Local perceptions of Asiatic black bear conservation in a subsistence agriculture community of Mustang, Nepal

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Household surveys in Kunjo, Mustang district examined local perceptions of Asiatic black bear conservation, crop damage, and human‐bear interactions. Crop damage was greater near forest edges, while more than half of households have negative attitude towards bear conservation. The findings highlight the importance of incorporating local perceptions and

Roadless status under the Roadless Area Conservation Rule is not associated with increased wildfire in the US National Forest System

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
The US Department of Agriculture has proposed rescinding the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule that protects inventoried roadless areas across the National Forest System. The need to address wildfire is cited as a primary motivation for overturning the Roadless Rule.

Environmental DNA succeeds in detecting a low‐density population of endangered harlequin frogs

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
This work evaluates the use of environmental DNA (eDNA) to detect the Critically Endangered Jambato Harlequin Frog (Atelopus ignescens)—an iconic species once thought extinct and now known only from a single locality in the Ecuadorian Andes. Our study demonstrates the effectiveness of eDNA in detecting the Jambato in a low‐density amphibian population,

Fine‐Scale Factors Affecting the Abundance and Thermal Sensitivity of Nonnative Brook Trout in Coldwater Rocky Mountain Streams

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) is a globally distributed nonnative species that threatens native salmonids in coldwater streams. Understanding the factors regulating Brook Trout densities in coldwater refugia is critical to effective management, so we investigated (a) fine‐scale drivers of Brook Trout abundance and (b) factors ...

Threatened cockatoo adapts foraging strategy to survive habitat loss from fire

Ibis, EarlyView.
Fire regimes are changing across the globe as a result of human‐induced climate change. For granivorous bird species, changes in fire regimes can affect seed availability and the persistence of populations. We investigated the foraging behaviour of Glossy Black Cockatoos Calyptorhynchus lathami halmaturinus, a resource specialist, following large‐scale
