Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Many nocturnal animals are difficult to study because they are rarely seen, including nocturnal primates, galagos and pottos, in West Africa. Working with over 600 people in 52 villages in southern Guinea‐Bissau, we found that communities frequently recognized galagos by their red eyeshine and distinctive calls, while pottos were not known.

DHA营养强化鸡蛋研究进展Research progress on DHA fortified eggs
Zhongguo youzhi, 2023 DHA能有效促进大脑发育、改善视力、预防心血管系统疾病等，但其在人体内的生成量不能满足需求，需要靠食物获得。开发DHA营养强化鸡蛋，可以为人们获取足量、廉价、优质的DHA提供有效途径。为了加强对DHA营养强化鸡蛋的研发，推动其进一步发展，从DHA的生理功能视角出发，分析了DHA营养强化鸡蛋开发优势、饲料脂肪酸对鸡蛋中DHA的调控机制，阐述了DHA营养强化鸡蛋的脂质组成、饲料中DHA的来源及鸡蛋中DHA的稳定性。富含DHA的日粮可生产富集DHA的鸡蛋，且蛋黄中的DHA具有较高的稳定性 ...

Using customs data to understand overlooked trade in non‐CITES birds between Africa and Asia
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The international trade in live birds poses risks to animals, people, and biodiversity. To effectively mitigate these risks, decision‐makers require information on the volume, dynamics, and direction of trade. Despite Africa once being the largest exporter of birds by region, very little data exist on recent trade in live birds not listed on ...

Evaluating synthetic substitutes to reduce illegal harvesting and support species recovery
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Providing synthetic substitutes is a widely promoted strategy to shift consumer demand away from wildlife products derived from threatened species. Yet, there is little evidence on whether product substitution prevents illegal or unsustainable harvesting and contributes to the recovery of threatened populations.

Assessing differences among elasmobranch nurseries to aid conservation based on a genomics framework
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.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
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.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

Insights for conservation from the Ecological Knowledge Games project
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Environmental conservation research requires robust methods for collecting large‐scale behavioral data and engaging diverse stakeholders in decision‐making processes. We (Y.P., A.B.D., and N.B.) created EcoKnowGames (Ecological Knowledge Games), a transdisciplinary project that develops knowledge games for conservation science and data ...

Habitat and spatial trends of U.K. wintering waterbird populations over 50 years
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.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 ...

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) are used to assess the abiotic preferences of species by linking their occurrences to the environmental conditions in which they live. We developed a fossil‐informed ENM framework that integrates mid‐Holocene and modern occurrences to test niche stability and reconstruct abiotic niche characteristics for four ...
