Introduced mona monkey Cercopithecus mona is a key predator of bird nests in the endemic‐rich Príncipe Island

Conservation Science and Practice
Bird communities in oceanic islands tend to evolve under reduced predation, making them extremely susceptible to introduced predators. Príncipe Island (São Tomé and Príncipe, Central Africa) harbors 11 endemic bird species and eight introduced mammal ...

Testing Artificial Turtle Nests as Predator Misinformation Cues

Nest predation is one of many factors that contribute to population declines in turtles, a globally imperiled taxon. Nest predation negatively affects juvenile recruitment; thus there is increasing interest in understanding predictors of turtle nest ...

Mitigating Fox Predation on Freshwater Turtle Nests: Comparing Effectiveness of Three In Situ Protection Methods

Ecology and Evolution
Freshwater turtles in the Murray‐Darling Basin (MDB), Australia, have declined since the 1970s. Intense nest predation by introduced foxes likely contributes to these declines, disrupting juvenile recruitment needed to sustain populations.

Beginnings, non-nests: mud and leaf.

, 2004
The Data Set records various types of non-nest. Some are recoded as nests later in the season, others are never developed, and many are bizarre (e.g., sealed empty mud cells, often single sometimes multiple)
