Evaluation of the Impacts of Radio-Marking Devices on Feral Horses and Burros in a Captive Setting

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2020
Radio-collars and other radio-marking devices have been invaluable tools for wildlife managers for >40 years. These marking devices have improved our understanding of wildlife spatial ecology and demographic parameters and provided new data facilitating ...

Extreme weather events cause pulsed fruit drop and alter plant–seed disperser mutualisms

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 8, August 2026.
Extreme weather events are increasing in frequency, duration and intensity, yet their role in reshaping plant–frugivore interactions remains poorly understood. We show that extreme weather events trigger abrupt pulses of fruit drop, redistributing interaction opportunities among ground‐dwelling frugivores.

Home Range and Habitat Selection of Feral Horses (Equus ferus f. caballus) in a Mountainous Environment: A Case Study from Northern Greece

Land
The spatial ecology of feral horses (Equus ferus f. caballus) in Greece has never been studied before, including home range size and habitat selection. We tracked two mares fitted with global positioning system collars between September 2020 and August ...

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1091-1107, July 2026.
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.

ASIP Variants in Livestock: It's Not Black and White

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fur and feather pigmentation play an important role in the survival and reproduction of many species, as well as in selective breeding and agriculture. The synthesis of pigment molecules, eumelanin and pheomelanin, is partially regulated by the agouti signalling protein (ASIP) encoded by the ASIP gene.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
