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 ...

Caught on Camera: Insights Into Mizoram's Mammalian Diversity Through a Camera‐Trap‐Based Distance Sampling Approach

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 ...

High Mammal Diversity and Flagship Species Persist Under Community Conservation in a Forest‐Savannah Transition Zone in Central Cameroon

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Community conservation areas often classified as council forests play an important role in the persistence or maintenance of diverse mammal communities. However, these areas often receive limited conservation attention and resources. The Yoko Council Forest (YCF) is among the key biodiversity hotspot areas found in Cameroon.

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 ...
