Spatial capture‐recapture can improve environmental impact assessments for large carnivores

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 3, July–September 2025.
Most Environmental Impact Assessments for large carnivores rely on summary statistics or relative abundance indices, all of which ignore imperfect detection and may lead to biased and unreliable conclusions about population status and infrastructure impacts. By applying spatial capture‐recapture (SCR) models to georeferenced genetic data from wolves in

The Rapid Recovery of a Caatinga Dry Forest is Mediated by Disturbance‐Adapted Species

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 4, July 2025.
Overall, regenerating and old‐growth forest stands exhibited similar plant diversity across all ontogenetic stages, with a negligible role played by forest stand age, precipitation, and chronic human disturbance. Species exclusively recorded as adults or seeds were mostly dispersed by animals, indicating that several species fail in either dispersing ...

Claw growth rates in a subset of adult, indoor, domestic cats (Felis catus)

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 362-367, June 2025.
Background – Keratinised tissues, such as nails and claws, accumulate hormones over time; the claws' hormone concentrations are being explored as potential biomarkers. Timelines for hormone deposition can be established if claw growth rates are known. Hormone concentration within cat claws has been recently evaluated, yet the growth rates of cat claws ...
