Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...

Lack of capture‐induced mortality of neonates associated with variation in handling protocols

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We found that handling metrics (e.g., handling time, number of collectors, and age at capture) had limited or no influence on the survival of neonatal mule deer, desert bighorn sheep, and Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep within the first few days of life. Furthermore, we found that handled mule deer and Rocky Mountain bighorn neonates were recruited at a ...

The Influence of Seasonal Weather Conditions at High Latitudes on the Temporal Distribution of Territorial Vocalizations by Captive Asiatic Lions (Panthera leo persica)

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Territorial advertising in lions involves a suite of behaviors such as patrolling, scent marking, spraying, and vocalizing. In their native tropical habitat, wild lions are primarily nocturnal, capitalizing on cooler temperatures and darkness for effective hunting and minimizing thermoregulation stress.

Diallel Analysis of Plant and Ear Heights in Tropical Maize (Zea mays L.)

Diallel Analysis of Plant and Ear Heights in Tropical Maize (Zea mays L.)
Plant breeders and geneticists often use diallel mating designs to obtain genetic information about a trait of interest from a fixed or randomly chosen set of parental lines. Diallel designs and analyses have been developed for parents that range from inbred lines to genetically broad-based varieties.

Views of Vidigal: negotiating opportunities and risks in a gentrifying favela in Rio de Janeiro Favela avec vue : négocier opportunités et risques dans un quartier en voie de gentrification à Rio de Janeiro

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
The contested dynamics of slum gentrification in Rio de Janeiro came into focus during the brief period of relative peace brought by the pacification policy leading up to the 2016 Olympics. In this unprecedented moment, Rio's South Zone favela residents experienced a respite from the daily confrontations with police operations and drug trade violence ...
