Intra- and Interspecific Spatial Temporal Interactions Drive Habitat Selection of Three Sympatric Top Predators. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
ABSTRACT The population distribution and habitat selection of top predators are critically important for species conservation and habitat management. While previous studies have identified environmental characteristics and food resources as factors influencing animal habitat selection, the roles of potential intra‐ and interspecific competition have ...

Rebreeding of Female Mountain Lions After Litter Mortality. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We documented rapid rebreeding by female mountain lions (Puma concolor) following litter loss, including the shortest known rebreeding interval to date. These observations highlight the importance of infanticide and intraguild competition in shaping female fitness and population dynamics.

The Role of Somatic Cell Synchronization in Nuclear Transfer and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Wild Felids. [PDF]

Zoo Biol
Cell cycle and cells subjected to synchronization in G0/G1. ABSTRACT Human interference reduces wild felid populations. Somatic cell nuclear transfer and the use of induced pluripotent stem cells are potential conservation strategies. To improve the efficiency of these strategies, it is essential to establish adequate protocols for the synchronization ...
