2023 article
Exploring the behaviors and social preferences of a large, multigenerational herd of zoo-housed southern white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum simum)
Williams, B., Campbell, J., Kendall, C., Tuttle, J., & Lynch, E. C. (2023, February 21). ZOO BIOLOGY, Vol. 2.
author keywords: ceratotherium; social behavior; welfare; zoo animal
TL;DR:
It is recommended that management plans attempt to house immature females with calf-less adult females, as they may be necessary to the social landscape of immature females and, ultimately, improve their welfare.

2023 journal article
Ungulate responses and habituation to unmanned aerial vehicles in Africa's savanna
PLOS ONE, 18(7).
TL;DR:
A stronger correlation between flight altitude and response across the different ungulates is suggested, and the evidence suggests rapid habituation to the UAVs.

2020 journal article
Increasing browse and social complexity can improve zoo elephant welfare
ZOO BIOLOGY, 40(1), 9–19.
author keywords: behavior; diet; ex situ; Loxodonta africana; management; social
MeSH headings : Animal Feed / analysis; Animal Husbandry / methods; Animal Welfare; Animals; Animals, Zoo / physiology; Appetitive Behavior; Behavior, Animal; Diet / veterinary; Elephants / physiology; Female; Male; Social Behavior
TL;DR:
It is found that increasing browse can improve opportunities for foraging throughout the day but may not be sufficient to reduce repetitive behaviors, and increasing group size and integration of bulls with cows can lead to increased social interaction in African elephants.

2004 journal article
Use of total dietary fiber across four lemur species (Propithecus verreauxi coquereli, Hapalemur griseus griseus, Varecia variegata, and Eulemur fulvus): Does fiber type affect digestive efficiency?
AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PRIMATOLOGY, 64(3), 323–335.
author keywords: fiber utilization; lemurs; total dietary fiber; insoluble fiber; soluble fiber; primate nutrition
MeSH headings : Animals; Dietary Fiber / pharmacology; Digestion / drug effects; Food Analysis; Gastrointestinal Transit / physiology; Lemur / physiology; Species Specificity
TL;DR:
The results from these captive groups suggest there are large differences in digestive efficiency that are likely related to the varied fiber composition of the free‐ranging diet, and the amount of time the digesta are retained in the gut.

2002 article
Fecal inoculum can be used to determine the rate and extent of in vitro fermentation of dietary fiber sources across three lemur species that differ in dietary profile: Varecia variegata, Eulemur fulvus and Hapalemur griseus
Campbell, J. L., Williams, C. V., & Eisemann, J. H. (2002, October). JOURNAL OF NUTRITION, Vol. 132, pp. 3073–3080.
author keywords: short-chain fatty acid production; lemurs; in vitro fermentation system; insoluble fiber; soluble fiber
MeSH headings : Animal Feed; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Beta vulgaris / metabolism; Cellulose / metabolism; Citrus / metabolism; Dietary Fiber / metabolism; Fatty Acids, Volatile / metabolism; Feces / microbiology; Female; Fermentation / physiology; In Vitro Techniques; Kinetics; Lemuridae / metabolism; Male; Pectins / metabolism; Solubility; Species Specificity
TL;DR:
Evidence for differences in fermentative capacity among lemur species is provided and fiber solubility and fermentability should be considered when assessing the nutritional management of lemurs is suggested.

Chemical analysis of six commercial adult iguana [Iguana iguana], diets
Journal of Herpetological Medicine and Surgery, 11(3), 23.
TL;DR:
Investigation of the nutrient composition of six commercially available adult iguana feeds found that three of the six diets intended for use as principle diets hadFat contents below the amount stated on labels, which is a key variable of captive reptile husbandry.

Use of local North Carolina browse species to supplement the diet of a captive colony of folivorous primates (Propithecus sp.)
ZOO BIOLOGY, 20(6), 447–461.
author keywords: primate diets; nutritional management in captivity; folivores
TL;DR:
Increased fiber density can be a major benefit of browse use only when incorporated into the total diet with respect to species use, quantity of other diet ingredients offered, and targeted nutrient intakes.

Intake, digestibility, and passage of a commercially designed diet by two Propithecus species
American Journal of Primatology, 48(3), 237–246.
TL;DR:
Results obtained indicate no difference in digestibility nor digesta passage between species, and that both Propithecus species were similar to other post‐gastric folivores.
