Human landscape alterations and land cover heterogeneity influence northern raccoon (Procyon lotor) site use intensity

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Northern raccoons (Procyon lotor; hereafter raccoon) are a widely distributed mesocarnivore that is common throughout North and Central America. Already the source of many human–wildlife conflicts, recent range expansions and abundance increases may cause additional management issues.

Effect of primate protection on threatened and endemic vertebrates, plants, ecosystem services, and future climate refugia

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Primates, 69% of which are threatened with extinction, are the third most specious order of mammals. We used primates as model taxa to examine the umbrella effects of primates on ecosystem services and the protection of other vertebrates and seed plants in Yunnan Province, China.

Incubation behaviour in a double‐nesting alpine bird Alectoris graeca saxatilis: similar nest attendance by males and females

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 5, September 2025.
In birds with double‐nesting and uniparental incubation, such as the rock partridge Alectoris graeca saxatilis, the male incubates one clutch, while the female incubates the other. A previous study found no significant difference in hatching and predation rates on Alpine rock partridge nests incubated by each sex.

Population demographics of translocated northern bobwhites on fragmented habitat

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2013
Habitat fragmentation is considered a contributing factor to declining populations of northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus). Some population strongholds exist within large expanses of habitat; however, many regions of the species' range have become ...
