Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.In this study, we systematically analyzed the utilization patterns of Chinese pangolin burrows by sympatric species in Guangdong Province, China, including differences in species composition using burrow mounds and burrow tunnels. We found that repeated visits to burrows by Chinese pangolin promoted the use of burrows by sympatric species, suggesting ...

Consistent Choice of Prey Source Habitat Across Diverse Landscapes by a Selective Insectivorous Bat
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.After analyzing the diet of the greater horseshoe bats in three distinct colonies, we identified significant spatial and temporal differences, particularly noting a stronger reliance on riparian habitats in Mediterranean areas. The species exhibits great ecological adaptability with strong plasticity in prey source habitats, shifting preferences among ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Climate change and anthropogenic activities drive antagonistic degradation of landscape connectivity for endangered François’ langur (1987–2024), causing 48.8% habitat loss, north‐south fragmentation, and centroid migration (1.2 km/yr). Despite protected areas buffering connectivity, static management fails dynamic priority habitats; we propose ...

OccuGAMs: Non‐linear occupancy and abundance modelling with imperfect detection
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Hierarchical occupancy and abundance models (HOAMs) have become a leading approach for inferring wildlife population dynamics because they explicitly account for imperfect detection. HOAMs are suitable for sampling approaches that produce detection histories from repeated visits to the same sites, including direct observations (e.g. bird point

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We assess tiger (Panthera tigris) population connectivity potential in 11 Southeast Asian landscapes in relation to landscape configuration, broad‐scale recovery potential, vulnerabilities in habitat structure, and management priorities. Broad‐scale connectivity potential in the region was represented by only four contiguous core habitat patches within
