Strengthening urban deer management with structured decision making

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban deer management (UDM) decision‐makers face social, ecological, regulatory, and economic pressures when creating an agreeable deer management plan for stakeholders. Historically, decision making techniques (e.g. consensus‐based analyses) have not effectively balanced UDM elements leading to short‐lived management progress.

Integrating multiple surveys using state–space models improves inference of population trends for Illinois furbearers

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Long‐term population monitoring is fundamental to wildlife population management. Furbearer populations are often surveyed using multiple methods, but many estimates of their abundance, especially abundance indices, do not account for detection error, and lead to conflicting interpretations of population trends.

Dietary and Ranging Behavior of Semi‐Free Ranging Lemur catta and Varecia rubra at Myakka City Lemur Reserve, Florida, USA

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
Betsiboka, a female red ruffed lemur (Varecia rubra) eating Carolina redroot in the Tower forest. ABSTRACT Lemurs are severely threatened due to anthropogenic habitat loss and climate change. Therefore, understanding how lemurs adapt their diets to novel habitats is critically important for maintaining healthy wild populations and effectively managing ...

MIDAS: a methodological framework for high‐speed high‐energy diffraction microscopy data reduction. Part I: methodology

Acta Crystallographica Section A, EarlyView.
This paper details the complete methodological framework implemented in the MIDAS software for processing high‐energy diffraction microscopy (HEDM) data. We describe the specific algorithms, coordinate systems and physical models used for both far‐field and near‐field HEDM analysis.

Global meta‐analysis reveals urban‐associated behavioural differences among wild populations

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Urbanization drives rapid phenotypic change, yet broad patterns of behavioural responses remain unclear. Using a global phylogenetic meta‐analysis, we show urban populations exhibit increased boldness, aggression, exploration and activity—especially in birds—highlighting consistent behavioural shifts and revealing major taxonomic gaps that limit our ...
