The influence of domestic dogs on the spatial and temporal distribution of tayra
Wildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 2, March 2025.The domestic dog Canis familiaris is an exotic species known to have impacts on native fauna and it may induce spatial and temporal segregation in other species as a mechanism to reduce agonistic interactions. The tayra Eira barbara, a medium‐sized, widely distributed mustelid, is one of the species that can be affected.

A global assessment of large terrestrial carnivore kill rates
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 1, Page 327-350, February 2025.ABSTRACT Through killing and instilling fear in their prey, large terrestrial carnivores shape the structure and function of ecosystems globally. Most large carnivore species have experienced severe range and population declines due to human activities, and many are now threatened with extinction.

First description of the baubellum in the spectacled bear Tremarctos ornatus (Mammalia: Ursidae)
Journal of AnatomyAbstractThe baubellum (os clitoridis) is a bone found in the clitoris of many female eutherian mammals and is homologous to the baculum in males. In contrast to the baculum, the baubellum has received very little attention regarding its morphological or interspecific diversity, or on hypotheses for its function.

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 10, Issue 5, September/October 2024.Abstract Extant giant pandas are among the most herbivorous forms of the order Carnivora, feeding mainly on hard plant material. The first steps of their evolutionary lineage are of particular interest for our understanding of the factors that led to this specialized niche.

Palaeontology, Volume 67, Issue 4, July/August 2024.Abstract Mammals exhibit ecology‐related diversity in long bone morphology, revealing an ample spectrum of adaptations both within and between clades. Their occupation of unique ecological niches in postcranial morphology is thought to have occurred at different chronological phases in relation to abiotic factors such as climate and biotic interactions
