A non-invasive method to assess the reproductive status of the European badger (Meles meles) from urinary sex-steroid metabolites
Due to their unique reproductive physiology and behaviour, European badgers (Meles meles) are often used as a model to study mammalian reproduction. For reproductive endocrinology, circulating hormone levels are conventionally measured directly from blood samples. However, routine blood sampling is...
