Using 25 years of capture data from Fort Campbell Military Installation, we evaluated whether white‐nose syndrome (WNS)‐driven declines in susceptible bats were followed by increases in non‐susceptible species (ecological release) versus shifts driven by land use change, at the installation and site specific spatial scales.

A Review of the Effects of Freshwater Habitat Quality on Aquatic & Semi‐Aquatic Turtles
This literature review aims to provide a comprehensive review of the relationship between freshwater turtles and their aquatic environments. We also highlight areas which have been over‐ or under‐studied and offer recommendations for future research. ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles and terrapins require an aquatic habitat as part of their natural ecology ...

Female common serotine bats (Cnephaeus serotinus) are consistently larger than males in forearm length, wing area and mandibular dimensions related to bite force. Wing dimorphism reflects isometric size scaling rather than shape divergence, suggesting compensation for pregnancy‐related mass increases.

ABSTRACT Hematologic assessment is a common clinical tool used to characterize both individual and population health. In ectothermic organisms, the hematologic response is influenced by external factors such as temperature and season, especially in temperate species. Yet, specific environmental effects have received little direct attention.

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.

Abstract Abdominal hernias in bats are rarely reported in the literature, with most reports evaluating postmortem findings. The present study documents successful surgical management of post‐traumatic abdominal hernias in three vespertilionid bats. Three injured bats (two Nyctalus noctula and one Eptesicus serotinus) were admitted for veterinary care ...
