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 ...

Quantification of steroid hormones in free‐ranging Apennine wolf Canis lupus italicus hair samples collected post‐mortem

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
After decades of dramatic reductions in their populations, Italian wolves have begun recolonizing parts of their historic range. This growth in populations can lead to potential conflicts with human activities, which remain the main cause of wolf mortality.

Tradeoffs between brain and digestive tissues across elevations in Typhlomys daloushanensis: evidence for sexual dimorphism

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
To cope with highly stochastic and/or heterogeneous environmental conditions, animals must balance energy resource allocation across physiological processes. The digestive tract and brain exhibit structural variations under strong developmental and selective pressures that vary across environmental gradients both between and within species.

Beyond the enclosure: a decade of monitoring reveals altered traits in a European ground squirrel colony with implications for a recovery program

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Effective integrated conservation programs critically depend on high‐quality animals from ex situ breeding, specifically those that are genetically diverse and physically healthy, yet insufficient scientific rigor in husbandry protocols can lead to unintended, detrimental consequences that compromise reintroduction success.
