Studies on the biology of the brown hare (Lepus europaeus) with particular reference to behaviour [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Behaviour of the brown hare (Lepus europaeus) was studied on the Somerset levels, U.K., between 1977 and 1987. The hare is exclusively nocturnal when nights are longest and part-diurnal when they are shortest but the transition is not smooth.

Francisella tularensis in Wild Lagomorphs in Southern Spain’s Mediterranean Ecosystems

open access: yesAnimals
Francisella tularensis is a vector-borne zoonotic bacterium that causes tularemia, a disease of great importance for animal and public health. Although wild lagomorphs are considered one of the major reservoirs of this bacterium, information about the ...

Game target‐group: Implementing inhomogeneous Poisson point process to estimate animal abundance from harvest data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 170-182, January 2025.
Abstract Harvest data have the potential to be used as an abundance index due to its widespread availability and long‐term collection across large geographical areas. However, challenges such as the lack of hunting effort information, varying data resolutions and reporting biases hinder its direct use as an abundance proxy.

Domestic European Rabbits Oryctolagus cuniculus: A Super‐Highway for the Spread of Emergent Viral Diseases to Other Lagomorphs?

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
We propose that the worldwide spread of several viral diseases in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) is facilitated by domestic rabbit meat production and associated international trade. This view is based on published records of the transfer of rabbit haemorrhagic disease viruses (RHDV/RHDV2) between countries and supported by data from the Food

Post-glacial range revolutions in South European hares (Lepus spp.): Insights from ancient DNA and ecological niche modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
[Aim]: The distribution of hares (Lepus spp.) in southern Europe was markedly different at the Last Glacial Maximum. Historical hybridization during range replacements led to high frequencies of mtDNA introgression from Lepus timidus into populations of ...

To breed or not to breed: Territory occupancy is predicted by reproductive performance and habitat heterogeneity

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 34, Issue 8, December 2024.
Abstract Species life history and anthropogenic influence are important drivers of population performance and viability in human‐dominated ecosystems. How these factors affect habitat selection and occupancy in long‐lived species is an important topic for their conservation.

A comprehensive analysis of spatial and temporal patterns of anthropogenic adult mortality of Bonelli's eagles in eastern Spain

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 88, Issue 8, November 2024.
The risk of local extinction of Bonelli's eagles in eastern Spain is 99.2% in 100 years if management actions are not taken. Actions to reduce adult mortality, especially from anthropogenic sources, are urgently needed to preserve Bonelli's eagles in eastern Spain.

Exposure to Coxiella burnetii in Wild Lagomorphs in Spanish Mediterranean Ecosystems

open access: yesAnimals
Coxiella burnetii is an important zoonotic pathogen of worldwide distribution that can infect a wide range of wild and domestic species. The European wild rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) can play a role as a reservoir for this bacterium in certain ...
