New to town: home range size, habitat selection and behavioral adaptations by urban hares
European hares Lepus europaeus have recently been shown to colonize urban areas in different parts of Europe. This appears to be a novel phenomenon, and little is known about the space use and behavioral adaptations of hares living in urban areas. Here, we describe the first findings concerning home range sizes from GPS‐collared hares (n = 3) in Aarhus

Overly optimistic adder, Vipera berus (Linnaeus, 1758), killing and intending to swallow an oversized young hare, Lepus europaeus Pallas, 1778 [PDF]
In snakes, predatory attacks on oversized prey are not uncommon. Here, we describe an adult female Vipera berus that likely bit and intended to swallow an oversized young hare, Lepus europaeus.

Green City and connected habitats? Assessing the impact of urbanization on mammal diversity
As urban expansion fragments natural habitats, there is a growing concern to improve green patch connectivity for biodiversity within cities globally. Focusing on Freiburg, Germany, one of the greenest cities in Europe, we investigated how patch connectivity is shaping mammal occurrences and species‐specific consequences in urban areas. We particularly

Wildlife in urban areas is often a source of conflict, yet relatively few efforts have been directed toward fostering coexistence in these human‐dominated landscapes. While previous research has focused on socio‐demographic factors influencing perceptions of wildlife, the role of specific animal traits in shaping acceptance remains underexplored.

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review
The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.
