Coexistence or conflict: Black bear habitat use along an urban-wildland gradient

PLoS ONE, 2022
The urban-wildland interface is expanding and increasing the risk of human-wildlife conflict. Some wildlife species adapt to or avoid living near people, while others select for anthropogenic resources and are thus more prone to conflict.

Refining the stress gradient hypothesis for mixed species groups of African mammals

Scientific Reports, 2022
Species interactions such as facilitation and predation influence food webs, yet it is unclear how they are mediated by environmental gradients. Here we test the stress gradient hypothesis which predicts that positive species interactions increase with ...
