Why wolves walk – drivers of daily movement in a social large carnivore

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Animal movement patterns are influenced by a range of extrinsic and intrinsic factors, including the distribution of resources, human disturbance, landscape connectivity, species interactions, and individual traits. We examined factors associated with daily movement distance (DMD) and linearity in 20 territorial Scandinavian wolves Canis lupus during ...

Variation in lion population densities across the Greater Kafue Ecosystem, Zambia: Lessons for landscape‐scale monitoring

Ecological Solutions and Evidence
The Greater Kafue Ecosystem (GKE) is a large protected area complex in Zambia, spanning over 65,000 km2. It comprises Kafue National Park (KNP, measuring over 22,000 km2) and nine surrounding community‐managed Game Management Areas (GMAs).

Estimating large carnivore populations in an arid fenced reserve using spatial capture–recapture modelling

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
In fenced protected areas where large carnivore populations persist or have been restored through reintroduction, population monitoring is essential to inform management. Robust density estimates are particularly important given the strong influence of large carnivores on ecosystem processes, yet such data remain scarce for arid systems where ...

Cortisol concentrations in hair are biomarkers of health status and seasonal change, but not urbanisation, in wolves

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wolves have reclaimed much of their former range in Europe, including areas with a high human footprint, yet the physiological impacts of human‐associated stressors remain poorly understood. We first examined methodological factors affecting hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in wolves by using a ‘shave/re‐shave' design to assess hair growth rate and ...

Livestock grazing and geodiversity modulate wild herbivore distributions in an African community conservation area

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The rapid decline of African wildlife populations demands immediate action to mitigate further losses and restore ecosystems. A key factor influencing wildlife distribution is the relationship between the energetic needs of species and the availability of forage, both in terms of quality and quantity.

Chronic wasting disease is associated with elevated cortisol concentrations in a white‐tailed deer population

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many clinical signs of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in white‐tailed deer Odocoileus virginianus are consistent with those of chronic stress including hyperexcitability, head tremors, teeth grinding, pacing, excessive salivation, drinking, and urination. Deer with CWD‐positive (CWD+) status are more likely to exhibit poor body condition and to die, and

Prevalence of Eight Viruses in Captive Amur Tigers (Panthera tigris altaica) From Harbin, China 中国哈尔滨市圈养东北虎8种病毒的流行

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
The Amur tiger, an endangered flagship species mainly found in the Russia Far East and Northeastern China, holds immense biological importance, and has been listed under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).

Decision‐centered systems for the future of wildlife conservation

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
This paper defines decision‐centered systems that align institutions, organizations, and science around explicit wildlife conservation decisions, so knowledge needs are decision‐driven, evidence informs analysis, and success is judged by conservation outcomes.
