Between conflict and coexistence: Wildlife in rubber‐dominated landscapes 冲突与共存之间:橡胶林主导景观中的野生动物
Natural habitat loss forces some wildlife species to increasingly extend their habitats into farmlands. Rubber‐dominated landscapes surrounding protected areas have the potential to facilitate coexistence between people and some wildlife species if young plants are better protected and plantation management is made more wildlife‐friendly.

Livestock disturbances decreased the area of suitable habitat of forest pheasants by 14.28% in 7 years. Livestock activities remarkably increased the nest failure rate (by 2.18 times) of forest pheasants. Abstract The degradation and fragmentation of natural habitats, driven largely by anthropogenic activities such as grazing, represent growing ...

Use of carrion fly iDNA metabarcoding to monitor invasive and native mammals
Abstract Severely fragmented habitats increase the risk of extirpation of native mammal populations through isolation, increased edge effects, and predation. Therefore, monitoring the movement of mammal populations through anthropogenically altered landscapes can inform conservation. We used metabarcoding of invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA) from carrion

The objective of this study is to characterise ecological connectivity for mammals and identify important patches and linkages for connecting urban green spaces for Greater Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Our results demonstrate the potential for Southeast Asian megacities to support biodiversity in the urban context, and the potential for a different kind of ...

Time‐lagged effects of habitat fragmentation on terrestrial mammals in Madagascar
Abstract Biodiversity is severely threatened by habitat destruction. As a consequence of habitat destruction, the remaining habitat becomes more fragmented. This results in time‐lagged population extirpations in remaining fragments when these are too small to support populations in the long term.

Abstract The IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Red List categories and criteria are the most widely used framework for assessing the relative extinction risk of species. The criteria are based on quantitative thresholds relating to the size, trends, and structure of species’ distributions and populations.

Priority areas for conservation of Old World vultures
Abstract The prosperity and well‐being of human societies relies on healthy ecosystems and the services they provide. However, the biodiversity crisis is undermining ecosystems services and functions. Vultures are among the most imperiled taxonomic groups on Earth, yet they have a fundamental ecosystem function.

ABSTRACT The efficacy of immunotherapy in triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) is often limited, whereas the immunotherapeutic potential of pyroptosis is frequently undermined by a compensatory surge in mitophagy. To address this challenge, this study developed a reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐responsive and mitochondria‐targeted nanomicelle (POM@CTT ...

Impacts of Human Development on Wildlife Use of Corridors in Botswana 人类开发对博茨瓦纳野生动物廊道利用的影响
This study examined the effect of landscape‐scale human impact on wildlife in Botswana. We examined how species use wildlife corridors in two different human‐dominated landscapes. We identified differences in temporal overlap between wildlife and humans across both landscapes, which is fundamental to consider in both current and future conservation ...

The edge densities of cropland, developed land, and water bodies (panel a) predict the spatial probability of mammalian predation on wild turkeys (panel b) using Mahalanobis distance factor analysis in Quitman County, Mississippi, United States. The three habitat fragmentation variables are represented by three arrows, respectively.
