Ecomorphology of radii in Canidae: Application to fragmentary fossils from Plio-Pleistocene hominin assemblages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Fragmentary long bone material from fossil Carnivora is rarely considered to support palaeoenvironmental reconstructions. Here, we use morphometry of the radius in extant carnivorans of the dog family (Canidae) to reconstruct the palaeobiology of extinct

Implementations of Golden Jackal Algorithm for Solving CCFELD Problems

open access: yesJournal of Soft Computing Paradigm, 2023
This study offers the Golden Jackal Optimization (GJO) algorithm, an effective and trustworthy swarm optimization for tackling economic load dispatch (ELD) issues using cubic fuel cost functions. The presence of equal and unequal constraints of the non-smooth cost functions of a practical ELD has caused difficulties in finding an overall optimal result.

MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION OF HYDRODYNAMIC BEARING BASED ON ADAPTIVE GOLDEN JACKAL ALGORITHM (MT)

open access: yesJixie qiangdu, 2023
In order to improve the load-carrying capacity of the hydrodynamic bearing, and reduce the calorific value and friction coefficient at the same time, a multi-objective optimization model of the hydrodynamic bearing was established.

Golden jackal (Canis aureus) in the Czech Republic: the first record of a live animal and its long-term persistence in the colonized habitat

open access: yesZooKeys, 2017
A golden jackal (Canis aureus) individual was recorded ~40 km east of Prague in the Czech Republic. It is the first record of a living golden jackal in the country; up to now several individuals have been recorded but all of them were either shot dead or

The golden jackal (Canis aureus) in the northern Polissia of Ukraine: occurrence in the wild, status, and slow dispersal

open access: yesTheriologia Ukrainica, 2023
The golden jackal continues to slowly inhabit the north of Central Polissia and to disperse. Mostly single individuals are found. The social structure of the jackal is flexible and groups of more than two individuals are found in places of food ...

Whole-genome sequence analysis shows that two endemic species of North American wolf are admixtures of the coyote and gray wolf. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Protection of populations comprising admixed genomes is a challenge under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), which is regarded as the most powerful species protection legislation ever passed in the United States but lacks specific provisions for hybrids ...

Dietary shift of the common leopard Panthera pardus in and around Bani Wildlife Sanctuary, western Himalayas: implications for conservation and human–wildlife conflict

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding the dietary patterns of apex predator like the common leopard Panthera pardus is essential for evaluating their ecological role, particularly in landscapes where human–wildlife conflict is prevalent. In this context, this study investigates the seasonal diet composition of the common leopard in and around the Bani Wildlife Sanctuary, a ...

The golden jackal (Canis aureus L., 1758) as a new species in the fauna of Ukraine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The golden jackal has appeared in Ukraine in recent years being a new species for our fauna. Due to the fact that its distribution goes very rapidly we decided to study characteristics of the jackal ecology in the period of expansion and characteristics ...

Are human‐altered landscapes reshaping carnivore niche spaces in the Trans‐Himalaya?

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding carnivore interactions under growing human pressures is crucial for conservation. We examined spatial and temporal niche structuring among snow leopards Panthera uncia, Himalayan wolves Canis lupus chanco, and red foxes Vulpes vulpes; while also incorporating free‐ranging dogs Canis lupus familiaris as a human‐subsidized mesopredator ...
