Cover: View from a sled when travelling with an Inuit hunter in North Greenland (photograph by Nadine Gerth). N. Gerth, S. Sum, S. Jackson and J. M. Starck (pp. 1131-1139) investigated structural changes of locomotor muscles of Inuit sled dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) between the lazy summer season and the working winter season in locations differing in dog husbandry in Greenland. Muscle fiber atrophy during summer was more pronounced in a food-restricted group of dogs than in dogs in balanced energy budget. In winter, the muscle fibers regained full functionality. The capillary network remained unchanged throughout the year at both locations.Close Modal - PDF Icon PDF LinkTable of contents

How climbing parrots achieve pitch stability while ascending
Climbing parrots push and pull with their feet on ladder rungs and push with their tails to prevent themselves from toppling backward as they ascend.
Towards understanding the neural origins of hibernation
Madeleine Junkins, Sviatoslav Bagriantsev and Elena Gracheva review the role of the nervous system in hibernation, arguing that it actively promotes and supports the hibernation process rather than simply enduring it.
