The American Black Bear (Ursus americanus) as an Apex Predator: Investigating the Ecological Role of the World's Most Abundant Large Carnivore

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
Black bears as apex predators. American black bears can (1) produce top‐down effects on ungulates equal to or exceeding those of typical apex predators and (2) modify the spatiotemporal behaviour of other carnivores, including pumas and coyotes. We argue that the term ‘apex predator’ is highly context dependent and not a species‐wide status.

Patterns and Determinants of Mortality in Grey Wolves (Canis lupus)

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
This systematic review reveals the global patterns and drivers of grey wolf mortality, highlighting the high mortality risk associated with human coexistence for this cursorial carnivore, and reshaping previous knowledge to guide management and conservation strategies.

A Global Comparison of Common Approaches for Tracing Carnivore Diet

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
Many researchers are faced with the decision of how to quantify terrestrial carnivore diets. By synthesising studies that compared multiple approaches, we show that each approach has strengths and weaknesses, both for dietary inference and across other dimensions that researchers should consider.

COVER PHOTO: Hybridization between coyotes (Canis latrans) and red wolves (Canis rufus) during the mid‐20th century produced novel phenotypic traits in the Gulf Coast canid population of southwestern Louisiana, USA, facilitating the emergence of a wetland‐adapted coyote shaped by red wolf introgression and coastal environmental pressures.
