Using radiotelemetry, we found that the movement and home range of the endangered Sacalia bealei varied significantly across reproductive classes and seasons, with males exhibiting greater movement than females during wet and mating seasons. The species exhibits strong aquatic dependence, favoring deep pools interspaced among riffle‐pool sequences ...

We used spatially explicit capture‐recapture to estimate jaguar densities in a private reserve in the Colombian Llanos and quantified land cover change in and around the reserve from 2014 to 2024. Densities increased 22% since 2014, while disturbed land cover increased by 39%–54% around the reserve depending on buffer distance. Our study indicates that

Perceived costs as drivers of wildlife management preferences in rural Tanzanian communities
Abstract Effectively managing human–wildlife interactions is crucial for fostering coexistence on shared landscapes. Management options are most effective when aligned with the preferences of people directly affected by wildlife, yet little is known about how socioecological factors influence these preferences.

Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

Taxonomic and functional diversity of urban bees of the world
Abstract Bees play a pivotal role in terrestrial environments. Urbanization can affect these organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. However, knowledge of the global diversity of urban bees is limited. Thus, we summarized data on urban bee species identities and occurrences; compared distributions of all bees with those found in urban ...

Abstract Knowledge of species distributions is essential for informing policies on nature conservation and restoration. However, updating them on a regular basis and doing so in a harmonized manner at the international level is difficult. The European Bird Census Council integrated national monitoring data covering 5 years to update farmland bird ...

Assessing differences among elasmobranch nurseries to aid conservation based on a genomics framework
Abstract Elasmobranch nurseries often differ in environmental conditions, demographics, and use patterns. These differences affect the distribution of genetic variation among nurseries. However, conservation and management strategies often fail to account for such differences because they are difficult to characterize.

Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature

Evaluating the use of taxonomy in the IUCN Red List
Abstract Taxonomy defines the units that conservationists strive to preserve for future generations. However, the discovery of new species and the taxonomic revision of existing species affect conservation efforts. Despite the importance of taxonomy for a species’ conservation, there is currently no overview of how those leading species extinction risk

一、国外保护野生动物的立法为了保护野生动物,世界上许多国家制定了保护野生动物的综合性法律,如:罗马尼亚、蒙古、联邦德国颁布“狩猎法”,苏联颁布“动物界保护和利用法”,泰国颁布“野生动物保存保护法”,匈牙利颁布“森林和野生动物法”,日本颁布“鸟兽保护和狩猎法”,澳大利亚颁布“国家公园和野生动物法”。有的国家还制定了一部分野生动物或特定野生动物的专门法律,如:美国制定有“濒危物种法”,“海洋哺乳动物保护法”、“迁徙鸟类保护法”、“海豹保护法”、“鲸类保护法”、“秃鹰和金鹰保护法”,澳大利亚制定“鲸类保护法”
