Modularity of the dorsal and lateral view of the skull in the European ground squirrel

open access: yesActa Biologica Slovenica, 2020
Modular organization is a general characteristic of biological systems from cellular to organismal level. The mammalian skull is a complex structure that can in general be divided into two functional components, the neurocranium and the viscerocranium ...

Energized fencing reduces risk of American black bear (Ursus americanus) damage to bird feeders in Minnesota

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.
Energized fences were effective at reducing black bear damage to bird feeders. The fences were 100% effective in a good natural bear food year and 77% effective in a poor natural bear food year. When bears breached the fences, the cause was typically poor electrical grounding.

Climbing the urban canopy: Camera trap insights into mammal activity and habitat use

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Urbanization profoundly impacts wildlife behavior and habitat use. While the effects of urbanization on diel activity patterns and mammal interactions have been well studied at the ground level, little is known about spatiotemporal patterns above the ground.

Spermophilus xanthoprymnus (Rodentia: Sciuridae)

open access: yesMammalian Species, 2010
Abstract Spermophilus xanthoprymnus (Bennett, 1835), the Asia Minor ground squirrel, is a group-living, diurnal, obligately hibernating marmotine squirrel. It inhabits the steppes and alpine meadows throughout central lowland and eastern highland Anatolia and adjacent Armenia and northwestern Iran.

Predation on Northern Silky Anteater (Cyclopes dorsalis) by Tiger Rat Snake (Spilotes pullatus) in a Rainforest Fragment in Costa Rica

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
We report the first predation event of a northern silky anteater by a tiger rat snake. This predation underscores how little is known about the nocturnal anteater and its predators. As the snake is commensal with humans, anthropogenic habitat alterations might have exposed the anteater to a novel predation pressure.

Understanding Why Grey Squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) Bark Strip in British Woodlands: A Systematic Map

open access: yesMammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
Studies investigating the bark‐stripping behaviour of squirrel species that cause economic damage focus on developing methods to manage the behaviour. On the other hand, studies investigating the behaviour of species that do not cause economic damage focus on understanding the behavioural ecology of the species to meet conservation objectives.
