Subsistence hunting shapes the spatial variation of jaguar densities in community‐managed forests

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Jaguars and people can coexist in community‐managed forests, but distance matters. In Guatemala's Maya Biosphere Reserve, jaguar numbers increased markedly in areas harder to reach on foot, yet jaguars were still found near communities, showing that responsibly managed forests can support jaguar populations while allowing people to maintain traditional

Fecal DNA Identifies a Disjunct Population of an Endemic Deer (Mazama jucunda) From the Atlantic Forest, Brazil

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Limited knowledge of brocket deer distribution persists due to their elusive behavior and the morphological similarities among species. A population of red brocket deer (genus Mazama) was recently discovered in the Rio Doce State Park (PERD), a protected area within the Brazilian Atlantic Forest; however, species‐level identification was ...

Too Few, Too Many, or Just Right? Optimizing Sample Sizes for Population‐Level Inferences in Animal Tracking Projects

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We present a flexible workflow to determine optimal sample sizes in animal tracking studies, balancing sampling duration, interval, and number of tagged individuals. Integrated into an R package and Shiny application, it supports rigorous and cost‐effective study design to improve inferences and inform conservation, while considering logistical and ...

Effects of selective harvest on antler size of white‐tailed deer in Texas, USA

Wildlife Monographs, Volume 222, Issue 1, June 2026.
We conducted 20 years of experiments on the selective harvest of white‐tailed deer by antler size, judged inferior, in 2 areas of South Texas, USA. Selective harvest increased the phenotypic antler size of older males in one study area but not the other. There was little evidence of evolution resulting from selective harvesting. Abstract There has been

When “Rescue” Means Exile: The Urgency of Science‐Based Protocols for Large Carnivore Interactions and Coexistence in the Neotropics

Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 233-234, June 2026.
Using the recent case of an Andean jaguar translocated hundreds of kilometers to a distinct savanna ecosystem in Colombia, we critique the prevalent “Reactive Removal” model often framed misleadingly as “rescue.” We contrast this approach, which disregards local adaptation, creates ecosystem mismatches, and blocks natural range recovery, with a needed “
