Guanaco (Lama guanicoe) mortality by entanglement in wire fences
Journal for Nature Conservation, 2012 Abstract Wire fences are widely used in rangelands around the world and may have a negative impact on wildlife that varies among species and habitats. The guanaco ( Lama guanicoe ) is the largest Patagonian ungulate and though entanglement in wire fences is frequently reported, its impact on guanaco populations has not been previously evaluated.

Contemporary Management of Human‐Caused Hybridization in Mammals: A Review
Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 4, December 2026.By reviewing studies on human‐mediated (i.e., anthropogenic) hybridization, we identify key management gaps, including inconsistent identification of admixed individuals, limited population‐level assessments, insufficient social engagement, and unclear management objectives.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.We document repeated surplus killing events by pumas (Puma concolor) affecting breeding colonies of Magellanic penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus) in Islote Lobos National Park, northern Patagonia, Argentina. During the 2025–2026 breeding season, at least 961 penguins were killed, representing the largest natural mortality event recorded in the colony ...

Sociability Under Anthropogenic Change: From Individual Behaviour to Population‐Level Consequences
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.Our review synthesises empirical and theoretical research on how anthropogenic environmental change reshapes animal social behaviour from individuals to populations. We use sociability as an individual‐level lens, distinguishing context‐dependent expression from repeatable interindividual differences and linking both to social relationships, network ...

Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain
Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...
