Hunting regulations and movements of alpine reindeer
Most ungulate populations are regulated by hunting, and harvest rate is regulated through quotas and hunting season duration. Hunting is well known to affect behaviour of ungulates, but how annual variation in quotas and hunting season duration affects individual behaviour remains uncertain.

Can edge AI mitigate environmental effects on camera trap performance?
A camera trap enabled with edge artificial intelligence (AI) mitigated the effects of increased air temperature on the probability of false positive detections, but at the cost of an increased probability of missed detections. Other environmental variables affected camera trap performance differently, suggesting the need to account for camera trap ...

We present the overwintering foraging tactics adopted by the sika deer recently established in a heavy snowfall region of northern Japan. We found that sedentary deer adopted risk‐averse foraging by switching their dietary compositions to readily available foods under different snow conditions. In particular, when facing extreme snowfall, they depended

Visually apparent diseases are valuable for investigating and monitoring the occurrence and prevalence of pathogens in wildlife populations through passive monitoring methods like camera trapping. Rumpwear is characterized by visible signs of hair breakage and damage on the lumbosacral region of common brushtail possums.

Community‐informed and codesigned research to understand the impacts of railways on wildlife
Abstract Trains cause mortalities of several animal species, but the ecological impacts of railways are understudied. Most research on wildlife–train collisions has focused on large mammals, but understanding railway‐specific risks for underrepresented taxa, especially vulnerable species, is important for developing effective mitigation strategies ...

Black‐capped chickadees' chick‐a‐dee calls and fee‐bee songs are individually distinct. We used an operant conditioning Go/No‐go paradigm to train chickadees to discriminate among four individuals' chick‐a‐dee calls or fee‐bee songs. Chickadees successfully learned this discrimination rule.
