Ready for climate change? The importance of adaptive thermoregulatory flexibility for the Malagasy bat species Triaenops menamena [PDF]
arXivThe balance between energy intake and expenditure is essential and crucial for survival for all organisms. The energy management is closely linked to the ecology. Thus, changes in environmental conditions can be challenging, especially for the animals physiology.

An Agent-Based Model of Elephant Crop Raid Dynamics in the Periyar-Agasthyamalai Complex, India [PDF]
arXivHuman-wildlife conflict challenges conservation worldwide, which requires innovative management solutions. We developed a prototype Agent-Based Model (ABM) to simulate interactions between humans and solitary bull Asian elephants in the Periyar-Agasthyamalai complex of the Western Ghats in Kerala, India. The main challenges were the complex behavior of

Effects of age, density, and seasonality on molt pattern in the mammal genus (Peromyscus) [PDF]
, 2015 Molting, or replacement of pelage (hair) in mammals, occurs during ontogeny as individuals transition from juveniles to adults. Environmental factors can cause variation in molt in many species for thermoregulatory and camouflage purposes.
