Comparative foraging ecology of lynx and coyotes in three Gulf of Alaska national parks
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Consumers exhibit varying degrees of dietary specialization, with foraging strategies shaped by both evolutionary history and local food availability. In boreal systems, Canada lynx are considered snowshoe hare specialists, whereas coyotes are classically generalist foragers capable of exploiting diverse resources.

Human impacts on mammals in and around a protected area before, during, and after COVID‐19 lockdowns
Conservation Science and Practice, 2022 The dual mandate for many protected areas (PAs) to simultaneously promote recreation and conserve biodiversity may be hampered by negative effects of recreation on wildlife. However, reports of these effects are not consistent, presenting a knowledge gap

Understanding mammal avoidance of human settlements
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1504-1517, August 2026.Terrestrial mammals often avoid human settlements, but is this a result of human activity around buildings or the built infrastructure per se? Using data on animal movement before and during the COVID‐19 lockdowns, this paper disentangles these effects, showing how changes in human mobility affect animals' avoidance of buildings. Abstract Anthropogenic

Tracking cats: problems with placing feline carnivores on δO, δD isoscapes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Several felids are endangered and threatened by the illegal wildlife trade. Establishing geographic origin of tissues of endangered species is thus crucial for wildlife crime investigations and effective conservation strategies. As shown in other species,

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2510-2523, August 2026.Abstract Ecologists are adapting structural causal modelling for spatial, phylogenetic and time‐series analysis. However, ecological extensions of path analysis and structural equation models (SEM) typically assume that interactions among variables are stationary, linear and additive, while ecological and evolutionary dynamics are often nonstationary ...

Are pumas subordinate carnivores, and does it matter? [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background Interspecific competition affects species fitness, community assemblages and structure, and the geographic distributions of species. Established dominance hierarchies among species mitigate the need for fighting and contribute to the realized ...

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Contemporary conservation goals have a greater chance of success when practitioners collaborate with Indigenous communities. The importance of such collaborations has spurred calls by Western and Indigenous researchers to engage in equitable coproduction of ecological research that integrates multiple ways of knowing.

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.Translocations are increasingly used for species recovery but are often performed without considering how such actions will impact both recipient and source populations. Herein, we designed an analytical decision‐making framework and applied it to identify suitable translocation programs that promote population viability of both source and recipient ...

A Bifunctional T3SS‐Effector Simultaneously Cleaves Host MAP Kinase and Inhibits PPM1A Phosphatase
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 37, 3 July 2026.Pathogenic bacteria exploit the metalloprotease effector NleD to subvert host defenses. Structural, biochemical, and infection analyses reveal a bifunctional mechanism by which NleD binds and inhibits the host phosphatase PPM1A while preserving its proteolytic activity against MAPKs.
