[...] en mars dernier, un groupe de biologistes du MRN [ministère des Richesses naturelles] et de bénévoles [...] ont sélectionné 14 femelles du troupeau et les ont dotées d'un collier émetteur à transmission par satellite. [...] En analysant les signaux émis par les colliers et retransmis par un satellite, les étudiants pourront suivre les déplacements des caribous et déterminer où ils se reproduisent, l'emplacement de leurs divers quartiers saisonniers et l'itinéraire qu'ils suivent d'une saison à l'autre. 1, record 11, French, - collier%20%C3%A9metteur%20%C3%A0%20transmission%20par%20satellite

La télémesure satellitaire peut fournir la clé de nombreux mystères entourant une espèce donnée : ses routes de migration, son domaine vital, ses aires d'hivernage, son habitat, ainsi que le moment ou l'endroit où elle peut être en difficulté. 7, record 11, French, - collier%20%C3%A9metteur%20%C3%A0%20transmission%20par%20satellite

collier satellitaire : nous ne recommandons pas l'usage de ce terme, parce que «satellitaire» veut dire «obtenu par des satellites d'observation» (d'après le Grand Dictionnaire encyclopédique Larousse). On ne peut pas qualifier un collier de «satellitaire», mais cet adjectif peut très bien qualifier un terme comme «mesure». 4, record 11, French, - collier%20%C3%A9metteur%20%C3%A0%20transmission%20par%20satellite

We performed five transfers of the ipsilateral fibula in the treatment of congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia. In all cases, conventional treatment by intramedullary-rod and autogenous-iliac bone grafting had failed at least once. We hoped to avoid the use of contralateralfibular grafting or other methods that have not yet been proven effective. The ipsilateral fibula was transferred, and its vascular pedicle left intact and secured to both fragments of the tibial pseudarthrosis by cerclage wires. All five transfers have united and hypertrophied with growth. We believe this salvage method is superior to others not only because of the successful results, but also because the intact limb is left undisturbed. 2, record 12, English, - os%20odontoideum

L'anomalie la plus fréquente est la pseudarthrose congénitale ou os odontoïde. C'est un ossicule rond ou ovale, bordé d'une ligne dense continue, séparée de la base de l'axis. Il se situe au niveau de l'odontoïde mais peut être plus haut situé, voire même fusionné avec le clivus. Chez l'enfant, il doit être différencié par les clichés dynamiques d'un défaut de fusion physiologique avant 12 ans. 1, record 12, French, - os%20odonto%C3%AFde

To control rabies in free-ranging animals, health officials in the 1950s had depended on thinning populations that harbored the offending virus. They tried gassing of dens, poisoning, trapping and shooting, among other tactics... Biologists reviewing some 10 years of experience with population-reduction programs for foxes, skunks and raccoons concluded that to improve the success rate, enormous numbers of animals would have to be killed. Because the species reproduce prolifically, destruction of more than 60 percent of a population would often be required to ensure that eradication of rabies persisted beyond one reproductive cycle... 1, record 14, English, - population%2Dreduction%20program
