Not just ‘super‐predators': human behaviour shapes wildlife behavioural responses across avoidance, tolerance and attraction

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Humans are thought to have a disproportionately negative impact on wildlife and are viewed by some as the ultimate ‘super predator'. This view implies that wild animals perceive humans primarily as predators. However, a growing body of evidence shows that wildlife can have remarkable tolerance for, or even attraction to, humans.

A case of Streptococcus canis bacteremia, osteomyelitis, sacroiliitis, myositis, and abscess

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Key Points 1. S. canis does not require a clear portal of entry to cause infection 2. When S. canis infection is identified, screening for sites of metastatic infection should be considered 3. S.

A dwarf galaxy remnant in Canis Major: the fossil of an in-plane accretion onto the Milky Way

open access: yes, 2003
We present an analysis of the asymmetries in the population of Galactic M-giant stars present in the 2MASS All Sky catalogue. Several large-scale asymmetries are detected, the most significant of which is a strong elliptical-shaped stellar over-density ...

Accreted versus In Situ Milky Way Globular Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Here we examine the Milky Way's GC system to estimate the fraction of accreted versus in situ formed GCs. We first assemble a high quality database of ages and metallicities for 93 Milky Way GCs from literature deep colour-magnitude data.

Multiple scales of fear: foraging behaviour of white‐naped jays in semiarid landscapes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Animals must constantly balance the need to find resources with the risk of predation. Not only avoiding direct encounters with predators but also assessing the overall risk of their environment using cues, social information or habitat traits at multiple spatial and temporal scales.

Tissue distribution and cell tropism of Brucella canis in naturally infected canine foetuses and neonates

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Brucella canis infection is an underdiagnosed zoonotic disease. Knowledge about perinatal brucellosis in dogs is extremely limited, although foetuses and neonates are under risk of infection due to vertical transmission.

Trap‐dependence in capture–recapture studies: empirical evidence in vertebrates and biological meaning

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Capture–recapture (CR) models have been used for decades to estimate population size and demographic rates in natural populations from the monitoring of individuals. One of the most frequent deviations from assumptions required in CR studies is the immediate trap‐dependence that corresponds to the correlation between capture events. We review empirical
