Feral cats and habitat degradation drive mammal declines in northwestern Australia: An expert elicitation to prioritize management actions

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
A literature review and expert elicitation identified mammal declines in northwestern Australia are predominantly driven by feral cat predation and habitat degradation from feral livestock and fire mismanagement. We found that management actions aimed at reducing the density of feral livestock and improving fire regimes are most likely to provide ...

Is Paw Preference in Rats Influenced by Environmental Novelty?

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
This study aimed to investigate the effect of environmental novelty during adolescence and adulthood on the paw preference in rats. Therefore, rats experienced a regular enrichment change and were repeatedly tested for their paw preference. We found that a regular enrichment change did not alter their behavioural lateralisation.

Species traits modulate ecological release in island red devil spiders (Araneae: Dysderidae)

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We studied the species ability to undergo an ecological release process in the red devil spiders (Araneae: Dysderidae) when colonising species‐depauperate environments, focusing on different aspects of their niche. We have found that the ability to expand their niche is highly dependent on the species trophic strategy, with specialist species being ...
