Can we study whisker movements to gain insights into the natural sensory behaviours of mammals?
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend The recommended future of whisker science research is integrating findings from the laboratory with studies from other captive institutions (such as zoos, rehabilitation centres and specialist research institutes) and field observations.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.In this study, we evaluated the relationship between raccoon dog activity time and food resources and the degree of urbanization in the western area of Tokyo, the most populated region of Japan. Results showed that raccoon dogs tend to increase their daytime activity and use artificial food resources according to the degree of urbanization, but this is

Effectiveness of temporal matching in ecological niche models: Insights for a low‐dispersing species
Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2025.Abstract Ecological niche models, crucial for estimating the potential distribution of species under global change, can face reduced accuracy when the timing of occurrence data does not align with the environmental data. One solution is to ensure a close temporal match between the environment and the observation date.

Phylogeographic Structure of the Fossorial Long-Clawed Mouse Chelemys macronyx (Cricetidae: Sigmodontinae) [PDF]
, 2011 We present a phylogeographic study of the fossorial sigmodontine mouse Chelemys macronyx. Analyses were based on mitochondrial DNA sequences of specimens collected over most of distributional range of the species. Results showed that C.
