Summary 1 Concerns over the ecological impacts of high African elephant Loxodonta
africana densities suggest that it may be necessary to control their numbers locally, although …

Forest edges often have increased species richness and abundance (edge effect) and affect
spatial behaviors of species and dynamics of species interactions. Landscapes of …

Scattered trees and small patches of vegetation among farmland are typical of rural
landscapes throughout the world, often comprising a significant proportion of remaining …

To assess habitat use by foraging bats in southern British Columbia, Canada, we used
narrow band bat detectors and estimated insect availability with light-suction traps. We …

In this study we explored quantitatively the relationships between the size of bats, the
