Abstract In wildlife populations, parasites often go unnoticed, as infected animals appear asymptomatic. However, these infections can subtly alter behaviour. Field evidence of how these subclinical infections induce changes in movement behaviour is

Abstract Wildlife tagging provides critical insights into animal movement ecology, physiology, and behavior amid global ecosystem changes. However, the stress induced by capture, handling, and tagging can impact post-release locomotion and activity a

Human and predator presence shape diel activity of urban red squirrels

Publikováno v: Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, Vol 12 (2024)

In urban areas, wildlife has to adapt to human presence and novel predators such as pet species, including the altered conditions of the environment. In such novel settings, the timing of activity is crucial to minimize the risk of mortality. To do s

The good, the bad, and the unseen: wild mammal encounters influence wildlife preferences of residents across socio-demographic gradients

Publikováno v: Ecology and Society, Vol 29, Iss 3, p 6 (2024)

As natural habitats decline and wildlife adapts to increasing anthropogenic disturbance, it is crucial to understand human-wildlife relationships in residential areas. However, relevant studies are limited and mostly focused on single cities. To addr

Resource asynchrony and landscape homogenization as drivers of virulence evolution: The case of a directly transmitted disease in a social host

Autor: Tobias Kürschner, Cédric Scherer, Viktoriia Radchuk, Niels Blaum, Stephanie Kramer‐Schadt

Publikováno v: Ecology and Evolution, Vol 14, Iss 2, Pp n/a-n/a (2024)

Abstract Throughout the last decades, the emergence of zoonotic diseases and the frequency of disease outbreaks have increased substantially, fuelled by habitat encroachment and vectors overlapping with more hosts due to global change. The virulence
