We collected Amur tiger track data and occurrence data through snow track tracking, sample line surveys, and camera traps. The study concluded that forest roads, scrub vegetation, and human landscape factors were the main factors influencing Amur tiger movements at fine scales and examined the negative correlation between tiger path curvature values ...

Survey optimization for invasive Burmese pythons informed by camera traps 基于自动相机监测技术的入侵物种缅甸蟒的调查优化
We evaluated the utility of camera traps to survey invasive Burmese pythons in the Florida Keys by deploying cameras pointed towards target areas of known radiotagged snakes under two trigger mechanisms—motion‐triggered or timelapse. We estimated detection probability and diel activity to optimize future surveys using timelapse camera traps and paired ...

Trends and progress in studying butterfly migration 蝴蝶迁徙行为的研究趋势与进展
We show (i) the potential importance of non‐English‐language literature for understanding butterfly migration globally, (ii) studies are mostly concentrated in North America and Europe with very few from the tropics, (iii) most studies are focused on three species: the Monarch (Danaus plexippus), Painted Lady (Vanessa cardui) and Red Admiral (Vanessa ...

Unravelling the processes between phenotypic plasticity and population dynamics in migratory birds
This work highlights the critical role of the stopover stage of northward migration in the influence of migration tactics and population dynamics of migratory birds across the whole annual cycle. The authors also demonstrate the key processes linking individual migration tactics and population dynamics.

Asiatic black bears in Russia face conservation threats such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, which exacerbate food shortages caused by crop failures. This study explores an innovative approach to rehabilitating bears that abandon hibernation in mid‐winter due to extreme exhaustion by providing supplemental food near their den sites.

Habitat and spatial trends of U.K. wintering waterbird populations over 50 years
Abstract The United Kingdom is an important wintering ground for millions of waterbirds. Most U.K. wintering waterbird populations increased between 1970 and the mid‐1990s, but declined thereafter. We examined U.K. population indices in 46 wintering waterbird species in two 25‐year periods, 1970–1994 and 1995–2019, to identify which waterbird groups ...

Eimeria saudiensis represents a genus of apicomplexan parasites capable of inducing coccidiosis in Arabian oryx. Our research concentrated on the morphological and molecular investigation of Eimeria spp. in the captive oryx herd in Oman. The therapeutic and management practices employed at the Mammals Breeding Center were reassessed to diminish ...

Tracking with GPS and accelerometers shows that great evening bats in subtropical China use two overwintering strategies: some remain in continuous hibernation, while others switch between torpor and activity as temperatures change. This behavioral flexibility, shaped by climate, underscores the importance of protecting diverse roosting habitats for ...

Overreliance on Orthographic Similarity in L2‐Japanese Conceptual Processing by L1‐Chinese Learners
ABSTRACT Orthographic and phonological similarities between first (L1) and second (L2) languages can facilitate L2 processing. Particularly, L1‐Chinese learners of L2‐Japanese can benefit from the shared morphosyllabic Chinese characters (Japanese kanji/Chinese hanzi) because of their similar orthographies.

Urbanization may alter bird foraging. Austral Parakeets (Enicognathus ferrugineus) in Patagonia rely on introduced plants in urban areas, especially in winter, despite preferring natives in the wild. This seasonal reliance on introduced species highlights urbanization trade‐offs and underscores the need to manage green areas with native plants to ...
