Space between houses influences movement and habitat selection of ungulates: Width as a novel metric of development

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
In rural areas, maintaining spaces between houses >500 m will likely facilitate ungulate movement. To fully conserve functional habitat, such as unimpeded habitat use along migration corridors, maintaining spaces approximately >2.5 km between houses will likely be necessary. Abstract Wildlife often lose access to habitat due to housing development. The

Songbird population trajectories diverge under simulations of conifer encroachment versus removal in a sagebrush ecosystem

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, April 2026.
Abstract Woody plant encroachment into grasslands and shrublands is a global phenomenon that negatively impacts ecosystem services and wildlife populations. North American sagebrush ecosystems have experienced widespread degradation from encroaching conifers, leading to losses of sagebrush‐obligate wildlife.

Microhabitat Selection by Greater Sage-Grouse Hens During Brood Rearing

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations have declined throughout the western United States over the past century. Loss of large stands of sagebrush is a major factor leading to the decline of sage-grouse populations.

Preservation Strategies for Camel Meat: Quality Improvement and Shelf‐Life Extension

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Camel meat, a crucial protein source in arid regions, faces challenges like high moisture content and susceptibility to spoilage, limiting its shelf life. Traditional methods such as salting, drying, and smoking have been used historically, while modern techniques like refrigeration, freezing, and vacuum packaging enhance quality and safety.

Winter foraging ecology of Greater Sage-Grouse in a post-fire landscape

, 2020
In the Great Basin, changes in climate and associated fire regimes may alter the density and distribution of shrubs, changing the structure and diet quality of plants in burned areas.

Sage‐grouse breeding and late brood‐rearing habitat guidelines in Utah

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2019
Delineation, protection, and restoration of habitats provide the basis for endangered and threatened species recovery plans. Species recovery plans typically contain guidelines that provide managers with a scientific basis to designate and manage ...

Influence of transmission line construction on winter sage-grouse habitat use in southern Utah

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
The construction and operation of electric power transmission lines (“power lines”) and their associated infrastructure has been identified as a conservation threat to the greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse).

Free rein: Are feral horses competing with native ungulates in British Columbia?

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 3, April 2026.
We investigated little‐studied feral horses in west‐central British Columbia, Canada, as a potential competitor for native moose and mule deer. We did not find strong evidence that feral horses exclude moose or deer from habitat or resources at a large landscape scale or smaller spatiotemporal patch scale.

Genetic mark‐recapture analysis of winter faecal pellets allows estimation of population size in Sage Grouse Centrocercus urophasianus

Ibis, 2020
The Sage Grouse Centrocercus urophasianus is a species of conservation concern throughout its range in western North America. Since the 1950s, the high count of males at leks has been used as an index for monitoring populations. However, the relationship

Report of the Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN) on nutritional risks for women during menopause, perimenopause and postmenopause

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Menopause is the time when a woman transitions from the reproductive stage of life to the non‐reproductive state. It is characterised by significant hormonal changes, which can affect a woman's physical, emotional, mental and social well‐being.
