Balancing conservation and infrastructure developmentConserving land and ecosystem connectivity for wildlife is increasingly a global challenge as demand for infrastructure development to meet growing human population needs encroaches in many traditional
Understanding the spatial structuring of animal behaviors and how they link landscapes can be critical for conservation management.
Network resilience to perturbation is fundamental to functionality in systems ranging from synthetic communication networks to evolved social organization.
Levels and trends of illegal killing of elephants are measured by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) Monitoring the Illegal Killing of Elephants (MIKE) programme in sites across Africa and Asia.
The drivers of social affiliation may vary over time as individuals change their goals with respect to changing environments or physical condition.
Illegal wildlife trade has reached alarming levels globally, extirpating populations of commercially valuable species.
Social structure is proposed to influence the transmission of both directly and environmentally transmitted infectious agents.
The expansion of global communication networks and advances in animal tracking technology make possible the real-time telemetry of positional data as recorded by animal-attached tracking units.
We present a new animal space-use model (Elliptical Time-Density - ETD) that uses discrete-time tracking data collected in wildlife movement studies.
This study investigates the ranging behavior of elephants in relation to precipitation-driven dynamics of vegetation.
