Our understanding of ungulate migration is advancing rapidly due to innovations in modern
animal tracking. Herein, we review and synthesize nearly seven decades of work on …

A priority research field addresses how to optimize diverse ecosystem services to people,
including biodiversity support, regulatory, utilitarian and cultural services. This field may …

Herbivorous animals tend to seek out plants at intermediate phenological states to improve
energy intake while minimizing consumption of fibrous material. In some ecosystems, the …

Prevailing theories about animal foraging behaviours and the food webs they occupy offer
divergent predictions about whether seasonally limited food availability promotes dietary …

Droughts are increasing in frequency and severity globally due to climate change, leading to
changes in resource availability that may have cascading effects on animal ecology …

Body size is closely related to the trophic level and abundance of soil fauna, particularly
nematodes. Therefore, size-based analyses are increasingly prominent in unveiling soil …

In semi-arid environments characterized by erratic rainfall and scattered primary production,
migratory movements are a key survival strategy of large herbivores to track resources over …

Species interactions such as facilitation and predation influence food webs, yet it is unclear
how they are mediated by environmental gradients. Here we test the stress gradient …

A unique property of the Paleolithic record is the possibility to observe human societies in
large areas and over long periods of time. At these large spatial and temporal scales, a …

Despite being key conservation instruments, the ecological effectiveness of protected areas
(PAs) is contested. To assess the ecological effectiveness of PAs in the Katavi‐Rukwa …
