Choosing what is left: the spatial structure of a wild herbivore population within a livestock-dominated landscape [PDF]
Shrublands and grasslands comprise over 30% of the land surface and are among the most exploited ecosystems for livestock production. Across natural landscapes, the distribution and abundance of wild herbivores are affected by interspecific competition ...

Evaluating novel attachment methods for tracking devices on terrestrial mammals
We deployed GNSS tracking devices on 2 endangered large terrestrial mammals, scimitar‐horned oryx and Przewalski's horses, using novel attachment methods. Tags achieved fix success rates and spatial accuracy that compare well with standard collars used on large mammals.

Paleoseismic Evidence of Recent Co‐Seismic Ruptures in Western Tierra del Fuego, Chile
Abstract The Magallanes‐Fagnano fault (MFF) in Tierra del Fuego (TDF) is a major left‐lateral transform boundary between the South American and Scotia plates. While surface ruptures associated with the 1949 earthquakes have been documented in Argentina east of the Fagnano Lake, their extension to the west remained uncertain.

ABSTRACT Social structures and habitat configuration influence inbreeding in wild populations. In harem‐forming, female‐defence polygynous equids, social organization promotes inbreeding avoidance, but this has not been studied in fission–fusion, resource‐defence equid species.
