Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Investigating the ultimate factors that underpin the impacts of ski‐pistes on alpine species is crucial to identify concrete mitigation strategies. This is urgently needed given that winter sports are expanding in mountain ranges worldwide. We evaluated the impacts of ski‐pistes on the foraging behaviour of the white‐winged snowfinch, an iconic alpine ...

Strategies, costs and counter‐strategies to sexual coercion
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sexual conflict, the conflict between the evolutionary interests of females and males over mating, occasionally results in the evolution of traits favourable for one sex and adverse for the other. In this context, males can use sexual coercion to increase their mating success, at the expense of their female targets' mate choice.
