Opium Cultivation Imperilling Endangered Species in Northern Laos
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.To avoid government eradication efforts, farmers in northeastern Laos shifted opium cultivation deep into a national park, causing a > 1000% increase in protected forest cleared for the crop between 2018 and 2022. This displacement directly threatened endangered species like white‐cheeked gibbons, elephants, and dholes by causing a rise in hunting ...

, 2008 The leopard or panther is a medium-sized cat with a length between1.85-2.15 m. It has short hairs and lacks the mane and the fringes of hair of the lion. Leopard sculptures appear to fall into two classes, one representing the leopard as the victim of a stabbing scene and one representing only the skin of the leopard.

Testing the Assumption That Tiger Population Recovery Increases Conflict Across Their Range
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Tiger population recovery is widely assumed to increase conflict with people, yet this assumption has rarely been examined using range‐wide evidence. Analysing data from ten tiger range countries between 2010 and 2025, we found no consistent evidence that tiger population recovery is associated with increased conflict incidents.

Sensors, 2014 In conjoining the disciplines of “ethology” and “chemistry” the field of “Ethochemistry” has been instituted. Ethochemistry is an effective tool in conservation efforts of endangered species and the understanding of behavioral patterns across all species.

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.We studied spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) encounters with livestock enclosures, an important but understudied stage of the livestock depredation process. Using camera traps, we examined how encounter probability and timing varied with rainfall, moonlight, and temperature. Our findings deepen our understanding of hyena behavior around livestock and may

Why we Should Study Solitary Species to Understand the Costs of Group‐Living
Ethology, EarlyView.It's easier to measure the benefits than the costs of a trait. Solitary species benefit by avoiding the costs of group living. Thus, measuring benefits of solitary living informs us about the costs of group living. ABSTRACT While for decades behavioral ecologists have studied the benefits of group living, measuring its costs has been more difficult. It
