Patterns and drivers of range filling of alien mammals in Europe

Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 9, September 2025.
Biological invasions are major drivers of biodiversity change. Alien mammals are particularly concerning in Europe, where their expansion remains unabated, though the driving factors are still unclear. Well‐documented introductions and distributions in this continent provide a unique opportunity to understand how human activities influenced this ...

Risky behavior of Asian black bears differs between sex and season in a landscape fragmented by roads

Journal of Zoology, Volume 326, Issue 4, Page 339-351, August 2025.
We investigated sex and seasonal differences in the road crossing behavior of Asian black bears (Ursus thibetanus) living in central Honshu Island, Japan, as an example of wildlife risk‐taking behavior in a highly fragmented landscape. Our results show that Asian black bears generally avoid crossing roads, and that there are seasonal differences in ...

Ice cover and partner removal increase movements of invasive mesopredator in the coastal island mosaic

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 3, July–September 2025.
Ice cover increases inter‐island movements of raccoon dogs, and partner removal as a management action increases the movement of raccoon dogs during the critical avian nesting season. Both need to be considered when managing invasive species in the island mosaic.

Human‐Driven Extinctions Rapidly Alter the Island Biodiversity Patterns of Large and Medium‐Sized Mammals in the Largest Archipelago of China

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Islands are regarded as ideal ecosystems for exploring biodiversity patterns. However, numerous islands have also suffered large numbers of species extinctions due to human activities. The extent to which such species extinctions have influenced our ability to understand biodiversity patterns, particularly the factors regulating island ...
