Abstract Weasels (genus Mustela and Neogale) are of management concern as declining
native species in some regions and invasive species in others. Regardless of the need to …

Wildlife research has been indispensable for increasing our insight into ecosystem
functioning as well as for designing effective conservation measures under the currently …

Competition is a widespread interaction among carnivores, ultimately manifested through
one or more dimensions of the species' ecological niche. One of the most explicit …

Coexistence of ecologically similar species relies on differences in one or more dimensions
of their ecological niches, such as space, time and resources in diel and/or seasonal scales …

Context Multispecies and multiscale habitat suitability models (HSM) are important to identify
the environmental variables and scales influencing habitat selection and facilitate the …

In light of global biodiversity loss, there is an increasing need for large‐scale wildlife
monitoring. This is difficult for mammals, since they can be elusive and nocturnal. In the …

Monitoring populations of elusive large carnivores like wolves (Canis lupus), which are often
distributed at low density in widespread forested areas, is difficult or exceedingly expensive …

Most studies focused on species coexistence have been directed at the differential use of
habitat and food resources; nonetheless, the differential use of the diel cycle may enhance …

Research on terrestrial carnivore ecology frequently relies on scat identification and
analysis. However, species assignment is commonly based on scat morphology. Potential …

Background There is need of information on ecological interactions that keystone species
such as apex predators establish in ecosystems recently recolonised. Interactions among …
