Differences in mammal community response to highway construction across different levels of human land use

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Worldwide, transportation agencies have been involved in road mitigation efforts to reduce road mortality and promote connectivity of endangered species. Baseline data on how mammals respond to highway construction, however, are rarely collected in road mitigation and monitoring studies, including in the USA.

Space and resource use by American crow Corvus brachyrhynchos in an area endemic for chronic wasting disease

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
American crow Corvus brachyrhynchos is a common species throughout North America. Crows play a role in the ecology of multiple diseases and a single laboratory experiment has shown the potential for crows to pass infectious prions, such as those associated with chronic wasting disease (CWD), in their feces after being force‐fed with infected material ...

Faunivores are active longer than herbivores across the daily cycle in a Neotropical savanna–forest mammal community

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Daily activity budgets reflect how animals balance internal physiological demands with external environmental pressures. We analyzed 14 037 camera‐trap records from 12 mammal species in the Venezuelan Llanos to evaluate the effects of foraging strategy (faunivore versus herbivore), season, and body mass on daily activity duration, to describe diel ...

Fecal Glucocorticoid and Androgen Metabolites in Eastern Grey Kangaroos (Macropus giganteus) Following Environmental Relocation

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
Fecal glucocorticoid (GCM) and androgen metabolite (AM) concentrations were monitored for 3 months following the relocation of three eastern gray kangaroos (Macropus giganteus) between zoological facilities. Both metabolites showed high concentrations during the early postrelocation period, followed by a rapid decline and stabilization, suggesting ...

Adjusting Our Thinking About Feeding Animals: Fiber as the Metric for Mimicking Natural Diets

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
A typical effect of the change of an animal group to a diet higher in fiber: juveniles keep growing, animals of ideal body weight maintain their weight, and obese individuals lose weight. ABSTRACT Free‐ranging animals often ingest markedly different diets than their counterparts under human care, whether companion animals, production animals, or zoo ...
