Genomic Signatures in Maned Three‐Toed Sloths From Ancient to Recent Environmental Changes in Brazil's Threatened Atlantic Forest

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 23, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Environmental and climatic changes have shaped the evolutionary trajectories of natural populations, leaving genomic signatures that reflect how species respond to these shifts and their impacts on genetic health. While these insights are essential for unravelling evolutionary histories and informing conservation strategies, studies on ...

Social media videos highlight the impacts of the illegal use of snares on Brazilian biodiversity

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2811-2820, November 2025.
Abstract Snares are one of the most used types of non‐selective traps for hunting worldwide, though their use is prohibited in many countries, including Brazil. Indiscriminate and unmonitored use of snares can induce serious conservation problems, particularly in megadiverse countries where higher species richness and diversity mean that the ...
