An autonomous network of acoustic detectors to map tiger risk by eavesdropping on prey alarm calls
Tiger population recovery brings with it increased fatalities from human‐tiger conflict. We describe a network of autonomous intelligent passive acoustic sensors that monitor the forest for deer alarm calls as a proxy for tiger risk and provide a risk map to local communities in real‐time.

Insights on the role of forest cover and on the changes in forest cover on thirty-five endangered mammal species distributions [PDF]
The changes in forest cover can determine the survival of terrestrial endangered mammal species in the wild. This study assessed the impacts of forest cover changes on endangered mammal species distribution at global scale aiming to understand how the ...

ABSTRACT Ascidians are invertebrates that occupy a key phylogenetic position as a sister group of the vertebrates. The organization of their central nervous system (CNS), with cortex and medulla, indicates a plesiomorphic character of the gray and white matter of vertebrates, making this group of animals useful for studies of neurodegenerative events ...

Predator populations persisting in desert landscapes may be especially vulnerable to habitat fragmentation and changing climates, but many are chronically understudied and at risk of extirpation.

The impact of climate change on the structure of Pleistocene mammoth steppe food webs
Species interactions shape predator-prey networks, impacting community structure and, potentially, ecological dynamics. It is likely that global climatic perturbations that occur over long periods of time have a significant impact on species interactions

Microbiota composition of the dorsal patch of reproductive male Leptonycteris yerbabuenae. [PDF]
Bacteria and other types of microbes interact with their hosts in several ways, including metabolic pathways, development, and complex behavioral processes such as mate recognition.

Ever‐growing human activities present an active and continuing threat to many species throughout the world. Nevertheless, concerted conservation efforts in some regions have balanced these threats and allowed endangered species to recolonise former parts of their original ranges and reverse their decline.

Una revisión preliminar del estatus de conocimiento de los félidos argentinos [PDF]
En Argentina ocurren 10 especies de félidos silvestres (el 28% del total mundial). A pesar de que el Grupo de Especialistas en Félidos de la UICN ha clasificado como bueno el estado de conservación de los felinos argentinos, esta categorización utilizó ...
