Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Animal empathy reconsidered: a multidimensional profile account

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Empathy is the glue that holds societies together and yet several fundamental questions about empathy persist. What is empathy (the definitional question)? Is it uniquely human and, if not, which nonhuman animals possess empathy (the distribution question)? Which type or quality of empathy is realized in different species (the quality question)

The dual influence of top‐down and bottom‐up processes on a mesopredator and the consequences for prey

Ecography, EarlyView.
Ecosystem dynamics are shaped by interacting top‐down and bottom‐up processes, yet their relative importance may vary through time following disturbances such as disease outbreaks and changes in apex predator communities. Using a 52‐year time series in south‐central Sweden, we examined how disease, apex predators, and prey availability jointly impact a

A common statement on anthropogenic hybridization of the European wildcat (Felis silvestris)

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Preserving natural genetic diversity and ecological function of wild species is a central goal in conservation biology. As such, anthropogenic hybridization is considered a threat to wild populations, as it can lead to changes in the genetic makeup of ...

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...
