New data on the distribution and intraspecific variation of the Millard’s giant rat Dacnomys millardi (Mammalia, Rodentia) from Vietnam
Mammal Research - Tập 62 - Trang 307-311 - 2017
The paper presents an analysis of a genetic and morphological variation of Dacnomys millardi from seven Vietnamese localities, including a new finding from southern Vietnam which lies some 1000 km to the south of the currently known limit of the species range. Samples from northern and southern Vietnam do not differ significantly in their cranial and oversize characteristics. Surprisingly, they ar......
Pine marten vs. stone marten in agricultural lowlands: a landscape-scale, genetic survey
Mammal Research - Tập 61 Số 4 - Trang 327-335 - 2016
Habitat structure and the presence of large carnivores shape the site use of an understudied small carnivore: caracal ecology in a miombo woodland
Mammal Research - Tập 68 - Trang 113-120 - 2022
Basic ecological knowledge on African small carnivores and how they interact with the wider carnivore guild are lacking for many species. The caracal (Caracal caracal) has a widespread distribution across Africa, yet there is a paucity of information on this species outside of savannah and agricultural landscapes. Using camera trap data from Kasungu National Park, Malawi, we provide novel informat......
Agricultural land-use intensity and its effects on small mammals in the central region of Argentina
Mammal Research - Tập 60 - Trang 415-423 - 2015
Agriculture intensification is one of the main threats to biodiversity in agricultural systems. The effectiveness of conservation strategies in these systems depends mainly on the compromise between biodiversity conservation and agricultural land use. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of land-use intensity, characteristics of linear habitats (field borders) and their surrounding field......
Macro- and micro-habitat selection of small rodents and their predation risk perception under a novel invasive predator at the southern end of the Americas
Mammal Research - Tập 63 - Trang 267-275 - 2018
Invasive predators are responsible for the extinction of numerous island species worldwide. The naïve prey hypothesis suggests that the lack of co-evolutionary history between native prey and introduced predators results in the absence of behavioral responses to avoid predation. The lack of terrestrial mammal predators is a core feature of islands at the southern end of the Americas. Recently, how......
Effect of inbreeding on kittens’ body mass in Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx)
Mammal Research - Tập 65 - Trang 545-554 - 2020
The development of industry and agriculture and the continuous growth of human population on Earth have dramatically increased anthropogenic pressure on natural ecosystems and wildlife. As a result, fragmentation of the natural habitats and the decrease in genetic diversity in these populations increase the probability of reproduction with genetically closely related individuals (inbreeding). Howe......
Unique reproductive traits of the Amami rabbit Pentalagus furnessi: an endangered endemic species from southwestern Japan
Mammal Research - - 2020
The Amami rabbit Pentalagus furnessi is an endangered leporid species and is endemic to the two subtropical islands (Amami-Oshima Island and Tokunoshima Island) in the Ryukyu Archipelago in southwestern Japan. In total, 11 breeding burrows of this rabbit were detected from 1994 to 2017 in Amami-Oshima Island. Breeding was observed from November to December in most cases and in May in one case. The......
Spatial organization and intraspecific relationships of the southern water vole (Arvicola sapidus) in a Mediterranean mountain river: what is the role of habitat quality?
Mammal Research - Tập 61 - Trang 255-268 - 2016
An understanding of population dynamics, especially in endangered species that present metapopulation structures, such Arvicola sapidus, is important to gain knowledge of the dispersal and patterns of both occupation and space use. Here, we use radio tracking to report for the first time the relationship of the southern water vole with the environment in a Mediterranean mountain riparian area and ......
Temporal coexistence in a carnivore assemblage from central Mexico: temporal-domain dependence
Mammal Research - Tập 64 - Trang 333-342 - 2019
Species coexistence at a given locality generally implies segregation along one of the three resource dimensions of the ecological niche: spatial, trophic or temporal. Temporal activity patterns of species are ecologically important as they expose how species exploit their environments. Using camera traps, we evaluated the temporal activity patterns and temporal overlap for a mammalian carnivore a......
Associations between sympatric apex predators across a diverse landscape
Mammal Research - Tập 64 - Trang 203-212 - 2018
Coexistence between sympatric predators is achieved through a variety of behaviors that reduce competitive interactions. We examined fine-scale co-occurrence between sympatric apex predators across a large and highly variable landscape characterized by anthropogenic presence and related mortality in Idaho, USA. We analyzed data from 201 camera traps across 130,000 km2 to examine spatiotemporal ass......
