The buffy-headed marmoset is a critically endangered primate of Brasil. Conservation actions are urgent, but to be effective, they need to be informed. What are the habitat needs of this species? Which areas should be prioritized for conservation?
Make your research accessible to the coming generation! This is the main message of Laura Niccolai after she successfully published an article in Frontiers for Young Minds.
Inn-professor Marco Heurich and colleagues have developed a method to measure the decay of trees. This is important, because it can help us to monitor the health of forests.
Orphaned lynx that might have low chances to survive without their mother in the wild, can be raised in captivity and later released. An article recently published in PlosOne evaluates the rehabilitation of orphaned lynx as a conservation action.
The recovery and expansion of formerly isolated wolf populations in Europe raise questions about the nature of their interactions and future consequences for population viability and conservation. Will fragmented populations fuse or maintain a certain level of isolation with migration?
Using activity trackers mounted on collars, Theresa Kirchner has studied how moose behave when they are disturbed by humans. The defence is set for March 22.
In a newly published article, PhD-student Kristoffer Nordli and colleagues describe how wolverines exploit remains from wolf-killed prey.
In a recently published article, the authors present a method to detect the behaviour of animals caught on videos from wildlife cameras.
The increasing popularity of digital media among protected area visitors poses challenges to protected area management. In a newly published article, Marco Heurich and co-authors have studied the two-sided sword of the digital age in outdoor recreation.
Drones have many uses, including for more peaceful missions than what you hear about in the media every day. In Finnskogen, HINN researchers have studied the moose from a bird's eye view.
Mercury contamination can threaten the survival of amphibians. A research article co-authored by LARGE staff Martin Mayer sets light on mercury pollution from gold mining and how this impacts the tadpoles of an Amazonian frog species.
Cattle are specialized grazers, and this is why we see them in grasslands. So what do they eat when they are in the forest? A new article of the research project CarniForeGraze has investigated this question in depth.
