Elephant space use and habitat selection change across drought timescales

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Drought threatens wildlife worldwide, but little is known about wildlife behaviour during drought. This study combines 19 years of elephant GPS data with drought conditions at three timescales. Key findings include that elephants (i) move less during drought at a 1‐month timescale and (ii) change habitat selection across drought timescales.

Human hunters are no substitute for vanishing apex predators

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study reveals that human hunters fail to replicate the collective and individual ecological functions of natural apex predators in sustaining biodiversity and promoting stable spatial patterns. These insights are vital for rethinking predator conservation and wildlife management in human‐dominated landscapes.

What England Is and What It Claims to Be: Orwell on National Identity

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article suggests that George Orwell's body of work offers a rather unique and insightful two‐part conception of national identity in the context of England, made up of a moral inheritance—the values of liberty, fairness and decency—and a lived sensibility—the fluid, experiential quality of collective life expressed in shared customs ...

Conceptual colour: race, economic knowledge, and the anthropology of financialization De la couleur comme concept : race, connaissances économiques et anthropologie de la financiarisation

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Economic anthropologists now carry out fieldwork in settings for which the ethnographic method was never designed, amongst powerful financial actors who are notoriously difficult to access, and in contexts which transcend geographical boundaries. This has engendered a re‐orientation of anthropology, to consider not only the economic lives of people but

Animal translations: AI and the intelligibility of non‐human worlds Traduire l'animal : l'IA et l'intelligibilité des mondes non humains

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Amid the general sense of worry that large language models will soon drown out human voices, some researchers are optimistic that machine learning will allow humans to listen to and understand animal voices to an unprecedented extent. As part of a broader project aimed at interspecies communication, a loosely connected set of animal behaviourists, AI ...
