Spatial signatures of group cohesion

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 9, Page 2755-2769, September 2026.
Abstract Wildlife populations are undergoing unprecedented changes to their spatial distributions as a result of human activities. Innovative approaches are needed to document these changes, especially in cases where sampling is sparse. Here, we contribute to the tools available in spatial ecology by developing novel metrics based on the coefficient of

A Case of Polydactyly in a Roe Deer (Capreolus capreolus) From Germany

open access: yesAnatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, Volume 55, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Polydactyly is a rare anomaly that has been described in many vertebrate species including several deer species. The case described in this communication is believed to be only the second documented example of additional metatarsae in roe deer (Capreolus capreolus).

Fish Mass Mortality Events Trigger Energy Transfer via Invertebrate‐Mediated Pathways at the Aquatic–Terrestrial Interface

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Animal mass mortality events are increasing under global change, generating large and unpredictable pulses of carrion that can influence ecosystem functioning. Although scavenger dynamics at individual carcasses are relatively well understood, little is known about how terrestrial vertebrate and invertebrate assemblages exploit large carrion ...

Tendons and ligaments of the Rangifer tarandus metapodial and hoof

open access: yes, 2021
Rangifer tarandus, the northern species including both reindeer and caribou, is a pillar of northern ecosystems and the lives of northern peoples. As the only domestic cervid, reindeer are important not only to the herders and hunters who presently ...

Habitat Selection and Intrapopulation Spatial Segregation in an Arctic Top Predator at the Southern Limit of Its Range

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
Located at the southern extent of the species' range, polar bears in James Bay exhibited intrapopulation variation in space use, resulting in two spatial clusters during the on‐ice season. Some bears remained within southern James Bay, whereas others ranged more broadly north of the bay.

Incorporating burn probability into spatial prioritization of woodland caribou habitat restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
Abstract Introduction Habitat disturbance is a major driver of population declines of woodland caribou in Canada. Habitat restoration is a critical component of a successful, long‐term approach to caribou recovery; however, with limited resources, it is important to target areas where restoration efforts will provide maximum benefits to caribou.

Short‐term soil responses and site conditions to inverted mounding on peatland linear features in Alberta, Canada

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 7, September 2026.
Abstract Introduction Seismic lines represent one of the most extensive and persistent anthropogenic disturbances in boreal peatlands, limiting forest regeneration and altering key ecosystem functions. Inverted mounding is increasingly applied to elevate planting microsites above shallow water tables, yet evidence on short‐ to medium‐term biophysical ...
