The grey wolf (C anis lupus) is an iconic large carnivore that has increasingly been
recognized as an apex predator with intrinsic value and a keystone species. However …

Conservation genetics has provided important information into the dynamics of endangered
populations. The rapid development of genomic methods has posed an important question …

The observation that small isolated populations often suffer reduced fitness from inbreeding
depression has guided conservation theory and practice for decades. However …

High-throughput genoty** technologies developed for model species can potentially
increase the resolution of demographic history and ancestry in wild relatives. We use a SNP …

The widespread occurrence of free‐ranging domestic or feral carnivores (dogs, cats) or
ungulates (pigs, goats), and massive releases of captive‐reproduced game stocks …

Computer simulations are excellent tools for understanding the evolutionary and genetic
consequences of complex processes whose interactions cannot be analytically predicted …

Formerly domesticated organisms and artificially selected genes often escape controlled
cultivation, but their subsequent evolution is not well studied. In this review, we examine …

Habitat suitability models (HSMs) are commonly used in conservation practise to assess the
potential of an area to be occupied and colonised. A major limitation of these models …

Genetic monitoring has rarely been used for wildlife translocations despite the potential
benefits this approach offers, compared to traditional field‐based methods. We applied …

Thanks to protection by law and increasing habitat restoration, wolves (Canis lupus) are
currently re-colonizing Europe from the surviving populations of Russia, the Balkan …
