Thermal performance curves, activity and survival in a free‐ranging ectotherm
We show higher field‐measured locomotor performance increases mortality risk in free‐ranging lizards, challenging assumptions from laboratory‐based thermal performance studies. Our approach combines in situ physiology with survival data, offering new insights into behavioural trade‐offs and fitness under natural conditions.

Asian elephants are associated with a more robust mammalian community in tropical forests
It's the first evidence that Asian elephants are positively associated with robustness of mammalian networks, increases ungulate/primate abundances and minimally disrupts activity patterns. Highlights elephants' overlooked role as keystone architects beyond vegetation engineering, urging conservation prioritization to safeguard ecosystem resilience ...

Avian blood parasites are widespread and often considered benign, yet mounting evidence suggests they subtly impair host traits. This meta‐analysis is timely and necessary to quantify their true impact across systems, challenging assumptions and highlighting overlooked consequences for fitness and population dynamics. Abstract Stressors that subtly yet

In European animal welfare inspection on farms and at slaughter, inspectors encounter moral challenges that reveal the paradox at the heart of animal welfare. Against the harsh realities of industrial agriculture, not only are their idealized notions of animal wellbeing unrealizable, but inspectors are instrumental in perpetuating standards of welfare ...

Abstract The goal of this research is to understand the spaces Dharavi's inhabitants require to sustain existing socioeconomic systems and how future redevelopment in the area can facilitate their inclusion. In India, livelihoods are directly linked to identity, as religion or caste often define the trades that individuals practise.
