Cardiovascular Plasticity and Adaptation of High‐Altitude Birds and Mammals

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This schematic depicts the cardiovascular adaptations of mammals and birds to high‐altitude hypoxia. It highlights key phenotypic changes in oxygen transport and cardiac responses, driven by molecular mechanisms including transcriptional regulation and genetic modifications.

Body Size Regulates Niche Overlap Asymmetry in the Subtropical Andes Rain Shadow: Isotopic Paleoecology of Oligocene South American Ungulates

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

Cenozoic Tectonics Ignite Mitochondrial Codon Innovations Propelling Canid Body Size Evolution and Transcontinental Radiations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

RAPID: Real‐time animal pattern re‐identification on edge devices, an open‐source tool for field deployment

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Automatic re‐identification of animals has significant potential to address pressing ecological and conservation challenges through improved population monitoring, individual health assessment and detailed behavioural analyses. Although numerous computer‐vision‐based solutions have been proposed and many achieve high accuracy, most remain ...

Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...
