Differentiating Climate Efficiency in Agrifood Systems: A Stylised Simulation Model With Carbon Opportunity Costs

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The agrifood system generates around one‐third of global greenhouse gas emissions, driven by land use and land‐use change. Existing policy assessments focus on net emissions changes, overlooking efficiency losses within market dynamics and the carbon sequestration potential of land.

Suitable habitat of Himalayan wolf in Upper Mustang, Annapurna Conservation Area, Nepal

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Decades ago, the Himalayan wolf Canis lupus chanco, a genetically distinct sub‐species of the gray wolf Canis lupus, faced persecution by local communities in the Nepalese Himalayas. Recently, wolf populations have returned and recolonized, sparking concerns about conflicts over livestock depredation, and emphasizing the urgent need for comprehensive ...

Habitat selection of moose in Sweden in managed boreal forests with Pinus contorta and P. sylvestris

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Human land use can take advantage of using exotic species to increase financial benefits. However, the use of exotic tree species might affect ecosystem functioning, potentially including the habitat use and movement behaviour of animals, modifying their ecological impact, and interactions with human land use.

Road mortality mitigation for red wolves requires a landscape approach

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
In 1980, the red wolf Canis rufus was declared extinct in the wild. However, starting in 1987, a captive breeding program allowed for a reintroduction effort in and around Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge (Alligator River NWR), North Carolina, USA. In 2012 the wild red wolf population peaked at about 120 individuals.

Winter severity and hunter observations of fawn:doe ratios predict antlered white‐tailed deer harvest success

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Accurate forecasts of white‐tailed deer Odocoileus virginianus harvest success are important for managing hunter expectations to promote continued participation in recreational harvest. From 2006 to 2024, we assessed whether annual antlered deer harvest success could be estimated using proxies for deer survival (winter severity) and recruitment (hunter

Adjusting Our Thinking About Feeding Animals: Fiber as the Metric for Mimicking Natural Diets

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
A typical effect of the change of an animal group to a diet higher in fiber: juveniles keep growing, animals of ideal body weight maintain their weight, and obese individuals lose weight. ABSTRACT Free‐ranging animals often ingest markedly different diets than their counterparts under human care, whether companion animals, production animals, or zoo ...
