Cicada as a food for mammals: a global review and implications for mammal behaviour and populations
Cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) are among the most important insect prey for many vertebrate predators, including birds and mammals, owing to their large size and high nutritional value. Although the ecological roles of cicadas as prey for birds have been well documented, the interactions between mammals and cicadas are relatively unknown.

After decades of dramatic reductions in their populations, Italian wolves have begun recolonizing parts of their historic range. This growth in populations can lead to potential conflicts with human activities, which remain the main cause of wolf mortality.

DNA metabarcoding reveals wolf dietary patterns in the northern Alps and Jura Mountains
Understanding predator–prey interactions is crucial for wildlife management and human–wildlife coexistence, particularly in multi‐use landscapes such as western Europe. As wolves Canis lupus recolonize their former habitats, knowledge of their diet is essential for conservation, management and public acceptance.

Sperm Motility after the Addition of Prostaglandin F2α to the Landrace Boar Diluted Semen
Prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) has been used to improve reproductive performance in swine. The objective of this study was to investigated whether the sperm motility from Landrace boars improves when PGF2α (Dinolytic®; 5 mg PGF2α /ml) was added to diluted ...

Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus

This study establishes the optimal nonlethal laser deterrence range (210–260 W, 1s) for wild boars, preventing agricultural damage while ensuring animal safety. Results demonstrate that efficacy requires seasonal power adjustments (≤ 285 W in winter) and precise targeting control—enabling effective, injury‐free wildlife conflict mitigation.
