driver of extinction and endangerment. Better understanding of their ecology can improve …

Predation by house cats (Felis catus) is one of the largest human-related sources of mortality
for wild birds in the United States and elsewhere, and has been implicated in extinctions and …

Isotopic tracking of carnivore palaeoecology is a relatively new approach that yielded
important results for the study of the non-analogue mammoth steppe biome. After describing …

Even though they are fed daily by their owners, free‐ranging pet cats Felis catus may kill
wild birds and, given their high densities (typically> 200 cats/km2), it has been postulated …

Amongst domestic animals, the domestic cat, Felis catus, is widely considered to be one of
the most serious threats to wildlife conservation. This is particularly evident for island …

Domestic cats Felis catus are distinct from other domesticated animals because their
