The journal aims to foster the development of research in Ecology, Zoology, Forestry, Geographic distribution and Taxonomy (biology). Habitat, Ecology (disciplines), Predation and Range (biology) are among the areas of Ecology tackled. The journal features Zoology research that overlaps with concepts in Reproduction.
The main points discussed in the published articles deal with Ecology, Forestry, Zoology, Habitat and Humanities. The published articles link adjacent topics like Ecology with Feeding behavior. Many of the studies tackled in the journal papers connect Zoology with a similar field of study like Geographic distribution.
The aim of the journal is to expand the discussion of research in Zoology, Ecology, Range (biology), Rodent and Habitat. While work presented in it provided substantial information on Zoology, it also covered topics in CATS, Albinism and Armadillo. Ecosystem, Small mammal, Nature reserve, Ecology (disciplines) and Predation are some of the study areas of Ecology discussed.
The work on Rodent addressed in Mammalia expands to the thematically related Threatened species. The journal explores issues in Habitat which can be linked to other research areas like Protected area and Wetland. The journal links adjacent topics like Morphology (biology) with Phylogenetics.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Mammalia (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Mammalia (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 6.59% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 20.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 5.88% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 23.53% of all publications and 50.59% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)Pursuing a degree in Animal Science or Veterinary studies opens doors to diverse and rewarding careers in animal care, research, and health management. For those seeking high earning potential, exploring high paying jobs with animals can provide valuable insight into specialized roles such as veterinary specialists, animal scientists, or wildlife conservationists.
Beyond animal-focused careers, interdisciplinary pathways are gaining traction. For instance, healthcare professions tied to animal welfare or human health, like nursing and dietetics, offer complementary roles. Students interested in advancing their nursing qualifications can consider flexible options such as lvn to bsn programs, which provide an online route to becoming a registered nurse.
For those aiming for research or academic leadership, online phd nursing programs offer a convenient path to advanced expertise and contribute to innovative healthcare solutions that can intersect with veterinary sciences.
Additionally, careers in nutrition and animal dietetics are gaining prominence. Prospective students can explore dietitian graduate programs to develop skills relevant to both human and animal dietary health, broadening their professional avenues. These related degree options highlight the dynamic nature of careers stemming from an animal science foundation.
