Summary The accelerating loss of biodiversity worldwide demands effective tools for monitoring animal populations and informing conservation action. In habitats where direct observation is difficult (rain forests, oceans), or for cryptic species (shy

African forest elephants (Loxodonta cyclotis) occupy large ranges in dense tropical forests and often use far-reaching vocal signals to coordinate social behavior. Elephant populations in Central Africa are in crisis, having declined by more than 60%

African forest elephants (Loxodonta cyclotis) can be observed reliably in forest clearings but are difficult to observe directly in their otherwise forested habitat. To obtain data on population demography and activity cycles, conservation programmes

Red-winged blackbirds (Agelaius phoeniceus L.) annually destroy substantial amounts of sweet corn (Zea mays L.) during the summer. No-choice feeding trials were conducted to assess the efficacy of spraying sweet corn ears with obstructive polymer fib

Many plants have mechanisms of physical or chemical resistance that protect them from herbivores in their environment. The ornamental plant Pachysandra terminalis Sieb. and Zucc is highly unpalatable to voles, but the nature of this resistance is not

Voles are a major pest in orchards and coniferous plantations. Currently, vole control relies primarily on the use of rodenticides and herbicides. Our goal was to identify a plant species that could be used to develop a non-lethal and effective repel

Most evaluations of the effects of human activities on wild animals have focused on estimating changes in abundance and distribution of threatened species; however, ecosystem disturbances also affect aspects of animal behavior such as short-term move

African forest elephants (Loxodonta cyclotis) live in tropical rainforests in Central Africa and often use low-frequency vocalizations for long-distance communication and coordination of group activities. There is great interest in monitoring populat

African forest elephants live in the rain forests of western and central Africa. The dense habitat prevents them from communicating visually within the family group. Automatic detection of African Forest Elephants' calls intercepts signals in their c
