Predation influences the ecology and behaviour of prey species and it is well known that the
risk of predation affects prey's decision making. We investigated whether predation risk …

Wild animals are brought to captivity for different reasons, for example to be kept in zoos and
rehabilitation centres, but also for basic research. Such animals usually undergo a process …

Roads can block animal movement and reduce persistence of species living in road
surroundings. Movement restrictions on local populations may even increase extinction risk …

Wild populations are continuously subjected to changes in environmental factors that pose
different challenges. Body condition and hormones have been commonly used as health …

Differences between air and ground temperatures are expected to narrow with the advance
