Evolutionary correlates and consequences of sociality in feliform carnivorans
Journal of Zoology, Volume 329, Issue 1, Page 12-24, May 2026.We take a phylogenetic comparative approach to investigate the evolutionary correlates of sociality in feliform (cat‐like) carnivores. We find that sociality evolved eight times in this group of mammals, and that it is associated with ecologies that facilitate group cohesion (e.g. diurnality and open habitats) and also that should reduce competition (e.

The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, Volume 107, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Knowing about species interactions is essential for ecological research, conservation efforts, resource management, and maintaining healthy ecosystems, but many of these, such as reports of predation, may not always be published in easily located resources—if they are published at all.

Wildlife Letters, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 10-22, March 2026.In this study we analyze the role of phylogeny, environment, and community structure on sociality. Using structural equation modeling (SEM) we aim to quantify the direct and indirect impacts of variables on behaviors including social grouping, reproduction, and space use among Carnivora species.

Serosurveillance of Leishmania infantum in Zoo‐Kept Animals in Spain
Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 65-73, February 2026.ABSTRACT Introduction Leishmaniosis is a sand fly‐borne zoonosis mainly caused by Leishmania infantum in Europe. Exposure to this protozoan has been widely reported in many domestic and wild species. However, epidemiological surveys evaluating the circulation of L. infantum in zoo‐kept animals remain limited. This large‐scale study aims to evaluate the
