Effects of Ungulate Herbivores on Temperate Forest Understory Vegetation—Implications From a Large‐Scale Wildlife Exclosure Experiment in Central Europe

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Fenced ungulate exclosure (foreground) with unfenced control plot (background). ABSTRACT Question Ungulates play a key role in influencing understory vegetation and ecosystem dynamics in temperate forests. However, how soil conditions modulate ungulate effects on understory communities remains insufficiently understood.

The American Black Bear (Ursus americanus) as an Apex Predator: Investigating the Ecological Role of the World's Most Abundant Large Carnivore

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
Black bears as apex predators. American black bears can (1) produce top‐down effects on ungulates equal to or exceeding those of typical apex predators and (2) modify the spatiotemporal behaviour of other carnivores, including pumas and coyotes. We argue that the term ‘apex predator’ is highly context dependent and not a species‐wide status.

Investigating the Potential Consequences of Woodland Creation for British Mammal Populations

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
We simulated the conversion of suitable areas in the UK to woodland, according to the current and target woodland creation rates, and assessed how this would affect habitat availability and potential population sizes of British mammals. We predicted that most assessed mammals would benefit or be unaffected by planned woodland creation, but some ...

Home Range and Habitat Selection of Chamois: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
A systematic review of 22 studies reveals a research bias toward the Alpine chamois, leaving other subspecies understudied. Males occupy larger home ranges, and the species consistently selects steep, high‐elevation terrain while avoiding snow‐covered areas and human disturbance.
