Simple Summary Why might a species both be seriously threatened and pose an
overpopulation problem in introduced locations? The aim of this review was to understand …

The effects of animal homeostatic function on ecological interactions have not been well-
integrated into community ecology. Animals mediate environmental change and stressors …

Management of large herbivores depends on providing habitats for forage supply and
refuge from risks of temperature, predation and disease. Moose (Alces alces) accumulate …

The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of high ambient temperature on rabbit
feed consumption, growth, viability, and fecundity, as well as the morphology and endocrine …

Heat stress can impair the rabbit immune system, induce oxidative stress, and cause many
complications. These diseases are characterized by metabolic disorders, but the underlying …

Intraspecific feeding choices comprise a large portion of herbivore foraging decisions. Plant
resource quality is heterogeneously distributed, affected by nutrient availability and growing …

Simple Summary Caecotrophy in small herbivores, including rabbits, is the instinctive
behavior of eating soft feces. Little is known about the impact of caecotrophy on growth and …

Nutritional ecologists aim to predict population or landscape-level effects of food availability,
but the tools to extrapolate nutrition from small to large extents are often lacking. The …

Studying how different environmental parameters, such as resource availability and ambient
temperature, affect growth rates aids to understand the evolution of different growth …

Aims When deciding whether or not to eat a plant, herbivores are influenced by the
nutritional value of potential foods, but also indirectly by neighbouring plants (associational …
