Enhancing hotspot mapping of illegal wild meat trade in Kenya through market surveys and confiscated meat analyses

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Illegal trade of wild meat pose a severe threat to the survival of wildlife populations. The decline in the number of some species has been directly linked to these illegal activities. Poachers and traders of illegal wild meat products often mask them as livestock meat to sell to consumers who may or may not be complicit.

Ecology of reintroduced Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep in Dinosaur National Monument La Ecología de Borrego Cimarron de las Montañas Rocosas Reintroducido en el Monumento Nacional de Dinosaurio

Wildlife Monographs, EarlyView.
We synthesized GPS telemetry, genetic, and pathogen data to evaluate metapopulation processes in a reintroduced Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis canadensis) population in Dinosaur National Monument. We estimated subpopulation‐specific abundances and found 4 small subpopulations with high genetic diversity, partial connectivity, and ...

Molecular data on wild sheep genetic resources and domestic sheep evolution

, 2001
Wild sheep of the genus Ovis are an important genetic resource for a major agricultural species. In a pilot study, we have used mitochondrial DNA control region and COI gene data in order to characterize their biodiversity and to clarify the nomenclature

Ancient genomics and the origin, dispersal, and development of domestic sheep [PDF]

The origins and prehistory of domestic sheep ( Ovis aries ) are incompletely understood; to address this, we generated data from 118 ancient genomes spanning 12,000 years sampled from across Eurasia. Genomes from Central Türkiye ~8000 BCE are genetically

All roads lead to infection: A mechanistic model to assess transmission routes of brucellosis in a wild ungulate population

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Wildlife and domestic populations frequently share diseases with a potential for cross‐species transmission, posing significant threats to animal and human health, economy and biodiversity conservation.

Plasma insulin‐like growth‐factor 1 (IGF‐1) concentrations predict early life‐history traits in a wild mammal

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The hormone insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1) is a key player in the insulin/IGF signalling (IIS) pathway. Extensive biogerontological research demonstrates that this evolutionarily conserved nutrient‐sensing pathway plays a causal role in the regulation of growth ...

Belowground effects of ground‐dwelling large herbivores in forest ecosystems

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reviews how ground‐dwelling large herbivores affect forest soil and litter globally. Effects are context‐dependent, vary among species and forest types, and remain poorly studied in tropical forests, highlighting critical gaps in understanding nutrient cycling and ecosystem functioning.

Social information about others' affective states in a human‐altered world

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Faced with anthropogenic change, animals now encounter challenges different from their evolutionary past. To cope with such challenges, animals may use social information about others' affective states to guide their decisions. Considering affective states of wild animals could have important implications for animal welfare and wildlife conservation ...
