A capture–recapture framework for combining biologging data with physical captures to decompose and estimate demographic rates: Simulations across life cycles and application to polar bears

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 585-597, February 2026.
Abstract Estimating demographic rates of wild populations is critical to understanding their dynamics but can be challenging because large amounts of data are required, and parts of the life cycle of individuals may be unobserved. In numerous research programmes, capture–recapture (CR) data and biologging data are collected in parallel.

Phylogeny of major lineages of galliform birds (Aves: Galliformes) based on complete mitochondrial genomes

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Research, 2010
Complete mitochondrial DNA sequences have been used successfully to estimate phylogenetic relationships among animal taxa, and for studies of population genetics and molecular evolution. We made phylogenetic analyses of 22 species of Galliformes, with two species of Anseriformes as outgroups, using maximum likelihood (ML), maximum parsimony (MP) and ...

From Barns to Bushes: Exploring the ECOFF‐Based Non‐Wild‐Type Status of Campylobacter spp. in Pets, Livestock, Synanthropic Birds and Wild Animals in Northwestern Italy

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 30-44, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant threat to both humans and animals. Zoonotic bacteria, such as Campylobacter, contribute to human infections and the spread of AMR, particularly through livestock, pets and wildlife. We investigated the prevalence, distribution and EUCAST ECOFF‐based wild‐type (WT) vs.

Biodiversity and Conservation Challenges in the Alédjo Wildlife Reserve (AWR) in Togo: Insights From Ethnozoological Surveys

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
The present study analyzes wildlife species use indices and a vulnerability in the Aledjo Wildlife Reserve (AWR) in Togo. The Importance Value‐in‐use Index (IVIUsp) indicates that the most valued species are the patas monkey (Erythrocebus patas), the forest cobra (Naja melanoleuca), and the green mamba (Dendroaspis viridis).

A Ground Surface Rolling Method for Detecting Environmental DNA of Terrestrial Animals

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
The Koro‐rin sampler enables surface‐based eDNA detection of terrestrial animals. This approach captured a broad range of bird and mammal taxa, including small and cryptic species, and revealed seasonal patterns in animal presence, complementing conventional monitoring methods.

Water bathing alters the speed-accuracy trade-off of escape flights in European starlings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Birds of most species regularly bathe in water, but the function of this behaviour is unknown. We tested the hypothesis that water bathing is important in feather maintenance, and hence should enhance flight performance. We manipulated European starlings'
