Drivers of change in human–wildlife relationships: Southern Africa as an example
People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2233-2250, July 2026.Abstract Human–wildlife relationships (HWRs) are changing globally in response to shifts in ecological dynamics and societal values, often resulting in contestation. With an increasing need to enable human–wildlife coexistence, it is essential to better understand the drivers of change in HWRs.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.This cross‐sectional study reports the prevalence and molecular characterisation of Cryptosporidium spp. and Giardia duodenalis in Algerian equines. C. equi and C. hominis were detected for the first time in Algerian horses and donkeys, respectively, and equines are identified as potential sources of zoonotic C. parvum subtypes.

A Model for the Evolution of Pinniped Polygyny [PDF]
Evolution, 1970 Most persons who study the breeding behavior of seals and sea lions yield to the temptation to theorize about the evolution of the remarkable polygyny and impressive sexual dimorphism shown by these animals. I recently participated (Peterson and Bartholomew, 1967) in this long-standing and highly inferential tradition by helping to outline a verbal ...

Assessing the Underwater Impact of Aerodynamic Noise From Offshore Wind Turbines
Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT The growing demand for offshore wind energy has led to a significant increase in wind turbine size and to the development of large‐scale wind farms, often comprising 100–150 turbines. However, the environmental impact of underwater noise emissions remains largely unaddressed.

Wind, waves, wing loading and the flight energetics of giant petrels
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1979-1993, July 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Wind is a major factor driving seabird movement and energetics, the effects of which are modulated by morphology. Developments in tagging technology now make it possible to test predictions from aerodynamic theory about the effects of wind on flight performance in free ...

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Arctocephalus pusillus (the brown fur seal) has historically experienced population fluctuations associated with glacial cycles and anthropogenic exploitation. Previous mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and microsatellite analyses suggested a post‐glacial population expansion in A.

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT As breath‐hold divers, marine mammals must coordinate their use of both aerobic and anaerobic metabolism to maximize their time at depth. One indication of the relative reliance between these two energy‐producing systems is the aerobic dive limit (ADL), defined as the dive duration where post‐dive blood lactate concentrations surpass resting ...

Killer Whales in the Central Tropical Pacific: Occurrence, Resightings, Morphology, and Acoustics
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Compared to their well‐studied coastal temperate counterparts, killer whales (Orcinus orca) in tropical‐subtropical and oceanic areas are under‐documented. We used sighting, photo‐identification, and acoustic data of killer whales in the central tropical Pacific (CTP), collected from multiple platforms between 2002 and 2023, to assess their ...

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT West Coast Transient (WCT) killer whales (Orcinus orca rectipinnus) hunt marine mammals along the west coast of North America from California to southeastern Alaska. However, little information is available on their seasonal use of nearshore areas and the relative importance of different parts of their range.
