A comparison of red fox Vulpes vulpes activity and gamebird diet on gamebird release sites and on nearby non‐release areas in southern England

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Driven game shoots in the UK lowlands commonly release several thousand pheasants Phasianus colchicus and red‐legged partridges Alectoris rufa in late summer, which is likely to attract the attention of the main generalist predator, the red fox. Game managers try to protect their releases by culling foxes.

Detection‐Dog‐Guided Camera Placement Increases Efficiency of Surveys for Long‐Tailed Weasels (Neogale frenata) 利用探测犬引导布设相机可提升长尾鼬调查效率

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
By comparing widespread surveys with randomly placed cameras to a protocol pairing detection dogs with cameras, we found that the detection‐dog‐guided camera survey had approximately 33 times greater detections with fewer camera nights and reduced survey costs. We recommend using detection dogs to identify areas to focus camera trapping. ABSTRACT Multi‐

Apex predators exploit advantageous snow conditions across hunting modes

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Advantageous snow conditions—in terms of snow depth and density—are among the most important features of the winter landscape for two apex predators, regardless of hunting strategy. In a warming climate, the knock‐on effects of a diminishing snowpack may reduce the hunting success of multiple large carnivore species.

A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.
