Abstract

The dataset contains data about sex, cause of death and quantification of cortisol, testosterone, Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), progesterone, and estradiol from hair (shaven for its entire length from the rump area, 20x20cm) of 20 specimens of Apennine wolves deceased in Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany regions and deposited at the Department of Medical and Veterinary Sciences of the University of Bologna. A comprehensive necropsy examination has been performed to assess age, signaling, biometry, phenotypic markers, causes of death, as well as to conduct virological and parasitological investigations. Instead, the concentration of steroids has been measured using radioimmunoassay techniques upon methanol extraction. Antibodies cross reactivity, as well as intra variation coefficient, were calculated. Hormones are indicators of various physiological states. Measuring their concentration would allow to assess the activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) and hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axes.
