DNA metabarcoding reveals wolf dietary patterns in the northern Alps and Jura Mountains

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding predator–prey interactions is crucial for wildlife management and human–wildlife coexistence, particularly in multi‐use landscapes such as western Europe. As wolves Canis lupus recolonize their former habitats, knowledge of their diet is essential for conservation, management and public acceptance.

Nocturnal neighbors: exploring residents' perceptions of urban wildlife related to animal traits identified by camera traps and literature

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife in urban areas is often a source of conflict, yet relatively few efforts have been directed toward fostering coexistence in these human‐dominated landscapes. While previous research has focused on socio‐demographic factors influencing perceptions of wildlife, the role of specific animal traits in shaping acceptance remains underexplored.

The wolf is back! Non‐consumptive effects of the return of a large carnivore on the use of supplementary feeding sites by roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus

Born to die: pack and population level estimates of wolf pup survival and recruitment in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wolf pup Canis lupus survival is a key driver of wolf population dynamics that remains poorly understood, especially in forested systems, because wolf pups are difficult to monitor. We used a combination of pup counts at dens and remote camera observations to estimate annual survival and recruitment of wolf pups in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem, MN ...

Delineating seasonal shifts in reindeer habitat and diet selection by integrating GPS telemetry and stable isotope analysis

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Seasonal changes shape herbivore behaviour by altering forage availability and habitat conditions; however, few studies integrate diet and habitat selection data across temporal scales. This study uses seasonality as a unifying framework to combine fine‐scale GPS‐based habitat selection data with broader‐scale dietary information from stable isotope ...

Still on the same page: A gender comparison of the top 100 picture books from the UK and China published 2011–2020

Children &Society, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract As a primary source for the early ages, picture books guide preschool children's gender perception through stories and illustrations. However, previous studies have criticised an overall gender inequality in children's picture books. Compared to the increasing attention on gender diversity in the UK picture book industry, there has been little
