The English language is a gargantuan, gluttonous beast. It has become extraordinary among its peers in its powers of assimilation – such that we rarely consider the diverse origins of the words we use. In this two‐part paper, we will explore these origins, including the Pontic‐Caspian steppe, the British Empire, latinophone scientists and a TV show. We

Renewable energy is vital for reducing carbon emissions and yet its infrastructure poses challenges to biodiversity. While the impacts of wind power on bats and raptors are well‐studied, the effects on elusive species remain largely unknown. The Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola, a nocturnal forest bird, performs characteristic courtship flights at ...

Seasonal variation in photoperiods, energetic demands, and reproductive constraints are expected to strongly influence bat activity at high latitudes, yet empirical evidence from boreal systems is limited. We used passive acoustic monitoring to examine spatial, temporal, and feeding activity patterns of bats along a boreal river basin in Sweden (64°N ...

Food acquisition is arguably the most important, and among the riskiest behaviours for most mammals. Carcasses are an ephemeral resource for many scavengers, particularly black‐backed jackals Lupulella mesomelas that prey on small mammals. Landscape of fear theory suggests that prey species should reduce their activity in areas of high predator ...
