Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

From patterns to predictions: a framework for the spatial epidemiology of wildlife diseases

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Wildlife diseases pose a significant threat to biodiversity conservation, public health, and livestock. Spatial epidemiology provides a robust framework to understand disease dynamics and guide policy and management. However, the rapid proliferation of spatial methods has largely occurred in isolation across disciplines, leaving the field without a ...

Let's Talk About Bone Cylinders. Taphonomy of Carnivores and Humans

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTBone cylinders are a distinctive structure predominantly produced by durophagous carnivoran species during the consumption of long bones, in which the diaphyseal canal remains intact while both epiphyses are removed or consumed. This study evaluates the significance of this morphology, traditionally attributed to extant and extinct hyena ...

Why wolves walk – drivers of daily movement in a social large carnivore

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Animal movement patterns are influenced by a range of extrinsic and intrinsic factors, including the distribution of resources, human disturbance, landscape connectivity, species interactions, and individual traits. We examined factors associated with daily movement distance (DMD) and linearity in 20 territorial Scandinavian wolves Canis lupus during ...
