In barn swallows, nestlings raised in larger broods or by older social fathers have shorter telomeres, and those with longer telomeres tend to live longer, suggesting that early‐life conditions may shape individual lifespan through telomere dynamics. ABSTRACT Parental decisions on breeding, such as brood size and timing of reproduction, influence the ...

Life Under the Snow: Camera Trap Videos Capture Year‐Round Lemming Activity and Behavior
We developed an automated camera system capable of recording year‐round videos of lemmings beneath the snow in the High Arctic. We demonstrate the potential of this system to document lemming activity and behaviors. Our results show that it effectively monitors lemming relative abundance with temporal precision unmatched by other methods.

We developed LeoNet, a lightweight deep learning model for leopard individual identification. It achieved 97.42% accuracy and was robust to age‐related pattern changes and unfamiliar individuals. Applied to camera‐trap data from the Taihang Mountains, LeoNet identified 41 wild North China leopards and generated individual‐level records to support ...

Urban Environments Impact Parasite Diversity and an Antipredator Response in an Amphibian Model
Urbanization reshapes parasite–host interactions in the amphibian Pelophylax perezi, increasing blood parasite diversity and Lankesterella loads under higher anthropogenic pressure. Urban frogs also show longer flight initiation distances and tibiofibulae, indicating altered antipredator strategies.

Behavior‐Based Rodent Management: Mechanisms, Challenges, and Opportunities
Management of rodent pests often relies upon their decisions about whether or not to interact with management tools such as baits and traps. These decisions are shaped by behavioral motivations that can vary with environmental context, over time, and between individuals, which provide both challenges and opportunities for control.
