Cougar population status and range expansion in Alberta during 1991–2010

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2014
In Alberta, Canada, number of cougar (Puma concolor) mortalities caused by humans has increased rapidly over the past 2 decades. Management agencies sometimes use human‐caused mortalities as an index of cougar population trend, which would indicate an ...

Interconnection, Obligation, Solar Power, and the Remaking of Energy Citizens on and off the Grid in California

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 2, Page 359-368, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Electricity grid infrastructures shape future publics and the contours of political belonging or exclusion, including citizenship. But in fire‐prone, more precariously grid‐connected regions in California, experiments with micro‐ and home nanogrids, subsidized by the state and built in many cases with Tesla products, provide new opportunities ...

Validation of Immunoassays for Total Thyroxine and Free Thyroxine and Age and Sex‐Related Variation in Thyroid Hormone Serum Concentrations in Orangutans (Pongo sp.)

open access: yesJournal of Medical Primatology, Volume 55, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Thyroid disease is reported in orangutans, but to properly diagnose and manage these disorders, reference intervals for circulating thyroid hormones are needed. Methods Commercial immunoassay kits for total thyroxine (TT4) and free thyroxine (FT4) were validated for use in orangutans (Pongo spp.).

Evolutionary and Ecological Determinants of the Phenology of Births in Wild Large Herbivores, a Systematic Review

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 2, June 2026.
This semi‐systematic review supports the two dominant drivers of birth phenology: the seasonality and predation hypotheses. Even though there is evidence of their importance, the effects of female, offspring and population characteristics remain marginally accounted for. Asian and South and Central American species are currently understudied.

The Importance of Individual Body Condition in Mammalian Behavioural Responses to Disturbance

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 2, June 2026.
Body condition, shaped by the balance between energy demands and reserves, predictably shapes mammalian disturbance responses. Poor‐condition individuals adopt needs‐based strategies, accepting greater risks to meet immediate energetic needs, while good‐condition individuals follow asset‐protection strategies, minimizing risks to protect their survival

Variable terrestrial GPS telemetry detection rates: Addressing the probability of successful acquisitions

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2017
Studies using global positioning system (GPS) telemetry rarely result in 100% fix success rates (FSR), which may bias datasets because data loss is systematic rather than a random process.

Corticosterone as a Physiological Biomarker: Decoding the Environment‐Cort‐Energy Paradigm

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Corticosterone (cort) is increasingly used as a biomarker in wildlife conservation, though debate remains over which measures best capture physiological and environmental relationships. Using structural equation modeling on a 14‐year dataset, we evaluated the total hormone, free hormone, and CBG profile hypotheses linking cort, energetic state, and ...

Assessment of the Role of Fire Regime as a Determinant of Habitat Selection by Medium‐Sized Grazers in a West African Savanna

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Fire is an important driver of habitat selection by herbivores species and savannah ecology. The present study aims at assessing the fire role in determining the habitat selection by grazer species. Our results reveal that the majority of grazer species studied displayed a strong occurrences inclination towards recently burned areas during the season ...
