Large mammal recovery in the wake of human population decline

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Human depopulation, particularly in rural areas, has contributed to the recovery of some large mammal populations. While recovery is generally good news for conservation, it can also lead to human‐wildlife conflict. We present several avenues to maximize coexistence in the face of further rural depopulation in other places. Read the free Plain Language

So close yet so far: Movement patterns of livestock guarding dogs in a shared landscape in Romania

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April/June 2026.
We used GPS collars to track 36 livestock guarding dogs (LGDs) from 11 sheep flocks in the Romanian Carpathians to assess how closely they remained with their sheep and how often they roamed in a landscape shared with people and large carnivores. Overall, LGDs were attentive, typically staying within 100 m of sheep at night and 200 m during the day ...
