ABSTRACT Once‐common beavers have been absent from the British landscape for centuries, but wild beaver populations have returned in recent years as part of reintroduction schemes, including releases into monitored enclosures. In North Yorkshire, such a release of Eurasian beavers took place in 2019.

Over the last 150 years, most large, easily accessible lakes and tarns in Aotearoa (New Zealand) have experienced trout introductions or incursions, leaving few salmonid‐free reference lakes. Using database information and field surveys, we characterized lake, pond/tarn, and wetland systems found throughout Aotearoa that support populations of kōaro ...

The romantic image of luxury tourism in Caribbean, Indian Ocean, and pacific islands make you often dream and attracts for many years a high profile customer. Would the expenses incurred by the visitors lead to a positive impacts on economic growth? What

For several decades, the assumption that Aotearoa New Zealand freshwater eels spawn near Tonga (for longfin, Anguilla dieffenbachii) or east of Samoa (for shortfin, A. australis) has been widely repeated across scientific literature, governmental reports, public resources and community narratives, despite limited direct evidence.

A shift in the trade? An investigation of the eel trade reveals a likely species switch
Anguillid eels have seen precipitous declines in their population sizes. Because of these declines, a number are currently designated as Endangered, Critically Endangered, or are listed on Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species Appendix ...

Confidence intervals for extinction risk: Validating population viability analysis with limited data
Abstract The assessment of extinction risk remains a key component of IUCN and CITES evaluations. However, it has been argued that, under realistic data limitations, confidence intervals (CIs) for extinction probability often span the entire 0–1 range, rendering such assessments meaningless.

A new acoustic telemetry tag that identifies carrier mortality by monitoring activity level
Abstract We present a new acoustic telemetry tag capable of detecting whether its carrier stops moving for long enough to presume the organism has died, and of reporting the time elapsed since movement ceased. The tag uses existing environmental sensor technology together with an algorithm with user‐specifiable thresholds, and importantly, can separate

ABSTRACT The current diversity and distribution of species and populations have been shaped by the major climatic oscillations during the Quaternary. The brown trout (Salmo trutta) is a striking example of the strong effect of past climate changes on the evolutionary history of species, in fact, the alternation of glacial/interglacial cycles has led to
