Assessing the umbrella value of a range-wide conservation network for Jaguars (Panthera onca) [PDF]

, 2016
Umbrella species are employed as conservation short-cuts for the design of reserves or reserve networks. However, empirical data on the effectiveness of umbrellas is equivocal, which has prevented more widespread application of this conservation strategy.

Efficiency and effectiveness in representative reserve design in Canada: the contribution of existing protected areas [PDF]

, 2009
To be effective, reserve networks should represent all target species in protected areas that are large enough to ensure species persistence. Given limited resources to set aside protected areas for biodiversity conservation, and competing land uses, a

One Health against the extinction of the mountain tapir (Tapirus pinchaque) in the Central Andes of Colombia

CABI One Health
Colombia is the only country that supports populations of three tapir species. Among them, the mountain tapir (Tapirus pinchaque) is classified as Endangered (EN) due to the rapid transformation of its natural habitats. This threat is further exacerbated

The Gelasian (Late Villanyan-MN17) diversified micromammal assemblage with Mimomys pliocaenicus from Coste San Giacomo (Anagni basin, central Italy), taxonomy and comparison with selected european sites [PDF]

, 2015
The Gelasian site of Coste San Giacomo (CSG) (central Italy) provides a unique opportunity to investigate the faunal and environmental changes occurred in Mediterranean Europe during the Early Pleistocene. The finding of both large and small mammal fauna

Deciphering seed dispersal decisions: Size, not tannin content, drives seed fate and survival in a tropical forest

Ecosphere, 2019
Scatter‐hoarding animals can dramatically affect plant survival by depositing seeds in favorable microhabitats away from parent plants (seed dispersal) and by consuming seeds (seed predation).

Rapid 18F-FDG Uptake in Brain of Awake, Behaving Rat and Anesthetized Chicken has Implications for Behavioral PET Studies in Species With High Metabolisms

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018
Brain-behavior studies using 18F-FDG PET aim to reveal brain regions that become active during behavior. In standard protocols, 18F-FDG is injected, the behavior is executed during 30–60 min of tracer uptake, and then the animal is anesthetized and ...
