong (arctictis binturong).an adult male binturong, arctictis binturong, which had been anorexic and lethargic for seven days became acutely dyspnoeic and died under anaesthesia. a postmortem examination revealed left ventricular hypertrophy with a thrombus occluding the left ventricular chamber. histological findings included moderate to severe multifocal, vasculocentric myocardial degeneration and necrosis with fibrosis replacing myocardiocytes. escherichia coli and proteus mirabilis were grown on cultures. the animal's ...200415160846
ticks (acari: ixodidae) parasitizing wild carnivores in phu khieo wildlife sanctuary, thailand.ixodid ticks were collected and identified from 8 wild carnivore species in phu khieo wildlife sanctuary, northeastern thailand. six tick species belonging to 4 genera were recovered and identified from 132 individuals. these included amblyomma testudinarium (n = 36), haemaphysalis asiatica (n = 58), h. hystricis (n = 31), h. semermis (n = 3), rhipicephalus haemaphysaloides (n = 3), and ixodes granulatus (n = 1). leopard cats (prionailurus bengalensis) (n = 19) were infested with 4 tick species, ...200415270119
renal adenocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and pancreatic islet cell carcinoma in a binturong (arctictis binturong).a 19-yr-old binturong (arctictis binturong) with acute upper respiratory disease was euthanized. postmortem findings included hepatocellular carcinoma, pancreatic islet cell carcinoma, and renal adenocarcinoma with metastasis to the spleen, pleura, and pericardium. a link between primary hepatic and renal neoplasms has been noted in older humans.200517315471
sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma in a binturong (arctictis binturong).an adult, female binturong (arctictis binturong) was examined due to lethargy, inappetence, and an abdominal mass. diagnostic investigations, including radiographs, abdominal ultrasound, clinical laboratory findings, and a fine-needle aspirate of the mass, were suggestive of a sarcoma with metastasis. necropsy and histopathologic findings confirmed a widely disseminated sarcomatoid variant of a renal cell carcinoma, likely originating in the left kidney, with metastasis to the right kidney, sple ...200517323574
intervertebral disc extrusion and spinal decompression in a binturong (arctictis binturong).a 10-yr-old binturong (arctictis binturong) developed an acute onset of hind limb paralysis. neurological examination revealed sensorimotor paraplegia. myelography and computed tomography demonstrated a ventrolateral extradural compression of the spinal cord centered over the l3-l4 intervertebral disc space. spinal decompression was performed via hemilaminectomy and excision of degenerate nucleus pulposus, confirmed by histopathologic examination. the binturong regained slight motor function by ...200717469290
dogs, cats, and kin: a molecular species-level phylogeny of carnivora.phylogenies underpin comparative biology as high-utility tools to test evolutionary and biogeographic hypotheses, inform on conservation strategies, and reveal the age and evolutionary histories of traits and lineages. as tools, most powerful are those phylogenies that contain all, or nearly all, of the taxa of a given group. despite their obvious utility, such phylogenies, other than summary 'supertrees', are currently lacking for most mammalian orders, including the order carnivora. carnivora ...201019900567

binturong (arctictis binturong) and kinkajou (potos flavus) digestive strategy: implications for interpreting frugivory in carnivora and primates.exclusive frugivory is rare. as a food resource, fruit is temporally and spatially patchy, low in protein, and variable in terms of energy yield from different carbohydrate types. here, we evaluate the digestive physiology of two frugivorous carnivora species (potos flavus, arctictis binturong) that converge with primates in a diversity of ecological and anatomical traits related to fruit consumption. we conducted feeding trials to determine mean digestive retention times (mrt) on captive animal ...201425157614
fecal microbial diversity and putative function in captive western lowland gorillas (gorilla gorilla gorilla), common chimpanzees (pan troglodytes), hamadryas baboons (papio hamadryas) and binturongs (arctictis binturong).microbial populations in the gastrointestinal tract contribute to host health and nutrition. although gut microbial ecology is well studied in livestock and domestic animals, little is known of the endogenous populations inhabiting primates or carnivora. we characterized microbial populations in fecal cultures from gorillas (gorilla gorilla gorilla), common chimpanzees (pan troglodytes), hamadryas baboons (papio hamadryas) and binturongs (arctictis binturong) to compare the microbiomes associate ...201425236539
reproductive endocrine patterns and volatile urinary compounds of arctictis binturong: discovering why bearcats smell like popcorn.members of the order carnivora rely on urinary scent signaling, particularly for communicating about reproductive parameters. here, we describe reproductive endocrine patterns in relation to urinary olfactory cues in a vulnerable and relatively unknown viverrid--the binturong (arctictis binturong). female binturongs are larger than and dominate males, and both sexes engage in glandular and urinary scent marking. using a large (nā€‰=ā€‰33), captive population, we collected serum samples to measure ci ...201627056047
treatment of renal carcinoma in a binturong (arctictis binturong) with nephrectomy and a tyrosine kinase inhibitor.a 13-yr-old female binturong ( arctictis binturong ) presented with a 1 wk history of decreased appetite. the animal was thin, with hypercalcemia (calcium 12.2 mg/dl). a right renal mass was identified on ultrasound and removed via nephrectomy. histopathology indicated a renal adenocarcinoma. treatment with toceranib phosphate, a tyrosine-kinase inhibitor, was initiated and well tolerated by the animal. four months after initial diagnosis radiographs indicated metastases to the lungs and the ani ...201628080923
mycobacterium intracellulare infection causing a retroperitoneal mass in a binturong (arctictis binturong).a 19-yr-old castrated male binturong ( arctictis binturong ) with a history of recurrent pyogranulomatous panniculitis, lymphangitis, and dermatitis was presented for evaluation of hyporexia and tenesmus. a large caudal abdominal mass was palpated on physical examination. on ultrasound, the mass encircled and obstructed the left ureter, resulting in hydroureter and hydronephrosis. the animal was euthanized, and necropsy revealed a large retroperitoneal pyogranuloma with acid-fast organisms ident ...201728749262
blood meal identification in the cryptic species anopheles gambiae and anopheles coluzzii using maldi-tof ms.matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (maldi-tof ms) has recently emerged in entomology as a technique to identify arthropods and their blood meal source. in this study, female anopheles gambiae were fed on five host blood sources: ocelot (leopardus pardalis), binturong (arctictis binturong), springbok (antidorcas marsupialis), jaguar (panthera onca) and hamadryas baboon (papio hamadryas), while anopheles coluzzii were fed on three hosts: dromedary (camelus ...201830052501
characteristics of the complete mitochondrial genome of the monotypic genus arctictis (family: viverridae) and its phylogenetic implications.the binturong (arctictis binturong) is classified as a member of the subfamily paradoxurinae within the family viverridae (carnivora: mammalia) and comprises nine subspecies spread across southern and southeast asia. here, we describe the complete mitochondrial genome of the indian subspecies a. b. albifrons using next-generation sequencing methods. the total length of the a. b. albifrons mitogenome was 16,642 bp. phylogenetic analyses based on 13 mitochondrial protein-coding genes placed the bi ...201931788354
limited directed seed dispersal in the canopy as one of the determinants of the low hemi-epiphytic figs' recruitments in bornean rainforests.ficus species are keystone plants in tropical rainforests, and hemi-epiphytic figs play a notably important role in forest ecosystems. because hemi-epiphytic figs have strict germination requirements, germination and establishment stages regulate their populations. despite the ecological importance of hemi-epiphytic figs in the rainforests, seed dispersal systems by fig-eating animals under natural conditions remain unknown because of the difficulty in tracing the destiny of dispersed seeds in t ...201931194749
biodiversity and phylogenetic relationships of novel bacteriocinogenic strains isolated from animal's droppings at the zoological garden of lille, france.this study aimed at exploring droppings of animals living in captivity in the zoological garden (zoo) of lille (france), as novel sources of bacteriocinogenic strains. a collection of 295 bacterial isolates was constituted from droppings of capybara, alpaca, muntjac, zebra, tapir, rhinoceros, binturong, armadillo, saki monkey and cockatoo. of 295 isolates, 51 exhibited antagonism against a panel of pathogenic target bacteria like escherichia coli mc4100, clostridium perfringens dsm 756 and salmo ...202032388703
