Reliable population size estimates are imperative for effective conservation and management, but are notoriously difficult to obtain for rare, cryptic species such as large carnivores. Genetic capture-mark-recapture (CMR) models can provide...
Age cohort definition and evidence of sexual dimorphism in the Southern Hairy-nosed Wombat (Lasiorhinus latifrons), a large Australian marsupial [0.03%]

Availability of food resources is an important driver of survival. Populations must either relocate or adapt to persist in environments where food availability is changing. An optimal diet balances energy gain, water regulation, and nutriti...
Influence of genetic similarity and social setting on extra-pair parentage in prairie voles [0.03%]
遗传相似度和社会环境对原生动物 Prairie Voles 偏好额外配对的影响

Social monogamy is rare in mammals, but in those species in which it occurs, individuals frequently engage in extra-pair copulation (EPC). Numerous hypotheses have been proposed to explain EPC, but relatively few field studies have examined...
Variation in species-specific responses to habitat fragmentation and land cover structure in urban small mammal communities [0.03%]
城市小型哺乳动物群落对生境破碎化和土地覆盖结构的物种特异性响应的变化

The process of describing a species has evolved considerably since the modern age of taxonomy was initiated with the publication of the 10th edition of Linnaeus' Systema Naturæ in 1758. Nevertheless, the basic unit of the taxonomic framewo...
Age estimation and growth patterns in young harbor seals (Phoca vitulina vitulina) during rehabilitation [0.03%]
幼海豹(Phoca vitulina vitulina)在康复期间的年龄估计和生长模式
Beatriz Rapado-Tamarit,Margarita Méndez-Aróstegui,Koen de Reus et al.
Beatriz Rapado-Tamarit et al.
To study patterns in behavior, fitness, and population dynamics, estimating the age of the individuals is often a necessity. Specifically, age estimation of young animals is very important for animal rehabilitation centers because it may de...
Antipredator responses of bats during short boreal nights with variable climatic conditions [0.03%]
在短极夜和多变气候条件下蝙蝠的避敌反应
Miina S Suutari,Aleksi Lehikoinen,Harry J Lehto et al.
Miina S Suutari et al.
The threat of predation can influence the behavior of animals. To minimize the impact of predation, animals rely on antipredatory responses and effectively balance these responses with other activities to maximize survival. Boreal bats are ...
Integrative species delimitation reveals an Idaho-endemic ground squirrel, Urocitellus idahoensis (Merriam 1913) [0.03%]
