Riding out the storm: Behavioural responses of a large herbivore to high‐Arctic winds

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using 11 years of GPS data from 61 muskoxen in Northeast Greenland, we show how increasing wind speed and Arctic storms reshape movement modes and habitat selection. Muskoxen respond by bedding in dense vegetation, prioritizing energy conservation over foraging, revealing a simple behavioural strategy with potential fitness consequences under ...

Beyond first clutches: Second broods reshape selection on breeding timing in forest and urban great tits

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Most studies of selection on breeding timing consider only first clutches. Using a 13‐year dataset of urban and forest great tits, we show that including second broods reshapes estimates of natural selection, revealing that early breeding is favoured through increased probability of multiple brooding and higher annual reproductive output.

Elephant space use and habitat selection change across drought timescales

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Drought threatens wildlife worldwide, but little is known about wildlife behaviour during drought. This study combines 19 years of elephant GPS data with drought conditions at three timescales. Key findings include that elephants (i) move less during drought at a 1‐month timescale and (ii) change habitat selection across drought timescales.

Conceptualizing moral migration: how disillusionment and the transnational right motivate migration to Russia Conceptualiser la migration morale : comment les désillusions et la droite transnationale motivent l’émigration vers la Russie

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Russia is consistently a top migration destination. While most migrate to Russia from other post‐Soviet countries, a small but highly visible group of the Russian‐speaking diaspora has returned from Europe and North America. Lauded in Russian media as ‘ideological migrants’, their narratives at first glance echo those of the state as they claim to flee

Unraveling Occurrence Patterns and Diversity of Avian Malaria Parasites in Iberian Obligate and Facultative Scavenger Birds

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Low overall haemosporidian occurrence (3.4%; 13/383). Unexpected high lineage diversity (10 new host–parasite interactions). Novel Leucocytozoon lineage (GYPBAR01) in all European vultures except the griffon vulture. Plasmodium relictum (lineage SGS1) in adult red kites.
