Cougar density on the Oregon Coast: Using dead recovery modeling in an open population
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.The primary objective of this study was to determine cougar density in western Oregon. Our results demonstrate that integrating DNA collected via bio‐darting, mandatory hunter‐harvest check‐ins, and GPS collar data into the OPCR2 is a reliable method for estimating cougar densities in densely forested coastal systems.

Understanding mammal avoidance of human settlements
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1504-1517, August 2026.Terrestrial mammals often avoid human settlements, but is this a result of human activity around buildings or the built infrastructure per se? Using data on animal movement before and during the COVID‐19 lockdowns, this paper disentangles these effects, showing how changes in human mobility affect animals' avoidance of buildings. Abstract Anthropogenic

Boreal predator co‐occurrences reveal shared use of seismic lines in a working landscape
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Interspecific interactions are an integral aspect of ecosystem functioning that may be disrupted in an increasingly anthropocentric world. Industrial landscape change creates a novel playing field on which these interactions take place, and a key ...

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Contemporary conservation goals have a greater chance of success when practitioners collaborate with Indigenous communities. The importance of such collaborations has spurred calls by Western and Indigenous researchers to engage in equitable coproduction of ecological research that integrates multiple ways of knowing.

Translocation effects on regional and local population viability and connectivity
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.Abstract Translocations and reintroductions aim to improve the viability of isolated populations and promote connectivity for large carnivores. However, there is no established framework for assessing their success. We used the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in western and central Europe to assess the impact of translocations on the viability of six ...

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.Translocations are increasingly used for species recovery but are often performed without considering how such actions will impact both recipient and source populations. Herein, we designed an analytical decision‐making framework and applied it to identify suitable translocation programs that promote population viability of both source and recipient ...

Are we there yet? Reliable occupancy modeling from AI‐labeled trail camera data
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.Even low false‐positive rates in AI‐labeled camera‐trap data can bias occupancy estimates, particularly for rare species. Our results show that false positive informed occupancy models can substantially improve inference, underscoring the need to evaluate AI classifiers according to the assumptions of downstream ecological analyses.
