Abstract The European brown hare Lepus europaeus is the most widely distributed hare
species of the world, being naturally present throughout Eurasia and introduced as a game …

Landscape features of anthropogenic or natural origin can influence organisms' dispersal
patterns and the connectivity of populations. Understanding these relationships is of broad …

Estimating abundance is an essential component of monitoring and recovery of rare

Despite advances in genomic sequencing and bioinformatics, conservation genomics is still
often hindered by a reliance on non-invasive samples. The presence of exogenous DNA …

Landscape modification and habitat fragmentation disrupt the connectivity of natural
landscapes, with major consequences for biodiversity. Species that require patchily …

Habitat quality regulates fitness and population density, making it a key driver of population
size. Hence, increasing habitat quality is often a primary goal of species conservation. Yet …

Monitoring within an adaptive management framework provides important insights about
system responses to management and information on which management actions to adjust …

Targeted, single‐species management and ecosystem‐based management are generally
considered disparate conservation approaches. In imperiled ecosystems, these approaches …
