Quantification of human‐caused mortality in an imperiled turtle

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
For many threatened and endangered species, the importance of human‐caused mortality relative to other sources has not been quantified, making it difficult to assess the effectiveness of mortality‐reduction strategies. We used radio telemetry data, pooled across studies at protected sites in the US states of Illinois and Wisconsin, to estimate natural ...

Regional conservation planning tool: A spreadsheet model to support spatial prioritization and resource allocation decisions

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract Prioritization is a central component of natural resource management because conservation needs routinely exceed available resources. Waterfowl and wetland conservation programs in North America are at the forefront of landscape‐scale prioritization and transboundary management decisions due to the migratory nature of ducks, geese, and swans ...

In my opinion: Increasing black engagement with wildlife: Historical context, educational gaps, and opportunities for inclusive conservation

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract Limited engagement between Black Americans and wildlife is often treated as cultural disinterest rather than the outcome of historical exclusion, racialized trauma, or persistent structural barriers. This perspective obscures the long‐standing relationships Black communities have had with land, agriculture, and conservation, and constrains ...

Resolving the paradox of local warning signal diversity: A framework for hypothesis testing

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Defended prey often evolve conspicuous colorations that advertise their unprofitability to predators. These visual advertisements act as honest warning signals that predators can use to avoid these prey through associative learning.

Integrating infection intensity and aggregation into the dynamics of pathogens with within‐host replication

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We bridge micro‐ and macroparasite theory with a model tracking pathogen load heterogeneity. By incorporating load‐dependent mortality and within‐host pathogen growth, we show how pathogen load aggregation alters disease prevalence, host suppression effects, and virulence evolution, providing insights for managing complex infectious disease like ...
