Hunter perceptions of a recreationally‐hunted invasive species during eradication from an island wildlife refuge

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
We quantified recreationists perceptions of wild pigs during an eradication program at Blackbeard Island, Georgia, U.S., by distributing a survey to participants of the 2024 archery hunt. Hunters overwhelmingly supported wild pig eradication (73.0%) and were concerned about wild pig impacts on native species (98.1%), yet only half believed eradication ...

Landscape Connectivity and Wildlife Access to Water Across an International Border: Barriers and Opportunities for Facilitating Transboundary Movement

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
The construction of barriers along international borders is increasing globally, including along the boundary between the United States and Mexico. We used a landscape connectivity model to investigate the effects of barriers on wildlife access to water within the Lower Rio Grande Valley (Texas, USA) across three scenarios: (1) without border barriers;

Nitrogen Effects on Diversity and Community Composition Are Contingent on Fire in a Grassland Undergoing Encroachment by Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus)

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Following 18 years of fire, nitrogen and herbivore manipulation in a grassland subject to woody encroachment, we found that the effects of nitrogen addition on community composition were contingent on fire. In burned plots, nitrogen addition led to increased invasive C3 grass cover, while in the absence of fire, these species' cover was elevated ...

Structural Genomic Variation and Its Potential Role in Deer Speciation

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Speciation is a key driver of biodiversity and understanding its genomic underpinnings can be important for predicting and managing biodiversity. Structural variants (SVs) are large‐scale (> 50 bp) changes in the genome and have been implicated in adaptive divergence and reproductive isolation. We investigated the role of SVs in the speciation
