Spatiotemporal walking gait kinematics of semi‐arboreal red pandas (Ailurus fulgens)
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 339, Issue 8, Page 755-766, October 1, 2023., 2023 While footfall patterns are consistent across arboreal and terrestrial locomotion, flexibility in other kinematic variables allow semi‐arboreal red pandas to navigate disparate biomechanical challenges inherent to arboreal versus terrestrial locomotion.

Tails in Action: Comparative Use of the Prehensile Tail and Substrate in Alouatta macconnelli, Sapajus apella, and Potos flavus. [PDF]
Am J PrimatolBarplot representing the frequencies (percentages) of positional behaviors in relation to tail use for Alouatta macconnelli (left), Potos flavus (middle), and Sapajus apella (right). For each species, the left barplot represents all positional behaviors, the middle one postural behaviors, and the right one locomotor behaviors.

Form, function and evolution of the human hand
American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 181, Issue S76, Page 6-57, August 2023., 2023 Abstract The modern human hand is an intriguing mix of primitive morphology and derived function. Traditionally, its form and function are explained as a functional “trade‐off” between the requirements of locomotion and manipulation, but recently acquired comparative, experimental and fossil evidence suggests that this functional trade‐off is more ...

Tropical forest loss impoverishes arboreal mammal assemblages by increasing tree canopy openness
Ecological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Landscape‐scale deforestation poses a major threat to global biodiversity, not only because it limits habitat availability, but also because it can drive the degradation of the remaining habitat. However, the multiple pathways by which deforestation directly and indirectly affects wildlife remain poorly understood, especially for elusive ...

Integrative Zoology, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 15-26, January 2023., 2023 We investigated the UV‐induced photoluminescence of the fur of 23 species of monotremes, marsupial, and placental mammals. We used emission and excitation spectroscopy as well as multispectral imaging to detect, characterize, and map the chemical compounds responsible for the reddish photoluminescence.

Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2023 Private conservation areas (PCA) are a complementary resource that can be used to favor the conservation of mammals in tropical regions of the world. However, their reduced extent can exert a differential influence on the behavior of the species present,

Global Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 23, Page 6992-7008, December 2022., 2022 We combined trait‐based and correlative approaches to assign risks to species, taxonomic orders, and functional groups of terrestrial mammals in Mexico, under climate change (CC) and land‐use/cover change (LUCC) scenarios. Risk scores were obtained as a function of vulnerability, exposure, and hazard, using the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
