Community attitudes towards Amur tigers (Panthera tigris altaica) and their prey species in Yanbian, Jilin province, a region of northeast China where tigers are returning.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Community attitudes towards large carnivores are of central importance to their conservation in human-dominated landscapes. In this study, we evaluate community attitudes and perceptions towards the Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica), Amur leopard ...

A decade under lens: Characterizing wildlife mortality from disease and infection in Chitwan National Park, Nepal

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Mortality and health issues are becoming an emerging issue in the conservation and management of wildlife populations. Understanding the causes of mortality is necessary for proper management of wildlife and habitats. To address this, a mixed approach was employed: we conducted a longitudinal analysis of a decade (2010–2019) of observed ...

Resource Partitioning and Density Drivers of Two Endangered Large Felids: Amur Tiger (Panthera Tigris Altaica) and Amur Leopard (Panthera Pardus Orientalis) In the Russian Far East [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In Russia, long-term conservation interventions have bolstered the critically endangered Amur leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis) as well as their dominant competitor, the endangered Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica).

Behavioral and Historical Processes Jointly Maintain Genetic Connectivity in Fragmented Chinese Water Deer Populations

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We challenge a major paradigm in mammalian ecology by demonstrating female‐biased dispersal in an artiodactyl, the endangered Chinese water deer. This key behavioral mechanism drives high gene flow across a fragmented landscape, effectively creating a genetic rescue effect that maintains population connectivity and counters inbreeding. ABSTRACT Habitat

Rebreeding of Female Mountain Lions After Litter Mortality

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We documented rapid rebreeding by female mountain lions (Puma concolor) following litter loss, including the shortest known rebreeding interval to date. These observations highlight the importance of infanticide and intraguild competition in shaping female fitness and population dynamics.

Assessment of High Throughput Sequencing Quality of Host DNA Enriched From Faeces: A Case From Captive Tiger

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Faeces serve as a widely used non‐invasive material in wildlife studies, from which host DNA can be enriched for high‐throughput sequencing. However, the characteristics of faecal DNA sequencing, particularly the relationship between sequencing volume and genotyping accuracy or genomic coverage, have remained unclear.

Risky business: red foxes killed when scavenging from snow leopard kills [Elektronisk resurs]

open access: yes, 2022
Scavenging of foods is a common but potentially dangerous behavior that exposes animals to risk of injury and even death from other animals. Here we report on two observations of red foxes that were killed when scavenging from snow leopard kills that ...
