Habitat Features, Coyotes, and Humans Drive Diel Activity Variation Among Sympatric Mammals
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We found that multiple mammal species show considerable variation in diel activity in response to several factors, with biotic variables (habitat features and the presence of coyotes Canis latrans) having the strongest overall effects. Our results have important implications for trophic dynamics. Future studies will need to account for these underlying

Anticoagulant Rodenticides Contribute to a Decline in an Urban Carnivore
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) have been shown to negatively affect carnivores globally and are closely tied to human activity and development. We examined drivers of annual survival in bobcats persisting on a residentially developed barrier island over 16 years.

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...

Side‐selling in coffee cooperatives: Insights from cooperative and non‐cooperative farmers in Mexico
Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates side‐selling in Mexican coffee cooperatives, seeking to answer what drives side‐selling, what drives the expected share side‐sold and what non‐cooperative farmers perceive about side‐selling. Our conceptual framework, a contribution to this literature, proposes that farmers’ economic pressure, coffee quality and ...

Lodge moraines: a common yet underreported end‐moraine type—a review
Boreas, EarlyView.Lodge moraines are a distinct genetic type of end moraine formed by submarginal accretion of subglacial till; they are some of the largest end moraines in the world. Although underreported in the literature, they are of equal importance to push, dump and hummocky end moraines. End moraines are formed at glacier ice margins and show the extent of former

Does conservation status predict research output?
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Abstract The Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 uses the best available science to protect threatened and endangered species, but limited knowledge of listed species can undermine conservation success. This study examined whether ESA‐listed species receive more peer‐reviewed publications than ecologically similar non‐listed species.

Ethology, EarlyView.Corpses are repositories of information about the cause of death. The distress of the bereaved acts as an honest signal drawing conspecifics to the body, enabling them to learn quickly about the death, adapt their behaviour, and spread knowledge of threats across multiple social levels.

A systematic review and meta‐analysis of variation in nest predation of ground‐nesting birds
Ibis, EarlyView.Predation and communities of predators of ground‐nesting bird nests and fledglings have been studied across multiple groups of ground‐nesting birds, such as waders, waterbirds, gamebirds and passerines, and habitats, but differences and similarities between groups are less studied.
