Livestock abundance predicts vampire bat demography, immune profiles, and bacterial infection risk [PDF]

, 2018
Human activities create novel food resources that can alter wildlife–pathogen interactions. If resources amplify or dampen, pathogen transmission probably depends on both host ecology and pathogen biology, but studies that measure responses to ...

Cascading Effects of Overhunting on the Functional Tree Composition of Amazonian Forests

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
We examined how overhunting‐induced defaunation affects the functional composition of tropical tree communities in western Brazilian Amazonia. Using a robust, spatially replicated dataset from 30 forest plots across a well‐defined gradient of hunting pressure, we assessed the impacts of vertebrate depletion on plant recruitment patterns, dispersal ...

Deriving the functional significance of olfaction in a solitary non‐territorial herbivore: The bare‐nosed wombat Vombatus ursinus

Journal of Zoology, Volume 327, Issue 4, Page 386-397, December 2025.
We investigated communication in the bare‐nosed wombat (Vombatus ursinus), which is distinctive for depositing its cube‐shaped scats in latrines. We found that bare‐nosed wombats possess a vomeronasal organ for olfactory signal reception, associate their latrines with features in their landscape (particularly rocks, logs, and burrow entrances), have ...

Effect of free-ranging cattle on mammalian diversity: an Austral Yungas case study [PDF]

, 2022
Extensive cattle ranging is an important economic activity in mountains, with diverse effects on native mammal communities. The effects of cattle Bos taurus can be negative, positive or neutral, mostly depending on the stocking rate.
