Community perceptions and management of the fleshy‐fruited invasive alien plant Pyracantha angustifolia: Insights from South Africa's Montane grasslands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1869-1879, June 2026.
Abstract Invasive alien plants can provide economic or cultural benefits to local communities, influencing perceptions and potentially affecting management decisions. Understanding these perceptions is crucial to avoiding inefficiencies, misunderstandings and conflicts in the management of invasive alien species.

Monitoring African Megafauna in an Anthropogenic Landscape: A 15‐Year Case Study of the Vulnerable West African Giraffe

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 235-248, June 2026.
We used pattern recognition software to correct misidentifications in a 15‐year photographic database of the last, vulnerable West African giraffe population in Niger. After revealing substantial methodological errors that had inflated population estimates by nearly 19%, we corrected individual encounter histories and applied capture‐mark‐recapture ...

Comparative digital reconstruction of Pica pica and Struthio camelus and their cranial suture ontogenies.

open access: yes, 2023
To date, several studies describe post-hatching ontogenetic variation in birds; however, none of these studies document and compare ontogenetic variation of the entire skull in multiple avian species.

Physicochemical characteristics of smoked cooked linguiças made with ostrich meat trimmings

open access: yesArquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia
The aim of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics of three formulations of smoked cooked linguiças, only differing in the lean meat used: (Formula 1 ― 100% ostrich meat; Formula 2 ― 50% ostrich meat + 50% pork; and Formula 3 ― 50%

Capturing the unseen: A low‐cost method for stratified subterranean sampling of soil invertebrates in drylands

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
We developed a low‐cost, stratified subterranean trap for live capture of soil macrofauna in the sandy, dryland soils of the southern Kalahari. The subterranean traps sampled below‐ground taxa and life stages that were rarely represented in pitfall traps (including termites, hypogaeic ants and beetle larvae), showed strong seasonal peaks in richness ...

ENHYDROSS: A New Mechanistic Model Supports the Trans‐Oceanic Dispersal Capability of Terrestrial Vertebrates

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We introduce ENHYDROSS, a new mechanistic model that uses optimal swimming speed and minimum cost of transport to estimate maximum dispersal distances and durations for vertebrates, enabling assessment of long‐distance oceanic dispersal potential. Applied to a range of extant and extinct animals, the model's estimates generally align with observed data;

Incubation Temperature for Ostrich (Struthio camelus) Eggs

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2004
The impact of incubation temperature on egg weight loss, embryonic mortality, incubation period, hatchability, and chick weight in 394 ostrich (Struthio camelus) eggs was studied. Eggs were obtained from 3 farms in Texas. Three incubation temperatures (36.5, 37.0, or 37.5 degrees C) with relative humidity ranging from 20 to 30% were used.
