Using Behavioral Science to end the Tropical Forest Wild Meat Crisis, illustrated by a case example from Central Africa

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract In tropical forests today, hunting for food and income remains largely unsustainable, with adverse implications for biodiversity, ecological services, and human wellbeing. Even though our scientific knowledge of the issue has improved greatly in recent years, the situation on the ground has not. This Perspective presents our opinions and ideas

Bouncing back for promotability through recognition: Does having diversive curiosity matter?

European Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Are employees with career resilience more likely to get promoted? Building on the conservation of resources theory, we extend career resilience research to propose that resilient employees are more likely to receive recognition from others. This recognition then improves their promotion prospects.

A new species of jewel‐babbler (Cinclosomatidae: Ptilorrhoa) from the Southern Fold Mountains of Papua New Guinea

Ibis, EarlyView.
Based on distinctive morphological and vocal characters we describe a new species of jewel‐babbler (genus Ptilorrhoa) from the forested karst of the Southern Fold Mountains in Papua New Guinea. The description is based on camera trap data and is presented in accordance with ICZN Declaration 45.

Urban birds' detectability is affected by inter‐ and intraspecific variation in shyness

Ibis, EarlyView.
Detection probabilities differ between bird species as a function of their life history and ecological and behavioural traits, inevitably introducing bias in their abundance and occupancy estimates. However, the effects of behavioural traits such as species shyness and vigilance on detectability remain poorly understood.

Species‐specific behaviour and environmental drivers of trap interactions in wild ornamental fishes

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The harvest of animals from the wild is a pervasive selective force, especially in fisheries, where harvesting often targets individuals with specific traits. While most research has focused on large‐scale commercial or recreational fisheries, little attention has been paid to artisanal fisheries, particularly those targeting ornamental ...
