Modelling the surprising recolonisation of an understudied aquatic mammal in a highly urbanised area: fortune favoured the smooth‐coated otter in Singapore

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Ever‐growing human activities present an active and continuing threat to many species throughout the world. Nevertheless, concerted conservation efforts in some regions have balanced these threats and allowed endangered species to recolonise former parts of their original ranges and reverse their decline.

Home range and core area characteristics of urban and rural coyotes and red foxes in southern Wisconsin

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Second‐order habitat selection is influenced by a variety of factors, including individual‐ and species‐specific traits and resource requirements, as well as landscape characteristics. By comparing home range characteristics across individuals, species, and landscapes, we can draw conclusions regarding whether and how different factors influence home ...

Citizen science project on urban canids provides different results from camera traps but generates interest and revenue

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As urbanization increases, wildlife increasingly encounters people. Coyotes Canis latrans and red foxes Vulpes vulpes are two canid species that have readily adapted to urban environments. Citizen science has emerged as a low‐cost method of collecting data on urban‐adapted species that can benefit management agencies but may provide different results ...

Urbanisation and human activities influence the co‐occurrence of red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris and meso‐carnivores in Berlin, Germany

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban expansion is a major driver of habitat fragmentation, shrinking wildlife habitat, and restricting wildlife movements and activity patterns. In this novel environment, species must adapt to the new composition of wildlife communities. For example, red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris are commonly found in urban environments, while their potential ...

Artificial supplementary food influences hedgehog occupancy and activity patterns more than predator presence or natural food availability

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Supplementary feeding for declining hedgehog Erinaceus europaeus populations is popular in Great Britain and has been suggested as an important factor in explaining higher densities in urban areas compared with rural ones. Occupancy modelling was used to test whether spatial variation in supplementary feeding, natural food, habitat, or predator ...
