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.

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 ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.

Abstract Prioritization in conservation is crucial for the development of efficient and effective decision‐making policies. For many decades, the importance of some species and their habitats has been assessed and applied in conservation legislation, but bats and their diurnal roosts have ofbeen overlooked.

Differences in characteristics between naturalized threatened plants and other threatened plants
Abstract Many non‐native plant species introduced by humans have become naturalized. At the same time many species are threatened in their native range. However, the number of plant species threatened in their native range that are naturalized elsewhere remains unknown.

Abstract Despite the crucial role of human impacts on biodiversity loss, many assessments of this loss focus on single metrics, such as species richness, and overlook the multidimensional effects of human activities. Because of its importance to ecosystem functioning, we investigated the functional diversity of medium‐ and large‐sized mammal ...

Study on the construction of environmental education system in Futian Mangrove Nature Reserve [PDF]
环境教育是红树林自然保护区主要的功能之一,一些发达国家或者红树林保护开展较早的国家都在红树林湿地环境教育方面取得了很好的效果。在我国,从20世纪80年代中期以来,各省红树林自然保护区的环境教育已开展并取得了一定的成效,积累了一定的经验,对于红树林湿地知识的普及、环境保护意识的提高起到了重要的作用。随着红树林自然保护区的发展以及公众生态保护意识的提高,红树林自然保护区中的环境教育价值正在被社会广泛认可。 福田红树林自然保护区是以保护、研究、教育为目的而规划、建设和管理的特定区域 ...
