ABSTRACT The golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) nests in rock cavities where it accumulates prey bone remains during the breeding season. Because nests can be reoccupied from year to year, these faunal elements can form remarkable bone accumulations and, in the sub‐fossil record, be mixed with assemblages derived from human or other predator activities ...

Optimized heterologous in vitro fertilization with Iberian ibex sperm and domestic goat oocytes
Assisted reproductive technologies are key to maintain genetic stocks of endangered wild species, such as the Iberian ibex (Capra pyrenaica). Due to the low availability of ibex ovaries, heterologous in vitro fertilization (IVF) with domestic goat (Capra

ABSTRACT The Cova Eirós archaeopaleontological site preserves the most comprehensive archaeostratigraphic sequence in the northwestern Iberian Peninsula, with an exceptionally rich record spanning from the Mousterian to the Upper Paleolithic. The extensive fragmentation of the faunal record and the rich taxonomic diversity at this site have limited the

Large mammal recovery in the wake of human population decline
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

Filogenia y evolución local de la cabra montés (Capra pyrenaica) en el yacimiento Cuaternario de Chaves (Huesca, España) [PDF]
La cabra montesa ibérica (Capra pyrenaica, Schinz 1838) es un endemismo de la Península Ibérica que en los últimos siglos ha sufrido la pérdida de dos de sus cuatro subespecies (C .pyrenaica pyrenaica y C.

Elevation, rather than land use, causes important dietary shifts in the Mediterranean golden eagle
In an ever‐changing landscape, golden eagles in the Iberian Peninsula demonstrate remarkable dietary adaptability. We monitored 50 distinct breeding events over 4 years using camera traps, collecting over 520 000 images. Elevation, rather than land use, emerged as the main driver of prey composition: lagomorphs and columbiforms dominated at lower ...

Home Range and Habitat Selection of Chamois: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
A systematic review of 22 studies reveals a research bias toward the Alpine chamois, leaving other subspecies understudied. Males occupy larger home ranges, and the species consistently selects steep, high‐elevation terrain while avoiding snow‐covered areas and human disturbance.

Challenges and opportunities in mitigating sarcoptic mange in wild South American camelids
Wild South American camelids—vicuña and guanaco—face threats from sarcoptic mange, a contagious skin disease linked to severe population declines. Despite its impact, major gaps remain in understanding disease dynamics. This review summarizes current knowledge, identifies key data and management gaps, and outlines urgent actions for effective ...

Grazing and climate interact to regulate greening trends in Mediterranean grasslands
Our results show that traditional grazing systems can maintain grassland stability without causing degradation, but they can also increase the ecosystem's vulnerability to climate change. We provide clear evidence that GPS‐based livestock monitoring is a powerful and scalable tool for sustainable rangeland management.
