How Can Accountants Enhance (or Save) Natural and Cultural Capital Valuation? Engaging Academics: A Collaboration with CPA Canada and the Canadian Commission for UNESCO*

open access: yesAccounting Perspectives, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 21-46, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Accountants should engage more with natural and cultural capital accounting to make tools more accessible and to ensure critical information is provided to decision‐makers. While ecological economists have continued to innovate and design tools, corporate‐level accounting has seemingly lagged behind.

Prey Partitioning in a Diverse Carnivore Community: Implications for Reintroduced Fishers in Washington

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...

Seasonal Habitat Selection by a Threatened Ungulate in an Industrializing Boreal Landscape

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Understanding habitat selection by Threatened wood bison in landscapes characterized by anthropogenic disturbance is important for conservation planning. During summer and winter, bison selected for linear (e.g., roads, seismic lines, pipelines) and polygonal (e.g., well sites) disturbances, unless there were high densities of linear features.

Weekend Overload: Day‐to‐Day Fluctuations of Outdoor Recreation Affect Wild Mammals' Space‐Use in a Popular Forest Reserve Near Florence, Italy

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
In an urban‐adjacent forested area, we investigated the spatial and temporal distribution of the wild mammal community in relation to day‐to‐day fluctuations of human presence occurring between working days and weekends. We deployed 52 camera‐traps systematically within an EU Natura 2000 area located within the metropolitan area of Florence, central ...

Potential vs. Realized Large Carnivore Density: The Influence of Livestock on Carnivore Carrying Capacity Estimation

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
In an unfenced mixed‐use savanna landscape in Namibia, we compared realized densities of leopards and cheetahs estimated using spatial capture–recapture models with prey‐based carrying capacity predictions. Leopard densities exceeded predictions based on wild prey alone but closely matched livestock‐supplemented models, suggesting that vulnerable ...

Genomic Assessment of Reintroduced African Wild Dogs Informs Conservation Translocations

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Few reintroduction and translocation programs incorporate genomic assessments into management planning, despite ongoing debate over how founder individuals should be selected. Here, we assess the genomic composition of reintroduced African wild dog (Lycaon pictus) populations in private reserves in South Africa, comparing them with a free‐roaming ...

Understanding Mammalian Habitat Use With a Multi‐Species, Multi‐Scale Approach: The Jaguar Protection Corridor in Guaviare, Colombia

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
We applied a multi‐scale, multi‐species framework to quantify how landscape structure and human infrastructure influence habitat use across a terrestrial mammal community within a biological corridor in the Colombian Amazon. Forest cover and spatial configuration influenced wildlife habitat use at spatial scales associated with species dispersal ...
