Carrion acts as a hotspot of animal activity within many ecosystems globally, attracting
scavengers that rely on this food source. However, many scavengers are invasive species …

Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) influence predator populations and threaten the stability of
ecosystems. Understanding the prevalence and impact of rodenticides in predators is crucial …

Global environmental change has redistributed earth's biomass and the inputs and
dynamics of basal detrital resources in ecosystems, contributing to the decline of …

Lead (Pb) toxicity, through ingestion of lead ammunition in carcasses, is a threat to
scavenging birds worldwide, but has received little attention in Australia. We analyzed lead …

Human‐induced environmental change has caused widespread loss of species that support
important functions for ecosystems and society. For example, vertebrate scavengers …

Apex scavengers can perform an important ecosystem service by rapidly removing carrion,
in turn regulating nutrient cycling linked to carcass decomposition. Yet, our understanding of …

Ungulates serve as the primary carrion source for facultative scavengers in European
ecosystems. In the absence of large carnivores, such as wolves (Canis lupus), human …

Brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula) are becoming increasingly recognized as key
members of local scavenger guilds in Australia. Yet, our understanding of the spatiotemporal …
