Towns and trails drive carnivore movement behaviour, resource selection, and connectivity
Background Global increases in human activity threaten connectivity of animal habitat and
populations. Protection and restoration of wildlife habitat and movement corridors require …

Advances in biologging can identify nuanced energetic costs and gains in predators
Foraging is a key driver of animal movement patterns, with specific challenges for predators
which must search for mobile prey. These patterns are increasingly impacted by global …

Geographic barriers but not life history traits shape the phylogeography of North American mammals
Aim Synthesize literature on genetic structure within species to understand how geographic
features and species traits influence past responses to climate change. Location North …

Habitat fragmentation reduces survival and drives source–sink dynamics for a large carnivore
Rigorous understanding of how environmental conditions impact population dynamics is
essential for species conservation, especially in mixed‐use landscapes where source–sink …

Anthropogenic activities and age class mediate carnivore habitat selection in a human-dominated landscape
Human activities increasingly challenge wild animal populations by disrupting ecological
connectivity and population persistence. Yet, human-modified habitats can provide …

Puma responses to unreliable human cues suggest an ecological trap in a fragmented landscape
Animals' fear of people is widespread across taxa and can mitigate the risk of human‐
induced mortality, facilitating coexistence in human‐dominated landscapes. However …
