Experimental lure design reveals the best attractants for increasing detection of multiple mesocarnivores

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many mesocarnivores have low detection rates that hinder practitioners' abilities to implement effective monitoring strategies. Using olfactory attractants (i.e. lures) may increase detection rates, but variation in effects among species is not well understood.

The taxonomic status of the Mexican oak Quercus undata (Fagaceae, Quercus, Section Quercus)

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2011
Quercus undata Trel. (Fagaceae, Quercus, Section Quercus) has a complex taxonomic and nomenclaturalhistory. Intensive sampling of oaks at the type locality of Q. undata Trel. in Durango, Mexico and evaluation ofherbarium specimens and plants in the field indicate that Q. undata represents variation in Quercus chihuahuensis Trel.in white oak communities

Nests in trees are as good as or better than cliffs for two formerly persecuted, primarily cliff nesting eagles in Spain: a cautionary tale in defining the habitat of range‐restricted or threatened species

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
In the late‐20th century, golden and Bonelli's eagles suffered population declines on the Iberian Peninsula, partly due to human persecution. Habitat assessments – especially for Bonelli's eagles – always found or assumed strong associations with cliffs that provided nesting sites.

Tradeoffs between brain and digestive tissues across elevations in Typhlomys daloushanensis: evidence for sexual dimorphism

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
To cope with highly stochastic and/or heterogeneous environmental conditions, animals must balance energy resource allocation across physiological processes. The digestive tract and brain exhibit structural variations under strong developmental and selective pressures that vary across environmental gradients both between and within species.

A Case Report on Rehabilitation of the Asiatic Black Bear (Ursus thibetanus ussuricus) in the Wild 亚洲黑熊 (Ursus thibetanus ussuricus) 野外放归野化案例报告

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Asiatic black bears in Russia face conservation threats such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, which exacerbate food shortages caused by crop failures. This study explores an innovative approach to rehabilitating bears that abandon hibernation in mid‐winter due to extreme exhaustion by providing supplemental food near their den sites.
