Large mammal recovery in the wake of human population decline

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Human depopulation, particularly in rural areas, has contributed to the recovery of some large mammal populations. While recovery is generally good news for conservation, it can also lead to human‐wildlife conflict. We present several avenues to maximize coexistence in the face of further rural depopulation in other places. Read the free Plain Language

Behavioral and demographic effects of open‐pit mining on Central Mountain Caribou in British Columbia

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
The demographic manifestation of mining effects on caribou, a species listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, has been disputed. We characterized a cascade of events for caribou associated with open‐pit coal mining beginning with maladaptive behavior responses leading to negative demographic outcomes for the affected caribou ...

Structural Genomic Variation and Its Potential Role in Deer Speciation

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Speciation is a key driver of biodiversity and understanding its genomic underpinnings can be important for predicting and managing biodiversity. Structural variants (SVs) are large‐scale (> 50 bp) changes in the genome and have been implicated in adaptive divergence and reproductive isolation. We investigated the role of SVs in the speciation
