The cat's out of the bag: Examining US wildlife trade of felids from 2000 to 2020
Felids feature heavily in the wildlife trade, and an investigation into LEMIS data from 2000 to 2020 showed felid imports were dominated by bobcats and Canada lynx for fur, while tigers and leopards were the most commonly traded cats in the illegal market, primarily as medicinal products.

Genomic Insights Into the Body Size Evolution in Felidae (Mammalia: Carnivora)
This study performed reannotation of the genomes of two felid species and conducted the first genomic analysis of body size variation and evolution in Felidae. Our results demonstrate that felid body size evolution is driven by adaptive changes in both core signaling pathways and individual key genes.

Abstract Resource selection studies have become increasingly common since the advent of modern animal tracking equipment, yet most studies fail to examine how selection affects vital rates or population growth (i.e., fitness). Without investigating if optimal habitat selection is facilitated in a system, conservation efforts may promote ineffective ...
