Human Tolerance in Romanian Brown Bears (Ursus arctos): Access to Human Food Sources Can Lead to Changes in Bear Behaviour

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
In our study, we identified deficiencies in waste management that certain bears exploit to access easy food, leading to artificial food conditioning and increased tolerance to humans. Our analysis of urban surveillance footage revealed frequent bear visits to garbage bin islands, linked to improper use of protective measures, such as non‐activated ...

Evaluating the Potential of Four Native Ziziphus Species for Restoring Savanna‐Like Habitats in Jinsha River Under Climate Change

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
This study predicted the current and future distributions of four native Ziziphus species in the Jinsha River Basin, and also investigated their seed dormancy and germination characteristics. Based on a comprehensive assessment, Z. montana is the most suitable species for ecological restoration in the Jinsha River Basin, exhibiting high and stable ...

Density‐Dependent Response of Alpine Meadows to Plateau Zokor Disturbance on the Tibetan Plateau: Nonlinear Relationship and Ecological Thresholds

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
By quantifying the nonlinear response of alpine meadows to plateau zokor activity, we established a robust ecological safety threshold of 166 mounds·ha−1 for sustainable land management. These findings provide a quantitative basis for shifting from conventional “pest control” to adaptive management that maintains plateau zokor populations within limits

First record of a small dung beetle visiting apple flowers with prolonged flower‐handling behavior in Chile

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Dung beetles are typically associated with vertebrate dung, although some species occasionally exploit floral resources. However, interactions between dung beetles and crop flowers remain rarely documented worldwide. Here, we report the first record of the small dung beetle Ataenius opatroides (Blanchard, 1847) (Coleoptera: Aphodiinae ...

Can omnivores be considered keystone species? Bears as a study case

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract The functional roles of herbivores and carnivores in ecosystems have been relatively well studied: both can shape ecosystems through strong direct and indirect top‐down controls on other guilds. By contrast, the role omnivores play has been rarely explored, even though their diet spans several trophic levels and potentially has numerous ...
