Lack of capture‐induced mortality of neonates associated with variation in handling protocols

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We found that handling metrics (e.g., handling time, number of collectors, and age at capture) had limited or no influence on the survival of neonatal mule deer, desert bighorn sheep, and Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep within the first few days of life. Furthermore, we found that handled mule deer and Rocky Mountain bighorn neonates were recruited at a ...

The Welfare and Educational Impacts of Encounter Experiences and Displays on Zoo‐Housed Red Panda (Ailurus fulgens)

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
We investigated the extent and composition of red panda (Ailurus Fulgens spp.) encounters amongst 150 global zoos and their impact on animal longevity and reproduction. Comparative data analysis suggests that encounter animals produced more offspring and had higher longevity (survival) than non‐encounter animals with differences noted between ...

Seasonal body mass dynamics mediate life‐history trade‐offs in a hibernating mammal

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We tested a suite of ecological hypotheses to explain variation in seasonal body mass dynamics of a fat‐storing mammalian hibernator. We further demonstrated that pre‐hibernation mass gain in ground squirrels mediates an annual allocation trade‐off between current and future reproduction as the squirrels forage and rear young under predation risk ...

The ecology of gestational growth in a wild cooperative mammal

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using data from hundreds of wild pregnant meerkats, Thorley et al show that gestational growth varies widely, is shaped by nutrition but not social conditions, and improves pup survival without shortening telomeres. The fitness consequences and limited flexibility of prenatal growth likely enhance selection on early postnatal growth plasticity ...
