Lions as Bone Accumulators? Exploring Multi‐Predator Contributions to the Olduvai Carnivore Site (OCS) (Tanzania) Through AI and Metric Analyses

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lions (Panthera leo) are apex predators with a well‐documented influence on ecological dynamics, yet their potential role as bone‐accumulating agents remains poorly understood and often debated. Previous taphonomic studies have largely attributed bone accumulations in African savannah ecosystems to other carnivores, such as spotted hyenas ...

Does Smoking Influence Outcomes in Human Papillomavirus—Associated Oropharyngeal Cancer Treated with Transoral Robotic Surgery?

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Smoking has been identified as a risk factor for recurrence in HPV‐associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) treated with definitive chemoradiation. Whether the same prognostic significance holds with surgical treatment such as transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is less well studied.

Not just ‘super‐predators': human behaviour shapes wildlife behavioural responses across avoidance, tolerance and attraction

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Humans are thought to have a disproportionately negative impact on wildlife and are viewed by some as the ultimate ‘super predator'. This view implies that wild animals perceive humans primarily as predators. However, a growing body of evidence shows that wildlife can have remarkable tolerance for, or even attraction to, humans.

Frugivory‐mediated trophic cascades: how apex predators can shape the recruitment of a fleshy‐fruited tree

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
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.

Multiple scales of fear: foraging behaviour of white‐naped jays in semiarid landscapes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Animals must constantly balance the need to find resources with the risk of predation. Not only avoiding direct encounters with predators but also assessing the overall risk of their environment using cues, social information or habitat traits at multiple spatial and temporal scales.
