Nuevos enfoques en la conservación de la biodiversidad: ¿Hacia dónde vamos?

open access: yesActa Zoológica Lilloana, 2009
“A large proportion of existing species —possibly half, conceivably even more— may be lost within the foreseeable future. But this may not prove to be the most consequential outcome of the current biodiversity crisis.

Global analysis of annual survival among shorebirds reveals a negative effect of migration distance and a decline in recent decades

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Annual survival is a key demographic parameter driving population trends in wildlife populations. However, despite numerous species‐specific or regional studies, global reviews of the factors affecting the survival of declining taxa remain scarce. Here, we investigated annual survival of fledged immature and adult shorebirds, a globally‐distributed and

From the brink of extinction to regulation: northern Europe's white‐tailed eagles now face density dependence and climate constraints after rapid population growth

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Population growth reflects the combined influence of regulation and density‐independent factors operating through demographic processes. Under exceptional circumstances (e.g. populations recovering from near‐extinction), growth may initially be weakly regulated but typically slows as negative density dependence (NDD) sets in.

Population recovery of an endangered macaw enhances long‐distance seed dispersal via stomatochory

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal by large, mobile vertebrates plays a key role in shaping plant spatial dynamics and community structure. However, how variation in animal population size influences the magnitude and spatial scale of seed dispersal remains poorly understood.

Urban wild meat and pangolin consumption across southern forested Cameroon: The limited influence of COVID‐19

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Overexploitation of wildlife is pervasive in many tropical regions, and in addition to being a significant conservation and sustainability concern, it has received global attention given discussions over the origins of zoonotic disease outbreaks.

Unveiling human–wildlife interactions in the context of livestock grazing abandonment and the return of large carnivores, ungulates and vultures: A stakeholder perspective

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.

Bridging the gap between science, policy and stakeholders: Towards sustainable wolf–livestock coexistence in human‐dominated landscapes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract While the return of wolves (Canis lupus) to many European countries is a conservation milestone, the negative impacts are unevenly distributed across society, placing high pressure on livestock grazing systems. For this perspective, scientists from diverse disciplines and geographical backgrounds reflect on the state of livestock–wolf ...

Who is local and what do they know? Braiding knowledges within carnivore management in Europe

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Growing recognition of Indigenous Peoples and traditional local communities as stewards of biodiversity has brought to the fore the issues of knowledge and value pluralism in conservation policy and practice. Given their basis in practical and multi‐generational experience, Indigenous and local knowledges are highly relevant to managing human ...
