Adaptive harvesting of two trophic levels stabilises predator–prey dynamics. Simulations with Eurasian lynx and European roe deer

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Europe has seen the recovery of many species of wild herbivores, which are now widespread across much of the continent. In addition, large carnivores are also recolonising many European countries. Most ungulates are managed through hunting, but natural predation can also have a significant influence in many areas.

Fine‐scale spatio‐temporal niche partitioning enables coexistence of wild ungulates and livestock in a resource‐limited Himalayan landscape, India

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how wild ungulates share space with domestic livestock is central to conservation planning in Himalayan multi‐use landscapes. This study focuses on multi‐axis niche relationships among six wild ungulates: hangul Cervus hanglu hanglu, Kashmir musk deer Moschus cupreus, Himalayan goral Naemorhedus goral, kashmir markhor Capra falconeri ...

A Case Report on Rehabilitation of the Asiatic Black Bear (Ursus thibetanus ussuricus) in the Wild 亚洲黑熊 (Ursus thibetanus ussuricus) 野外放归野化案例报告

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Asiatic black bears in Russia face conservation threats such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, which exacerbate food shortages caused by crop failures. This study explores an innovative approach to rehabilitating bears that abandon hibernation in mid‐winter due to extreme exhaustion by providing supplemental food near their den sites.

Human‐Caused Leopard Deaths in Sri Lanka Are Concentrated in Central Highlands' Estate Mosaics: Evidence From 17 Years of Mortality Records 人为因素导致斯里兰卡豹死亡事件集中于中部高地种植园镶嵌景观:来自 17 年死亡记录的证据

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Human‐caused leopard deaths in Sri Lanka averaged 9.65 ± 4.5 records year−1 over 17 years (2008–2024; n = 164), with records highly clustered in the central highland mosaic ecosystem. Mortality was dominated by adult males and driven primarily by snaring in plantation landscapes, and indicating an increase approximately 0.7–0.8 deaths per year.

First identification of Sapoviruses in wild boar

open access: yesVirus Research, 2019
Sapoviruses (SaVs) are enteric viruses that have been detected in human and animals previously; however, SaVs have not been identified in wild boar yet. Using a metagenomics approach, we identified SaVs in fecal samples of free-living wild boars in Japan for the first time. Six of the 48 specimens identified belonged to one genogroup (G)III, one GV and
