Toxoplasmosis is an important zoonosis caused by an obligate intracellular parasitic
protozoan, Toxoplasma gondii. The disease is distributed worldwide and can affect all warm …

Aim To synthesize the species distribution modelling (SDM) literature to inform which
variables have been used in MaxEnt models for different taxa and to quantify how frequently …

Non-invasive genetic techniques utilising DNA extracted from faeces hold great promise for
felid conservation research. These methods can be used to establish species distributions …

Diet analysis is a prerequisite to fully understand the biology of a species and the
functioning of ecosystems. For carnivores, traditional diet analyses mostly rely upon the …

Anthropogenic pressures in human‐dominated landscapes often contribute to wildlife
mortality. Carnivores are especially vulnerable to human‐induced mortality due to the …

Aim Maintaining connectivity is critical for long‐term persistence of wild carnivores in
landscapes fragmented due to anthropogenic activity. We examined spatial genetic structure …

Due to their secretive habits, predicting the pattern of spatial distribution of small carnivores
has been typically challenging, yet for conservation management it is essential to …

The dynamic geological and climatological history of Southeast Asia has spawned a
complex array of ecosystems and 12 of the 37 known cat species, making it the most felid …

Habitat degradation and loss of genetic diversity are common threats faced by almost all of
today's wild cats. Big cats, such as tigers and lions, are of great concern and have received …

The geographic distribution and habitat association of most mammalian polymorphic
phenotypes are still poorly known, hampering assessments of their adaptive significance …
