open access: yes, 1993
Proboscidean remains are very rare in the Transvaal cave breccias and the few specimens recovered are generally fragmentary but deserve description because of their potential value in correlation and dating.

A case for human mobility data applications in wildlife management

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 7, Page 1636-1646, July 2025.
Human mobility data provides a transformative tool for wildlife management by offering scalable, dynamic insights into human activity that traditional methods cannot fully capture. These data enable managers to prioritize intervention areas, improve compliance with management zones, mitigate conflict risks, and enhance connectivity for sensitive ...

Prevalence of Intestinal Parasites in Captive Asian Elephants (Elephas maximus Linnaeus, 1758) in Central Nepal

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.
Gastrointestinal parasites (GIPs) are determining factors in the health of Asian Elephants. The current coproscopic study recorded 95.2% prevalence rates with 19 different GIPs from these animals. The major risk factors could be overlapping niches with domestic and wild animals, irregular medication and the existence of critical stressors. .

Resolution of the type material of the Asian elephant, Elephas maximus Linnaeus, 1758 (Proboscidea, Elephantidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The understanding of Earth’s biodiversity depends critically on the accurate identification and nomenclature of species. Many species were described centuries ago, and in a surprising number of cases their nomenclature or type material remain unclear ...

Giant Gardeners of the Forest: How African Forest Elephants (Loxodonta cyclotis) Shape Mammal Biodiversity in the Republic of Congo

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The African forest elephant (Loxodonta cyclotis), a critically endangered species, is a megaherbivore that browses and transforms large quantities and varieties of vegetation during its foraging activities and movements. However, the cascading effects of this ‘ecosystem engineer’ on animal biodiversity are poorly known. In this study, based on
