Loners Have It: Insights on Breeding and Non‐Breeding Individuals of Sloth Bears in Central India

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Dynamics of breeding biology, such as intraspecific sexual segregation, indicate avoidance of infanticide and/or reduced resource competition, which are reported for some bear species but are lacking for Sloth bears (Melursus ursinus). We found that mother bears with cubs segregate themselves from lone adults spatio‐temporally by avoiding resource‐rich

Defining the pollinator garden: is conceptual flexibility a feature or a bug?

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 24, Issue 7, September 2026.
Ecologists often aim to reduce conceptual ambiguity by attempting to create rigid shared lexicons. These efforts imply that ambiguity is undesirable. In some contexts, however, conceptual flexibility comes with under‐discussed benefits. Here, we use the lens of pollinator gardening to explore how conceptual flexibility is built into participatory ...

Deletion of Astrocytic TNFR1 Attenuates Hyperexcitability and Initiation of Epileptogenesis

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Inducible, astrocyte‐specific deletion of TNFR1 reduces basal EEG spectral power. Loss of astrocytic TNFR1 attenuates acute seizure activity in two distinct experimental models of epilepsy. Deletion of TNFR1 in astrocytes limits epilepsy development and hippocampal pathology in a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis ...

Can't outrun recurrence: Long‐term outcomes of treating American black bear sarcoptic mange

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 7, September 2026.
Abstract The growing incidence of sarcoptic mange in American black bears (Ursus americanus) has become a concern for wildlife managers in the eastern United States. Inconsistency in the use of single and multi‐dose treatment approaches makes it difficult to evaluate their effects on post‐release outcomes of mange‐rehabilitated bears, which remain ...

Effects of off‐highway vehicle activity on Arizona wildlife: a systematic literature review

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 7, September 2026.
The published literature indicates that off‐highway vehicles (OHVs) predominantly negatively affect native Arizona amphibians, mammals, and reptiles, while effects of OHVs on native Arizona birds are mostly unknown or neutral. Abstract Off‐highway vehicle (OHV) recreation has dramatically increased in Arizona, USA, prompting concerns about potential ...

An Arctic Field Campaign Using Stratospheric Balloons for Micro‐Dropsonde Deployment: Insights and Evaluation

open access: yesMeteorological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
A 2025 field campaign, based in Iceland, successfully deployed micro‐dropsonde sensors from stratospheric balloons in the Arctic. Atmospheric profiles were retrieved from a variety of data‐sparse regions. The campaign demonstrates the feasibility and value of balloon‐borne systems for enhancing Arctic observation and forecasting capability.

Treatment of Potential Postpartum Eclampsia in a Python Using Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine: A Case Report

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT According to the traditional Chinese veterinary medicine (TCVM) theory, Yin deficiency contributes to the acute onset of eclampsia. This condition arises primarily from the substantial loss of blood and nutrients to the foetus during pregnancy, leading to insufficient nutrition and blood supply. Consequently, the muscles and veins are deprived

Dietary differentiation of two co‐occurring common bat species (Eptesicus nilssonii and Pipistrellus pygmaeus)

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Sympatric bat species can co‐exist and avoid interspecific competition via niche differentiation e.g. diet. Detecting dietary differences can be achieved by comparing dietary niches of sympatric and allopatric populations. If dietary overlap is higher in sympatry versus allopatry, co‐occurrence may be altering the dietary niche of the species.
