Enemy release: loss of parasites in invasive freshwater bivalves Sinanodonta woodiana and Corbicula fluminea

Ecography, EarlyView.
Invasive freshwater bivalves harm native species, ecosystems and biodiversity, and incur economic costs. The enemy release hypothesis posits that invasive species are released from enemies during the invasion process, giving them a competitive advantage in the new environment.

Alpine ungulates adjust diel activity to the natural return of wolves amid anthropogenic pressures

Ecography, EarlyView.
As wolves recolonise their historical range across Europe, ungulates face predation once more – but in landscapes profoundly altered by human activity. This shift raises crucial questions about their capacity to express adaptive antipredator behaviours.

From shadows to data: first robust population assessment of snow leopards in Pakistan

Ecography, EarlyView.
The snow leopard Panthera uncia is a flagship species of the greater Himalayan region and symbolizes the integrity of this ecological system. Within the greater Himalayas, Pakistan holds special significance as the north of the country represents a confluence of three major mountain ranges (Hindu Kush, Pamir–Karakoram, and Himalaya).

How much species' biodiversity could area targets protect globally?

Ecography, EarlyView.
Protection targets for addressing biodiversity loss include protecting at least 30% of the land and ocean in ecologically representative areas, but do not specify how many or what proportion of species should be protected from extinction. Here, a systematic analysis of 77 880 marine, freshwater and terrestrial species indicates that all species could ...

Long‐term benefits of burns for large mammal habitat undermined by large, severe fires in the American West

Ecography, EarlyView.
Escalating wildfire frequency and severity are altering wildland habitats worldwide. Yet investigations into fire impacts on wildlife habitat rarely extend to the macroecological scales relevant to species conservation and global change processes. We evaluate the effects of wildfire on habitat quality and selection by large mammals spanning three ...
