A global review of the conservation status of true quails (Families Odontophoridae and Phasianidae)
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Understanding the conservation status of species is imperative to stem global declines. To better inform conservation, we summarized the global conservation status of New World (Family Odontophoridae) and Old World (Family Phasianidae) true quail species.

Nesting ecology of an ice‐associated seabird, Kittlitz's murrelet, at the northern edge of its range
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.We studied the Kittlitz's murrelet, an ice‐associated seabird of conservation concern, at the northern edge of its range. Over a 2‐year period, we estimated nest density and success at 2 sites, captured and telemetered nesting murrelets, and tested the use of a thermal camera to improve nest detection.

Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.

Asian elephants are associated with a more robust mammalian community in tropical forests
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.It's the first evidence that Asian elephants are positively associated with robustness of mammalian networks, increases ungulate/primate abundances and minimally disrupts activity patterns. Highlights elephants' overlooked role as keystone architects beyond vegetation engineering, urging conservation prioritization to safeguard ecosystem resilience ...
