Diet‐Driven Divergence in Gut Microbiota Variation Between Two Sympatric Gerbil Species
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Gut microbiota provide various benefits to their mammalian hosts; however, knowledge regarding interspecific differences in gut microecology remains limited. This study employed 16S rRNA sequencing combined with metagenomic functional prediction (potential functions or functional potential) to conduct a comparative analysis of the gut ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.Using camera trap data from a tropical rainforest, we show that the Asiatic brush‐tailed porcupine uses behavioral trade‐offs: avoiding full moons, preferring 15°C–22°C, and shifting activity to reduce conflict with predators/competitors. This plasticity reveals how it balances foraging efficiency and survival risks, offering insights into conserving ...

Allometry of scales in Chinese pangolins ( Manis pentadactyla ) and Malayan pangolins ( Manis javanica ) and application in judicial expertise [PDF]
, 2012 Pangolins are unique mammals in that they possess scales that serve a protective biological function. As an important raw material of traditional medicine, illegal trades of these scales are frequent and difficult to investigate or prosecute.

Burrow Selection by Temminck's Ground Pangolins (Smutsia temminckii) in Northern Botswana
African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT In arid and semi‐arid environments, many species use underground burrows for thermoregulation, reproduction, and to reduce predation risk. In Botswana, Temminck's ground pangolins (Smutsia temminckii) shelter in burrows during the day, and burrow density is thought to be a key indicator of habitat suitability for these animals.
