Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 9, September 2022., 2022 This study reports population‐level differences in SSD in the species Onthophagus babirussa. Populations with lower mammal diversity showed higher degrees of male‐biased SSD, suggesting the importance of dung resource availability and diversity in driving sexual selection.

Palaeontology, Volume 65, Issue 1, January/February 2022., 2022 Abstract The Middle Jurassic witnessed the early diversification of mammal groups, including the stem‐mammalian clade, Docodonta. Recent discoveries in China indicate docodontans exhibited ecomorphological diversity akin to small‐bodied mammals living >100 million years later, in the Cenozoic.

Risk of human‐to‐wildlife transmission of SARS‐CoV‐2
Mammal Review, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 272-292, April 2021., 2021 SARS‐CoV‐2, the highly transmissible novel coronavirus in humans, has a strikingly broad potential host range. We review the risk and potential impact of human‐to‐wildlife transmission of SARS‐CoV‐2. As demonstrated by several observations of humans transmitting SARS‐CoV‐2 to felids, dogs and mink, and by numerous animal and in vitro infection ...
