Serosurveillance of Leishmania infantum in Zoo‐Kept Animals in Spain

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 65-73, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Leishmaniosis is a sand fly‐borne zoonosis mainly caused by Leishmania infantum in Europe. Exposure to this protozoan has been widely reported in many domestic and wild species. However, epidemiological surveys evaluating the circulation of L. infantum in zoo‐kept animals remain limited. This large‐scale study aims to evaluate the

An Energetic Tradeoff Best Explains Parturition Timing in Grizzly Bears

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Capitalizing on latitudinal denning‐chronology variation among four grizzly bear populations in interior North America, and using grizzly bear parturition dates (27 Dec–28 Feb) previously predicted from anomalous daily motion counts, we found evidence supporting the hypothesis that birth is optimally timed relative to den exit to balance an energetic ...

Evolutionary history of Carnivora (Mammalia, Laurasiatheria) inferred from mitochondrial genomes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The order Carnivora, which currently includes 296 species classified into 16 families, is distributed across all continents. The phylogeny and the timing of diversification of members of the order are still a matter of debate.

Predators and scavengers: Polar bears as marine carrion providers

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Scavenging is a foraging strategy widely used across the animal kingdom and apex predators provide a large amount of energy in a food web by provisioning carrion. In the harsh environmental conditions of the Arctic, apex predators such as polar bears Ursus maritimus can provide scavenging opportunities for many species. Carrion can act as a buffer when

Caught on Camera: Insights Into Mizoram's Mammalian Diversity Through a Camera‐Trap‐Based Distance Sampling Approach

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Mizoram's study revealed low ungulate densities and abundance, suggesting illegal hunting as a cause and entailing conservation urgency. ABSTRACT Assessing species distribution and associated threats is crucial for effective conservation. Many species including mammals face extinction due to habitat loss, hunting, and illegal trade, with their ...

Inferring Endozoochory From Ingestion to Germination Through Biological Filters: Brown Bear Feces as a Case Study

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Our study investigated the combined effect of methods and endozoochorous filters (ingestion, mastication, gut passage and fecal matrix) on the inference of endozoochory. Our results highlighted differences according to the method used on the inference of endozoochory in terms of number of taxa and plant life forms, while inducing variable reliability ...

Avian influenza overview September–November 2025

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Between 6 September and 28 November 2025, 2896 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (442) and wild (2454) birds in 29 countries in Europe. The magnitude and geographical extent of these detections were unprecedented for this time of the year, particularly in wild birds.

Finding the ghosts: Snow leopard density and distribution in the multi‐use region of Jammu and Kashmir, India

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
We assess the population of snow leopards in the multi‐use region of Paddar in Jammu and Kashmir, India. Alongside we also investigate local land uses and estimate snow leopard distribution across Jammu and Kashmir. This study adds to the evidence that big cats, especially snow leopards, need landscape‐level conservation strategies, rather than solely ...
