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

The Complexly Parcellated, Yet Quantitatively Reduced, Orexinergic/Hypocretinergic System of Humans

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 533, Issue 2, February 2025.
Immunohistochemical staining for orexin‐A reveals the novel parvocellular orexinergic neuronal cluster (left) in the human brain. In comparison to the more typically observed orexinergic neurons of the main cluster (right), the parvocellular neurons have much smaller soma. Scale bar = 100 µm, applies to both images.

First Mammuthus (Elephantidae) findings from Samsun district (Türkiye)

open access: yesBulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration, 2022
Located between Africa, Asia and Europe, Anatolia is a crossroads for the migration of many mammals such as elephantids. For this reason, important fossils belonging to different species of elephantids were found from various localities. In this study, mammoth molars found in Samsun- Ladik were examined. As a result of the examination, M.

Assessment of Changes in the Composition and Distribution of Large and Medium‐Sized Mammals in Xishuangbanna, Southwest China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2024.
We employed 785 camera traps to precisely assess large and medium‐sized mammal composition and distribution in tropical Xishuangbanna. Our findings highlight the uneven distribution of large and medium‐sized mammal communities in Xishuangbanna, with rare and large‐sized species being more vulnerable to rapid environmental changes.

Play is a privilege in both humans and animals: how our recreation influences wildlife

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 88, Issue 8, November 2024.
We discuss how variation in resources influences play behavior in humans and wildlife. We also consider wildlife responses to nature‐based tourism and use the desert bighorn sheep as an example. Abstract Nature‐based tourism nets roughly 8 billion annual travelers globally to all regions of Earth, with many visiting around 200,000 formally protected ...
