Limited elephant impacts on baobabs despite increasing elephant densities in a newly established protected area

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Researchers combined aerial and ground surveys to map baobab distribution and assess elephant herbivory impacts on baobabs across Karingani Game Reserve, Mozambique. Researchers found that aerial surveys were an effective tool for mapping baobabs and that baobabs were more likely to occur closer to permanent water, at lower elevations, and in areas ...

The need for clarity in species conservation objectives

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Identifying sensible conservation objectives should probably be easiest when planning an investment portfolio designed for a single species. However, focusing on African Elephant conservation, we show that optimal investment differs substantially depending on relatively small differences in objectives, that recent allocation was rarely the most ...

Wildebeest movement responses to electric conservation fencing in the African Savannah ecosystem

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
These findings provide GPS‐based empirical evidence of how a newly constructed electric conservation fence alters migratory wildebeests, and show that effects are context‐dependent across habitat type, time of day, and distance to the boundary. While such fences can reduce human–wildlife conflict and support conservation goals, they must be carefully ...

Translocation of livestock‐raiding lions under specific conditions can mitigate conflict

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Human‐wildlife conflict is a pervasive threat that imperils many carnivore species worldwide, and although translocation is often used as a conflict mitigation strategy, it is widely regarded as ineffective. Here, we demonstrate that careful selection of suitable release sites can improve outcomes, as 80% of stock‐raiding lion translocations in ...

“Simply Amazing and Fantastic”: The Maude Abbott Medical Museum Visitor Book, 2018–2023

Curator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Maude Abbott Medical Museum has a collection of human remains which we believe is appropriate to preserve and use for teaching and research. We wondered to what extent our visitors feel the same way. We categorized all entries in our museum visitor book for 5 years into five groups based on specific words or phrases.
