International agreements mandate the expansion of Earth's protected-area network as a
bulwark against the continued extinction of wild populations, species, and ecosystems. Yet …

Wildlife trade is a key driver of extinction risk, affecting at least 24% of terrestrial vertebrates.
The persistent removal of species can have profound impacts on species extinction risk and …

Ecosystem restoration is one of the most promising strategies for conservation in the
Anthropocene. Within ecosystems, plant-animal interactions are critical to their functioning …

Megafauna assemblages have declined or disappeared throughout much of the world, and
many efforts are underway to restore them. Understanding the trophic ecology of such …

Species interaction networks are traditionally explored as discrete entities with well-defined
spatial borders, an oversimplification likely impairing their applicability. Using a multilayer …

Primate seed dispersal plays crucial roles in many ecological processes at various levels of
biological organization: from plant population genetics and demography to community …

All organisms are ultimately dependent on a large diversity of consumptive and non-
consumptive interactions established with other organisms, forming an intricate web of …

Aim Connectivity among ecosystems is necessary to sustain ecological processes that
promote biodiversity, community stability and ecosystem resilience, such as organism and …

The analyses of the stable isotope ratios of carbon (δ13C), nitrogen (δ15N), and oxygen
(δ18O) in animal tissues are powerful tools for reconstructing the feeding behavior of …

Aim Reinstating large, native herbivores is an essential component of ecological restoration
efforts, as these taxa can be important drivers of ecological processes. However, many …
