Social information about others' affective states in a human‐altered world
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Faced with anthropogenic change, animals now encounter challenges different from their evolutionary past. To cope with such challenges, animals may use social information about others' affective states to guide their decisions. Considering affective states of wild animals could have important implications for animal welfare and wildlife conservation ...

Studia Ecologiae et BioethicaeThe public awareness of the grey wolf (Canis lupus) is shaped by various messages. Among these, undoubtedly the most influential are those related to repeated stereotypes, often based on unverified sources or even misinformation.

Cardiovascular Plasticity and Adaptation of High‐Altitude Birds and Mammals
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This schematic depicts the cardiovascular adaptations of mammals and birds to high‐altitude hypoxia. It highlights key phenotypic changes in oxygen transport and cardiac responses, driven by molecular mechanisms including transcriptional regulation and genetic modifications.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Assessing drivers of population dynamics helps to mitigate human–wildlife conflicts. In Mediterranean areas, summer aridity reduces resources, potentially affecting ungulates' body condition and reproduction. In a mixed forested‐rural area, wild boar female body mass increased throughout summer in rainy‐mild years and decreased in hot‐dry years.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Social rank in greater long‐tailed hamsters (Tscherskia triton) shapes gut microbiota composition and metabolite profiles. Dominant males exhibit a “high‐vigilance, metabolically activated” phenotype, with elevated aggression and specific gut microbiota enriched in energy‐harvesting taxa and fecal queuine.

Temporal Responses to Warming: Do Wild Herbivores Trade Off Heat, Predators, and Humans?
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We untangled how summer temperature, predators, and humans influenced behavioral responses in two deer species. Both reduced their daily activity level in response to warming, yet only roe deer increased nocturnality to avoid heat. Conversely, fallow deer traded off heat avoidance with predator avoidance.

Genetisk opphav til den norsksvenske ulvestammen (Canis lupus lupus)
, 2021 Den genetiske opprinnelsen til den norsk-svenske ulvebestanden har vært debattert helt siden den tilsynelatende ble reetablert på 1980-tallet. Det er stilt spørsmål om bestanden kan være nedstammet fra andre ulver enn de som hører hjemme i dagens Fennoskandia, og i hvilken grad den bærer på arvemateriale fra hund som følge av hybridisering.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.The graphical abstract illustrates the comprehensive workflow of our study, from the deployment of infrared cameras at sites with high activity of four large carnivores, through data collection and assessment of activity patterns, to the prediction of time periods with potential human–large carnivore conflicts and the proposal of corresponding ...
