Temporally‐indexed multi‐species density impact functions: Quantifying timing and impact of invasive predators on seabird breeding success

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Conserving threatened species often requires effective predator suppression strategies, particularly on islands where introduced predators pose significant threats. Density‐impact functions provide a framework to quantify the relationships between predator abundance and impact but are currently limited to a single species with invariant impact.

Island‐restricted reptiles are more threatened but less studied than their mainland counterparts

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Reptiles are highly diverse on islands, yet there is no comprehensive overview of island‐restricted reptiles (IRRs) regarding their distribution, threat status, and research efforts. Our assessment revealed that despite IRRs comprising nearly a quarter of global reptile species and 30.8% being threatened, only 7.2% of the literature focuses on them ...

Enhancing data justice in community‐led conservation: A case study from Indonesian Borneo

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity conservation is undergoing a process of datafication, driven by calls for evidence‐based conservation and rapid technological advances. These developments promise to enhance conservation efforts, but they also raise ethical questions.

Cold‐blooded commerce: Characterizing and predicting trade in Australian squamates

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Despite a national ban on native wildlife exports, Australian reptile species continue to appear in international trade. Using boosted regression trees, we found that large body sizes and taxonomic family, rather than color or patterning, best predicted trade presence. We identified 59 species likely to be targeted in the future, providing key insights
