Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Drones and computer vision offer an efficient way to estimate animal populations over localized areas, but surveys often require stitching many overlapping images together. If animals move during the survey, traditional orthomosaic‐based counting methods become unreliable, with some animals appearing in multiple locations while others appear not at all,

Small‐Scale Magnetic Soft Robots for Medical Applications: From Laboratory to Clinical Use
SmartBot, EarlyView.Small‐scale magnetic soft robots are emerging as promising platforms for minimally invasive diagnosis and therapy in complex in vivo environments. This review compares untethered and tethered medical magnetic robots in parallel across five translational stages, from basic performance testing to clinical evaluation.

Tail wagging cats: Veterinary implications of AI‐generated video
Veterinary Record, EarlyView.Abstract Background Generative artificial intelligence (genAI) has the capacity to create realistic and convincing animal videos; however, it must simplify and reduce behavioural variation to do so, possibly leading to misinformation. Methods We categorised 29 videos in the press release for a specific video genAI engine. Twelve featured animals.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Ever‐growing human activities present an active and continuing threat to many species throughout the world. Nevertheless, concerted conservation efforts in some regions have balanced these threats and allowed endangered species to recolonise former parts of their original ranges and reverse their decline.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.One of the most difficult challenges for wildlife managers is reliably estimating wildlife populations. Camera traps combined with spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models are a popular tool for population estimation. They have limitations, however, including long data processing times.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Rehabilitation and release contribute to conservation efforts for threatened species. Ensuring that these efforts are effective requires a good understanding of the factors which determine survival and integration of released animals into wild populations.
