Camera Trap Design Determines Taxa Detected at Carrion Sites. [PDF]
Ecol EvolIn this study, we demonstrated that camera trap orientation (i.e., horizontal and vertical) at carrion sites differed in their animal community composition and taxa associations. The vertical camera trap orientation was more likely to detect necrophagous invertebrates, while the horizontal orientation was more likely to detect white‐tailed deer.

Potential Distribution of Colonizing Nine-Banded Armadillos at Their Northern Range Edge
Diversity, 2021 The nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) has become a recent addition to the local fauna of Illinois as a response to habitat alteration and climate change. This range expansion has resulted in the presence of armadillos in areas not predicted by
