Among species, coexistence is driven partly by the partitioning of available resources. The
mechanisms of coexistence and competition among species have been a central topic …

As human threats continue to impact natural habitats, there is an increasing need to
regularly monitor the trends in large vertebrate populations. Conservation efforts must be …

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

Top carnivores play an important role in maintaining energy flow and functioning of the
ecosystem, and a clear understanding of their diets and foraging strategies is essential for …

Tree microhabitats (eg, canopy deadwood, cavities, and loose bark) may play an important
role in forest biodiversity conservation. Indeed, many species depend on tree microhabitats …

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 …

Biodiversity sustained by natural ecosystems, particularly forests, provides ecosystem
services essential to human well-being. However, many forests have been severely …

Carnivore community dynamics are governed by a complex set of often interacting biotic,
abiotic and anthropogenic factors that are increasingly volatile as a result of global change …

Abstract Context The Mediterranean basin is characterized by a heterogeneous landscape
historically shaped by human activities. Land abandonment and extensive monocultures …

We investigated the home range size, habitat selection, as well as the spatial and activity
overlap, of four mid-sized carnivore species in the Central Pantanal, Mato Grosso do Sul …
