Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Disease, 2016 Abstract Objective To evaluate the rattus biological control program in Iranian Persian Gulf Island, Abu-Musa. Methods This study was conducted on the Iranian island of Abu-Musa during April 2012 to March 2013. The rattus trapping was done using commercial live and baited rat trap, in different parts of the island. Also the island of Qeshm, with

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 3, July–September 2025.Camera trapping is frequently used to study small carnivores but can result in limited detection rates for small, fast moving species. We tested the Mostela, a recently developed camera trapping method, for monitoring small carnivores in the Garden Route, South Africa.

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, July 2025.ABSTRACT Carnivore assemblages in ecosystems worldwide are shaped by intense interspecific competition for critical resources such as food and habitat. Despite extensive research on coexistence strategies, detailed investigations into interspecific interactions at carcass sites remain limited. This study fills the gap by investigating the interspecific
