Exploring the complexities of cooperative breeding: insights from African wild dog packs
Journal of Zoology, Volume 328, Issue 1, Page 16-29, January 2026.Across 14 years of monitoring African wild dog packs in Savé Valley Conservancy, Zimbabwe, we found that younger and larger packs were significantly more likely to produce multiple litters, with second‐born pups showing higher survival. Pup survival also increased with pack size, rainfall, and alpha female age, highlighting the adaptive benefits of ...

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Rabies is a zoonotic disease known to humankind for millennia. Despite being preventable, rabies is still neglected and causes human fatalities, predominantly in resource‐limited areas in Africa and Asia. In South Africa, rabies is maintained in both domestic and wildlife reservoir hosts, with frequent cross‐species transmission.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.Mizoram's study revealed low ungulate densities and abundance, suggesting illegal hunting as a cause and entailing conservation urgency. ABSTRACT Assessing species distribution and associated threats is crucial for effective conservation. Many species including mammals face extinction due to habitat loss, hunting, and illegal trade, with their ...

Morphological diversity of saber‐tooth upper canines and its functional implications
The Anatomical Record, Volume 308, Issue 11, Page 3007-3021, November 2025.Abstract Elongated upper canine teeth, commonly known as saber‐teeth, have evolved three times within the sub‐order Feliformia. The species that wielded them flourished throughout the Cenozoic and have historically been separated into two morphological groups: the dirk‐tooths with longer, flatter canines, and the scimitar‐tooths with shorter, serrated ...

An Exploration of DNA Extraction Methods of Fly iDNA for Scalable Biodiversity Monitoring
Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.Metabarcoding of invertebrate‐derived DNA (iDNA) is an excellent tool for assessing terrestrial mammal diversity, but the time and costs associated with sample processing constrain its wider adoption. Our study indicates that the non‐destructive extraction of large pools of entire fly bodies has the potential to streamline and reduce the costs of fly ...
