On the Brink, a Population of Hedgehogs in Central London
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.A small breeding population of hedgehogs survives in central London's Regent's Park (166 ha). A 10‐year survey (2014–2023) revealed a decline from an average of 28 individuals to just six in spring 2023, driven by low breeding success and high mortality.

Wild turkey roost selection is more consistently associated with tree traits than microclimate
Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.Animals must cope with a range of climatic conditions across seasons, and they can accomplish this by selecting habitats that are favourable for thermoregulation. Sheltering from environmental conditions can be particularly important for reducing energetic costs when animals are inactive, but the influence of microclimate on the fine‐scale selection of

Contemporary Evolution of an At‐Risk Stickleback Population During a Severe Drought
Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Populations can be granted conservation status because they harbour a set of unique traits, evolutionary histories, or ecological roles. Such populations are often isolated and specialised and, as such, can be particularly vulnerable to environmental disturbances.

Taxonomic and sex differences in sagittal cresting among gracile and robust capuchin monkeys
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 1, Page 53-61, January 2026.In this study, I show that there are interspecific differences in the frequency and pattern of sagittal cresting among six capuchin species. Four of the six species show sagittal cresting, with Cebus capucinus showing a different sagittal cresting pattern to that observed in three robust capuchin species. All four crested species show sexual dimorphism
