We estimated chronic wasting disease (CWD) prevalence among vehicle-killed mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) in select data analysis units (DAUs) in northern Colorado, USA, and compared these with estimated CWD prevalence among mule deer of the same sex sampled in the vicinity of collision sites to assess relative vulnerability of CWD-infected individuals to vehicle collisions. Twenty-five of 171...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the suitability of killed house ßy (Musca domestica L) pupae for production of two economically important pupal parasitoids. Two-day-old ßy pupae were subjected to heat shock treatments of varying temperatures and durations in an oven at 70%RH; exposure to temperatures of 55 Cor higher for 15min or longer resulted in 100%mortality. Exposure to 50 C re...
