Navigating challenges in prosthodontic rehabilitation after long‐term delay following fibula free flap reconstruction with a unique overlay removable prosthesis and large vertical dimension increase

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract This case report highlights the experience of one maxillofacial surgical patient who delayed prosthodontic treatment for 7 years as they saved to self‐fund access to a subsidized prosthodontic service. Without the benefit of a restored opposing dentition for a prolonged period of time, maxillary occlusal plane disruption occurred as a ...

When Calves Get Vulnerable, Ocelots (Leopardus pardalis) Get Bold: A Camera Trap Record of Opportunistic Foraging in a Fragmented Landscape

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
We report the first confirmed record of an ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) dragging a newborn calf in a degraded forest fragment of southeastern Brazil. Using camera trap records, we reveal an opportunistic foraging event involving a vulnerable domestic prey within a highly fragmented landscape.

Scat DNA Applications for Low‐Density Carnivore Survey: Techniques, Efficiency and Future Directions

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
We reviewed 338 studies encompassing mostly Felidae, Canidae and Mustelidae species throughout the world, confirming scat DNA as a reliable genetic source for many applications. The findings here offer guidance for future studies on low‐density carnivores, helping to design cost‐effective research and improving data quality for conservation efforts ...

The American Black Bear (Ursus americanus) as an Apex Predator: Investigating the Ecological Role of the World's Most Abundant Large Carnivore

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
Black bears as apex predators. American black bears can (1) produce top‐down effects on ungulates equal to or exceeding those of typical apex predators and (2) modify the spatiotemporal behaviour of other carnivores, including pumas and coyotes. We argue that the term ‘apex predator’ is highly context dependent and not a species‐wide status.

CAN DOMESTICATION OF WILDLIFE LEAD TO CONSERVATION? THE ECONOMICS OF TIGER FARMING IN CHINA [PDF]

Tigers are a threatened species that might soon disappear in the wild. Not only are tigers threatened by deteriorating and declining habitat, but poachers continue to kill tigers for traditional medicine, decoration pieces and so on.

Jaguar Density at the Northeastern Limit of Its Distribution in Mexico

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study presents the first estimate of jaguar density in northeastern Mexico using a spatial capture–recapture model with random thinning, which incorporates both identified and unidentified camera trap detections. Conducted over 91 days with 104 cameras, the model yielded a density of 1.29 individuals per 100 km2 in the El Cielo–Sierra de Tamalave ...

White‐Tailed Deer Baiting Altered Black Bear Site Use but Not Movements or Range Size

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Black bears (Ursus americanus) in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, USA visited sites more often and for longer durations following the application of bait targeting white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). However, black bear home ranges and movement rates were not influenced by the application of bait.

Leopards Exhibit Nuanced Predation Patterns but Rely on Wild Prey in a Human‐Dominated Agricultural Landscape in the Central Highlands of Sri Lanka

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
The Sri Lankan endemic subspecies of leopard (Panthera pardus kotiya) is facing intensifying human–leopard interactions in unprotected highlands, from where 107 scat samples indicated its wide‐ranging diet of 17 prey species, the black‐naped hare (Lepus nigricollis) being the favorite, while medium‐sized prey such as barking deer (Muntiacus malabaricus)

Light Paths and Dark Valleys: Topographic Complexity and Mammal Occupancy in a Semi‐Arid Mountain Landscape

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Topographically complex mountainous regions are critical for biodiversity conservation, supporting high beta diversity, endemic species, and essential ecosystem services. Despite their importance, the fine‐scale effects of topographic metrics such as slope, ruggedness, and solar gain on mammal habitat use remain poorly understood.
