Evaluating Feral Swine Eradication and Control Pilot Program Impact on Crop Indemnities

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 160-168, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The 2018 Farm Bill established the Feral Swine Eradication and Control Pilot Program (FSCP), which was focused on removing feral hogs and restoring damaged property. We conduct a quasi‐experimental analysis of FSCP on crop damage using crop insurance data and a staggered difference‐in‐difference model.

The Historical and Overlooked Collapse of Medicinal Leeches in Spain

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Leeches in genus Hirudo have been used in medicine since ancient times, but increased exploitation during the 19th century led to the depletion of several populations in Europe. A compilation of Hirudo records in Spain (H. troctina Johnson, 1816 and H. verbana Carena, 1820) show that the genus was more commonly mentioned and widely distributed

A Dangerous Prey Fish? Brachyspira‐Rich Gastrointestinal Microbiota in Pompano Dolphinfish From Neritic and Deep Waters of the South China Sea

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study reveals an unexpectedly simplified, Brachyspira‐dominated gastrointestinal microbiota in pompano dolphinfish from both neritic and deep‐sea habitats of the South China Sea. Environmental DNA and functional analyses suggest these fish may acquire potential pathogens in anthropogenically influenced coastal waters and transport them offshore ...

On the Limits of Alpine Plants: A Systematic Review of the Factors Behind Species' Elevational Range Limits

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This systematic review of 107 studies on the factors behind the elevational range limits of alpine vascular plants shows a persistent emphasis on upper limits and abiotic factors, especially temperature, while work at lower limits is more evenly distributed across water availability, plant–plant interactions, and selection/local adaptation.

Coyote Range Expansion in the Human‐Modified Tropics of Mesoamerica

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Coyotes have expanded their range into southeastern Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize, increasingly occupying human‐modified landscapes. This expansion is ongoing, with rising detection rates over time and records in both disturbed and forested environments, highlighting a paradox where anthropogenic change enables native carnivore expansion.
