Jungle Cats and Leopard Cats: Distribution, Occupancy Modeling, and Activity Patterns in Bardia National Park, Nepal

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Camera trap captured photographs from the study area, on the left is the jungle cat, and on the right is the leopard cat. ABSTRACT Small cats play a vital role in maintaining ecological balances. Inadequate knowledge based on their habitat preference and interspecific competition has hindered the effective conservation initiatives. We studied occupancy

Analytical Methods for Chemical and Sensory Characterization of Scent-Markings in Large Wild Mammals: A Review

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.

Spatiotemporal Distribution Patterns of Plateau Foxes and Their Lagomorph Prey in Baqing County, Tibet

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Our study suggests pronounced spatiotemporal niche differentiation as a mechanism facilitating two mesocarnivores' coexistence, and enhances our understanding of the mechanisms underlying sympatric coexistence on the Tibetan Plateau. ABSTRACT Predation by carnivores is a fundamental driver of species evolution, shaping interspecific spatiotemporal ...

Planning tiger recovery: Understanding intraspecific variation for effective conservation [PDF]

, 2015
Although significantly more money is spent on the conservation of tigers than on any other threatened species, today only 3200 to 3600 tigers roam the forests of Asia, occupying only 7% of their historical range.

Global determinants of home range sizes in felids: Evidence of human disturbance impact

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 4, Page 697-711, April 2026.
This study is the first to demonstrate the influence of anthropogenic factors and species richness in felids on home range size across the entire felid taxon. Felids are a taxon of major interest in conservation biology, and gaining a comprehensive view of their spatial ecology will help derive global conservation recommendations.

Niche overlap and competition potential among tigers (Panthera tigris), sabertoothed cats (Homotherium ultimum, Hemimachairodus zwierzyckii) and Merriam's Dog (Megacyon merriami) in the Pleistocene of Java [PDF]

, 2015
On Java during the Pleistocene, tigers of more than 300 kg occurred, but these are restricted to a single Late Pleistocene faunal unit, while Early and Middle Pleistocene tigers possessed body masses comparable to those of historic Javanese and extant ...

Ecological Factors at a Fine Spatial Scale Influencing Leopard (Panthera pardus) Habitat Use in the Bardia–Banke Complex, Nepal

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Common leopard (Panthera pardus) photographed in camera traps in Bardia National Park, Nepal. ABSTRACT Conservation of large carnivores like leopard requires the clear knowledge of the spatial ecology of leopards (Panthera pardus), especially in larger and interconnected habitats to inform effective conservation planning.

When people are away the cats will play: African leopards alter visitation patterns at a safari guest lodge in association with the COVID-19 quietus on Loisaba Conservancy, Kenya

Global Ecology and Conservation
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly reduced human activity within protected areas during periods of government lockdowns, providing a natural experiment to study animal response to reduced human activity.
