Survival and divergence in a small group: The extraordinary genomic history of the endangered Apennine brown bear stragglers [PDF]

, 2017
About 100 km east of Rome, in the central Apennine Mountains, a critically endangered population of ∼50 brown bears live in complete isolation. Mating outside this population is prevented by several 100 km of bear-free territories.

WildWing: An open‐source, autonomous and affordable UAS for animal behaviour video monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Drones have become invaluable tools for studying animal behaviour in the wild, enabling researchers to collect aerial video data of group‐living animals. However, manually piloting drones to track animal groups consistently is challenging due to complex factors such as terrain, vegetation, group spread and movement patterns. The variability in

Horses as Sources of Proprietary Information: Commercialization, Conservation, and Compensation Pursuant to the Convention on Biological Diversity [PDF]

, 2014
Horses indigenous to East and Southeast (E/SE) Asia, including native, landrace, feral, and wild populations, embody valuable genetic diversity. Conservation efforts for animals have largely been driven by humane altruism, with little consideration for ...

Close encounters of the friendly kind: pacific between‐group interactions in primates

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While intergroup conflict features prominently in the behavioural ecology literature, its antonym, intergroup peace, has been a rather neglected phenomenon until recently. Neighbourly relations and affiliative interactions are far from uncommon.

A High Density SNP Array for the Domestic Horse and Extant Perissodactyla: Utility for Association Mapping, Genetic Diversity, and Phylogeny Studies [PDF]

, 2012
An equine SNP genotyping array was developed and evaluated on a panel of samples representing 14 domestic horse breeds and 18 evolutionarily related species. More than 54,000 polymorphic SNPs provided an average inter-SNP spacing of ∼43 kb.

The prehistoric origins of the domestic horse and horseback riding [PDF]

, 2023
The findings of Librado et al. (2021) show that modern domestic horses (DOM2) emerged in the lower Don-Volga region. They imply that horseback riding drove selection that resulted in these horses and fuelled their initial dispersal, and also that DOM2 ...

Assessing the success of conservation translocation establishment: Post‐translocation demography of Nubian giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis camelopardalis) in Uganda

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Conservation translocations are crucial for restoring and bolstering wild populations of species that are either extirpated or rapidly declining. Evaluating their success requires understanding population ecology metrics and conducting long‐term monitoring, yet outcomes are often underreported.
