Surveillance and Phylogenetic Characterisation of Avian Influenza Viruses Isolated from Wild Waterfowl in Zambia in 2015, 2020, and 2021. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis, 2023
In recent years, the southern African region has experienced repeated incursions of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs), with wild migratory birds being implicated in the spread. To understand the profile of avian influenza viruses (AIVs) circulating in Zambia, we surveyed wild waterfowl for AIVs and phylogenetically characterised the ...

Lions select larger prey in a Central African protected area with increasingly effective management. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Lions and their prey are threatened across most of their range and especially in West and Central Africa, where scarcity of large prey has been described as leading to a preference for hunting smaller prey in smaller groups. We investigated the changes in prey selection of lions in Zakouma National Park (Chad) and our results show that diet shifts due ...

Predation strongly limits demography of a keystone migratory herbivore in a recovering transfrontier ecosystem. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2022
The paper provides the first quantitative characterization of the demography of the blue wildebeest population in western Zambia ‐ one of Africa’s largest remaining migrations. Predation was the dominant cause of mortality, and mortality risk varied with position along the migratory route.

African bovid tribe classification using transfer learning and computer vision

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1530, Issue 1, Page 152-160, December 2023., 2023
Accurate identification of the tribes to which bovid fossils belong is essential for paleoecological reconstructions of African paleontological sites. Dentition is the most reliable identification of bovid tribe and genus. Here we implement several successful computer vision methods to classify images of African bovid teeth and show that 92% of the ...

Strategies, costs and counter-strategies to sexual coercion. [PDF]

Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc
ABSTRACT Sexual conflict, the conflict between the evolutionary interests of females and males over mating, occasionally results in the evolution of traits favourable for one sex and adverse for the other. In this context, males can use sexual coercion to increase their mating success, at the expense of their female targets' mate choice.
