Multi‐host cervid communities impacted by chronic wasting disease pose challenges for understanding exposure risk, especially during the mating season when male contact rates peak. Using camera traps at local infectious zones, we found that environmental interspecific exposure risk occurred almost exclusively at water tanks and scrape sites—reaching ...

Data‐free speculation does not make for testable hypotheses: A reply to Ripple et al.
The role of top predators in structuring ecosystems is receiving substantial attention from ecologists. Ripple et al. (2011) recently posed a tentatively supported hypothesis that wolves (Canis lupus) may help restore populations of the U.S.

Abstract Resource selection studies have become increasingly common since the advent of modern animal tracking equipment, yet most studies fail to examine how selection affects vital rates or population growth (i.e., fitness). Without investigating if optimal habitat selection is facilitated in a system, conservation efforts may promote ineffective ...

Canine Distemper Virus Research in China and Future Directions for Conservation 中国犬瘟热病毒研究现状与保护策略展望
ABSTRACT Canine distemper is a highly contagious, severe disease caused by the canine distemper virus (CDV). With a worldwide distribution and ever‐expanding list of susceptible hosts, CDV poses a growing risk for many threatened wildlife species, both in captivity and their native habitats. As a megadiverse country, China is home to myriad endemic and
