Caught on Camera: Insights Into Mizoram's Mammalian Diversity Through a Camera‐Trap‐Based Distance Sampling Approach

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Mizoram's study revealed low ungulate densities and abundance, suggesting illegal hunting as a cause and entailing conservation urgency. ABSTRACT Assessing species distribution and associated threats is crucial for effective conservation. Many species including mammals face extinction due to habitat loss, hunting, and illegal trade, with their ...

Species‐level exploration of the gut microbiome in the leaf‐eating Presbytis monkeys reflected the effects of anthropogenic activity and specialized dietary niches: Conservation on the fourth biodiversity level

iMetaOmics, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2025.
This study integrates full‐length 16S rRNA and deep metagenomic sequencing to explore species‐level gut microbial composition and function in two endangered leaf‐eating langur species—white‐headed langurs and François' langurs—across gradients of human disturbance.

High Mammal Diversity and Flagship Species Persist Under Community Conservation in a Forest‐Savannah Transition Zone in Central Cameroon

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Community conservation areas often classified as council forests play an important role in the persistence or maintenance of diverse mammal communities. However, these areas often receive limited conservation attention and resources. The Yoko Council Forest (YCF) is among the key biodiversity hotspot areas found in Cameroon.

An Exploration of DNA Extraction Methods of Fly iDNA for Scalable Biodiversity Monitoring

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
Metabarcoding of invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA) is an excellent tool for assessing terrestrial mammal diversity, but the time and costs associated with sample processing constrain its wider adoption. Our study indicates that the non‐destructive extraction of large pools of entire fly bodies has the potential to streamline and reduce the costs of fly ...

DeepForestVision: Automated wildlife identification for camera traps of African tropical forests

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) observed on camera trap in Kibale National Park, Uganda. This frame was extracted from a 30 s video classified as chimpanzee by DeepForestVision with a confidence score of 0.99 (©Sebitoli Chimpanzee Project). Abstract Tropical forests are rich in biodiversity but face the rapid loss of their wildlife due to increasing ...
