The Rhinoceros Relocation Mystery: Unraveling the Determinants of Habitat Use and Conservation Threats of Translocated Population in Nepal

open access: yesInternational Journal of Zoology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Due to the rapid decline of the Rhinoceros unicornis population during the 1960s, the Government of Nepal implemented several conservation measures, including translocation programs to various protected areas within the country.

Review of hyperdispersal in wildlife translocations

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 1, February 2024.
Abstract Species translocation is a common tool to reverse biodiversity loss, but it has a high failure rate. One factor that contributes to failure is postrelease hyperdispersal, which we define as the long‐distance movement of individuals resulting in their failure to contribute to population establishment.

Running, jumping, hunting, and scavenging: Functional analysis of vertebral mobility and backbone properties in carnivorans

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 244, Issue 2, Page 205-231, February 2024.
Intervertebral mobility and backbone properties were studied in 34 species of terrestrial carnivorans. Carnivorans that seize prey with their jaws (canids and hyaenids) are characterized by a significantly elongated neck and increased vertebral mobility in the sagittal and horizontal planes.
