Abstract Alternative protein interventions are common in conservation. They aim to reduce the hunting or consumption of wildlife by promoting substitutes. However, selecting suitable meat substitutes is challenging because many factors drive wild meat consumption. Palatability, one such factor, drives consumer food preference and is potentially crucial

Role of protected areas in mitigating range loss and local extinctions of terrestrial mammals
Abstract Protected areas (PAs) are a major tool in biodiversity conservation, but the extent to which they mitigate species declines is often unclear. We evaluated the effectiveness of PAs in mitigating range contraction and local extinction for 483 terrestrial mammal species.

Importance of connectivity for carnivore richness and occupancy in fragmented biodiversity hotspots
Abstract Structural connectivity affects wildlife movement between habitat patches, contributing to the persistence of wildlife populations and their resilience to human‐induced and environmental changes. However, its importance to wildlife population persistence remains unclear, particularly in fragmented landscapes, where there are additional co ...

COEXISTENCE IN TRANSVAAL CARNIVORA
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) How coexisting carnivore species avoid interspecific competition is examined by consideration of their more prominent physical and behavioral characteristics. An attempt is made to explain coexistence of the 33 Transvaal carnivore species.
