The influence of skull shape modularity on internal skull structures: a 3D-Pilot study using bears [PDF]
, 2015 In order to capture the phenotypic variation of the internal skull structures, such as the sinuses or the brain, it is necessary to perform CT scans in a large number of specimens, which is difficult and expensive.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.We studied the spatial and temporal relationships between clouded tiger‐cats and dogs in an isolated protected area of Colombia. Dogs influenced the activity patterns of clouded tiger‐cats but not their habitat use. Conservation actions should be directed to mitigate potential contact between both species.

Ganglion-specific splicing of TRPV1 underlies infrared sensation in vampire bats. [PDF]
, 2011 Vampire bats (Desmodus rotundus) are obligate blood feeders that have evolved specialized systems to suit their sanguinary lifestyle. Chief among such adaptations is the ability to detect infrared radiation as a means of locating hotspots on warm-blooded

Ecological and Social Dimensions of Human–Bear Coexistence in Nepal's Gaurishankar Conservation Area
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.We modelled habitat suitability for Asiatic black bears in Nepal's Gaurishankar Conservation Area and combined it with community surveys to understand human–bear coexistence. Our results show that bear habitat is concentrated between 1000 and 3000 m and that conflict is rising in forest‐edge communities.

Comments on : diet, physiology and ecology of fossil mammals as inferred from stable carbon and nitrogen isotope biogeochemistry: implications for Pleistocene bears [PDF]
, 1997 A detailed study of isotopic relationships in European Pleistocene ursid teeth have been presented by Bocherens et al. (1994). We agree with the resu1ts and broad conclusions derived from the stable carbon isotope relationships.

Subsistence harvest for food and pets associated with declining global mammal populations
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 24, Issue 5, June 2026.Subsistence harvest can have substantial impacts on mammalian biodiversity, yet its effects on the conservation status of mammal species are poorly understood. We analyzed trade and use data in species accounts from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List to examine the effects of subsistence harvest on the conservation ...

, 2019 We present a case study in which we use a mixture of regressions model to improve on an ill-fitting simple linear regression model relating log brain mass to log body mass for 100 placental mammalian species.

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 5, Page 462-475, June 2026.ABSTRACT Chemical communication, typically based on feces, urine, and glandular secretions, often deposited as substrate scent marks, plays a key role in social organization and communication among many mammals, especially carnivores. This study assesses experimentally whether the type of substrate chosen for fecal deposition and the temperature ...

Tick‐Tac‐Foe: When Ticks, Trade, and Zoonotic Pathogens Align in African Wet Meat Markets
Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Zoonotic diseases account for over ∼60% of infectious diseases and present a significantly growing fatality threat in Africa. Live and wet markets (LWMs) in Africa function as key economic venues that support human livelihoods through social interaction and trade in food stuff, including meat and other animal‐based products.
