Abstract Mesocarnivores navigate a complex risk–reward continuum in ecosystems shared with their apex counterparts, balancing scavenging opportunities with risks of mortality. However, the risks to mesocarnivores in multi‐carnivore systems are not uniform; they can vary with specific apex–meso pairings.

Microbial Contributions to Primate Reproduction
ABSTRACT Reproduction is a complex process, and microbes play a far greater role than previously imagined. This review explores the ways that microbiomes influence the rich tapestry of reproductive processes and outcomes within the primate lineage, including pre‐copulatory and post‐copulatory mechanisms.

The recovery of large carnivores offers unique opportunities to study their cascading impacts on plant population dynamics. Medium‐sized carnivores, both prey and seed dispersers, are suppressed by apex predators, indirectly increasing seed‐eating rodent's populations and potentially altering plant establishment.

A Conceptual Framework and Methods for Studying the Connectivity of Fishes
ABSTRACT Connectivity is a multifaceted concept that has important implications for the management and conservation of marine and freshwater fishes. We developed a conceptual framework that encompasses multiple, interrelated categories of connectedness, including landscape (e.g., structural, functional) connectivity and ecological (e.g., trophic ...

Scat DNA Applications for Low‐Density Carnivore Survey: Techniques, Efficiency and Future Directions
We reviewed 338 studies encompassing mostly Felidae, Canidae and Mustelidae species throughout the world, confirming scat DNA as a reliable genetic source for many applications. The findings here offer guidance for future studies on low‐density carnivores, helping to design cost‐effective research and improving data quality for conservation efforts ...

Investigating the Potential Consequences of Woodland Creation for British Mammal Populations
We simulated the conversion of suitable areas in the UK to woodland, according to the current and target woodland creation rates, and assessed how this would affect habitat availability and potential population sizes of British mammals. We predicted that most assessed mammals would benefit or be unaffected by planned woodland creation, but some ...

The Devil in the Detail: A Review of a Long‐Running Australian Predator Management Program
We assessed the evidence base underpinning the prevailing narrative of a large and sustained reduction in fox abundance at Australia’s Booderee National Park. We identified a previously overlooked methodological change that has inflated the perceived ongoing suppression of fox abundance. Our work demonstrates how data biases can jeopardise the adaptive
