Balancing High Densities and Conservation Targets to Optimise Koala Management Strategies
The koala population in South Australia's Mount Lofty Ranges is increasing, raising concerns about overbrowsing and the need for sustainable management. Using combined demographic, point‐process, and species distribution models, we projected koala populations over 25 years to evaluate fertility‐control strategies.

The common pheasant heart is elongated and conical, with thicker left ventricular walls and a complex atrioventricular valve structure. Purkinje fibres show strong desmin but no α‐SMA expression, providing detailed insights into cardiovascular morphology and adaptations in birds, supporting comparative and conservation studies.

Case Study: A Dexamethasone Suppression Test in Koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus)
With a dexamethasone suppression test, we aimed at determining the ability of the feedback loop to decrease the concentration of plasma cortisol in koalas. No cortisol suppression was observed, rather an increase in plasma cortisol concentration in all koalas. This was also reflected in the increase of cortisol metabolites in faeces.

Cicada as a food for mammals: a global review and implications for mammal behaviour and populations
Cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) are among the most important insect prey for many vertebrate predators, including birds and mammals, owing to their large size and high nutritional value. Although the ecological roles of cicadas as prey for birds have been well documented, the interactions between mammals and cicadas are relatively unknown.
