Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.Humans are thought to have a disproportionately negative impact on wildlife and are viewed by some as the ultimate ‘super predator'.

Evidence for social role in a dolphin social network [PDF]
, 2006 Social animals have to take into consideration the behaviour of conspecifics when making decisions to go by their daily lives. These decisions affect their fitness and there is therefore an evolutionary pressure to try making the right choices.

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 3, Page 553-569, March 2026.This original research piece demonstrates, through empirical and theoretical modelling approaches, that the epibionts of striped dolphins indicate dolphin abundance shifts caused by epidemics of dolphin morbillivirus (DMV). In addition, we provide the first SIR model to investigate the epidemiology of DMV in western Mediterranean striped dolphins ...

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.Marine mammals are vulnerable to a variety of anthropogenic threats, yet a global systematic map of the literature for 19 species found both spatial and temporal disparity in research effort between threats and between species. There are knowledge gaps for species and threats, with effort unequal across many species' ranges.

Drivers of Viral Diversity and Sharing in Marine Mammals
Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.ABSTRACT Knowledge of viral infection in marine mammals, a group severely threatened by human activity, is largely limited to the pathology and epidemiology of few endemic viruses. The recent emergence in marine mammals of high‐consequence viruses, such as H5N1 avian influenza and rabies, underscores the importance of understanding the ecology of viral
