Home range shifts and habitat selection across life‐history stages in grey partridges

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how birds use space throughout the year is essential for effective conservation planning, even in resident species. We investigated seasonal space use in a Central European population of grey partridges Perdix perdix, a rapidly declining residential farmland bird.

Selectivity and efficiency of predator control methods: a case study from a Mediterranean hunting ground

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Predator control is a widely used management tool worldwide to reduce the impact of opportunistic predatory species, but in some contexts where predators are controlled to reduce negative impacts on game species, there are concerns about the selectivity and efficiency.

Evaluation of factors affecting greater prairie‐chicken nest and brood survival

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Greater prairie‐chickens Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus in the Flint Hills ecoregion select recently burned grasslands for brooding and nest in areas that have been unburned for 1–3 years, suggesting the need for a mosaic of burn patches. However, it is unknown how patch area, configuration, and proximity to edges within such mosaics affect reproductive ...

Chronic wasting disease is associated with elevated cortisol concentrations in a white‐tailed deer population

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many clinical signs of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in white‐tailed deer Odocoileus virginianus are consistent with those of chronic stress including hyperexcitability, head tremors, teeth grinding, pacing, excessive salivation, drinking, and urination. Deer with CWD‐positive (CWD+) status are more likely to exhibit poor body condition and to die, and

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.
