Prey Partitioning in a Diverse Carnivore Community: Implications for Reintroduced Fishers in Washington

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

Neighbors to nature: A case study of recreation‐wildlife co‐existence in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We monitored medium to large mammal and human activity to assess impacts of recreation and inform management, deploying 27 trail cameras along multi‐use non‐motorized recreational trails for 2.5 years in a heavily used area within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, USA.

Exploring the complexity of community perceptions toward Przewalski's gazelle conservation

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
To understand local perceptions toward Przewalski's gazelle conservation, we combined two clustering analysis methods to identify four primary types of perspectives and key influencing factors regarding the conservation of Przewalski's gazelle within the local community.
