Uncovering Cryptic Diversity: Camera Trap Insights Into the Effects of Seasonality and Anthropogenic Presence in a Mosaic Savannah Ecosystem

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Developing comprehensive mammal inventories in protected areas with human presence is essential for effective biodiversity conservation yet remains challenging, particularly for elusive species. Camera trapping has emerged as a valuable tool for documenting mammal diversity, complementary to or as an alternative to traditional direct ...

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) on the assessment of the impact of fox population dynamics on public health

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.

Highly precise community science annotations of video camera‐trapped fauna in challenging environments

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 10, Issue 6, Page 702-724, December 2024.
Even though they require more time for annotation compared to still images, camera trap videos provide valuable acoustic and visual information on species’ behaviour and can improve identification of individuals. Here we use Community Science (CS) to annotate camera trap videos from a challenging environment, a dense tropical forest with low visibility

First systematic population survey of the desert‐adapted lions, Northwest Namibia

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2024.
Abstract The desert‐adapted lions (Panthera leo) of northwest Namibia inhabit arid and semi‐arid habitats, primarily within communal conservancy lands, which they share with semi‐nomadic pastoralists. Though of considerable conservation interest, no systematic population survey of these lions has previously been attempted.
