Changes in utilization of canal crossing structures by desert mammal communities during the COVID‐19 lockdown

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
We investigated desert mammals' utilization of canal wildlife crossing structures (WCSs) in Xinjiang, China, employing COVID‐19 lockdowns as a natural experiment to evaluate anthropogenic disturbance effects. Camera trap data for four focal species revealed shifts in encounter rates, activity patterns, and predator‐prey interactions across pandemic ...

Sapsucker Wells as a Keystone Nutritional Resource: Evaluating Methods for Detection of Secondary Sap Consumers

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
We used direct observations, camera traps, and environmental DNA (eDNA) to identify secondary consumers of sap from wells created by red‐naped (S. nuchalis) and Williamson's (S. thyroideus) sapsuckers among three groups of shrubs and trees in south‐central Colorado, USA.

Herbivory Dominates the Spring Diet of American Black Bears (Ursus americanus) in a Wood Bison (Bison bison athabascae) Neonatal Range, Suggesting Minimal Bison Consumption

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
In this study, we used scat analysis and DNA metabarcoding to analyze the spring diet of black bears in the neonatal range of a small, threatened wood bison herd in northeast Alberta to assess predation risk of neonate bison. Our results suggest that consumption rates of bison are low and that predation risk to neonate wood bison, during the RLBH's ...

兽类学基础知识——第九讲 兔形目概论

open access: yes野生动物学报, 1983
兔形目(Lagomorpha)字源来自希蜡文Lagoa-是兔子的意思,而-morpha是形状,Lagomorpha则是具有兔形的动物。我国古书的解释同样如此,如汉朝魏朗在《魏子》中即记有;“兔字篆文,象形”。即是像形文字,免字的形,也像兔子。但是,实际上,兔形目的外形并不均像兔子,全目分两个科:兔科(Leporidae)和鼠兔科(Ochotonidae)。兔科包括兔类(Hares)和穴兔(Rbbits)两大类群,确具兔形 ...

Modelling the influence of biotic factors on species distribution patterns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Biotic interactions can have large effects on species distributions yet their role in shaping species ranges is seldom explored due to historical difficulties in incorporating biotic factors into models without a priori knowledge on interspecific ...

The wildlife strikes back: determining the secondary strike risk associated with a mammal–aircraft collision

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 89, Issue 7, September 2025.
Wildlife‐aircraft collisions are a growing concern. This study at Dublin Airport investigated the secondary strike risk posed by scavengers using simulated hare‐strike events. Results showed that birds, especially hooded crows, detected carcasses faster than mammals, supporting the effectiveness of current rapid clean‐up protocols in minimizing ...
