Artificial supplementary food influences hedgehog occupancy and activity patterns more than predator presence or natural food availability

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Supplementary feeding for declining hedgehog Erinaceus europaeus populations is popular in Great Britain and has been suggested as an important factor in explaining higher densities in urban areas compared with rural ones. Occupancy modelling was used to test whether spatial variation in supplementary feeding, natural food, habitat, or predator ...

Pickin' up good vibrations: a systematic review of footfall detection and analysis in the realm of wildlife surveying

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

Mammalian herbivory indirectly shapes savanna arthropod communities but only at very low or high levels

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study investigates how large mammalian herbivores shape arthropod communities in African savannas, using a broad gradient of herbivory types and intensities to assess these effects under real‐world, non‐experimental conditions. Abstract Savanna ecosystems support unique biodiversity and provide livelihoods for millions of people.

Spatial overlap and temporal synchrony between guilds of insect hosts and parasitoids

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study identified a spatial overlap between insect host guild richness and parasitoid richness. Species richness in parasitoid guilds always increased later in the season than richness of their host guilds. These findings suggest that shifts in climate and land‐use may alter the synchrony of insect trophic layers.
