Competition is a major determinant of where species occur and how species interact.
Among carnivorans, interspecific competition is particularly apparent, as many of these …

Reintroductions are increasingly occurring in landscapes differing from historical conditions.
These novel landscapes often feature unknown connectivity, creating uncertainty around …

Biodiversity decline and genetic erosion are among the most challenging conservation
issues. Genetic admixture, the mixing of two or more genetically differentiated populations …

Context Functional landscape connectivity is vital for the conservation of wildlife species.
Landscape connectivity models often overlook factors such as mortality and asymmetry in …

Rapid environmental change is resha** ecosystems and driving species loss globally.
Carnivore populations have declined and retracted rapidly and have been the target of …

The evolutionary consequences of natural introgression provide a rare opportunity to
retrospectively evaluate how the introduction of exotics or genetic rescue efforts may impact …

Globally, conservation translocations are common often using island, or 'virtual
island'populations as a source site. We investigated demographic and genetic …

Aim Evaluating the patterns of genetic variation and population connectivity is fundamental
to effectively designing and implementing conservation strategies for threatened species …

The aim of this document is to set out a strategic, long-term recovery plan for pine martens in
Britain. It follows on from a previous strategy produced in 2011 (Jordan, 2011), which …

Objectives To understand how dispersal behavior and functional connectivity between
populations of American martens respond to changes to the landscape due to land-use and …
