The paper surveys small mammal diversity in the Santa Catalina Mountains, documenting 15 species and extending the known elevational range for 8 species.

The paper examines how historical habitat configuration influences the current distribution of Arizona gray squirrels in the Madrean Archipelago using climate models and habitat metrics.

This study investigates giraffe crop raiding in Kenya, finding that it occurs mainly in dry seasons and involves mangoes, with effective countermeasures combining physical barriers and behavior-based strategies.

This study analyzes bobcat movement patterns near roads to inform strategies for reducing vehicle collisions and improving habitat connectivity.

This study examines how climate change affects the movement patterns of giant anteaters, finding that rising temperatures reduce their movement speed and increase reliance on native forests.

The paper introduces local corrections to kernel density estimation to reduce spillover bias in home range estimation and demonstrates their effectiveness through simulations and a case study.

This study shows that Guenther's dik-dik in areas with higher human activity have shorter flight initiation distances and respond more to non-specific predation cues than to predator cues that avoid humans.

The paper updates the Mammal Diversity Database (MDD2) to include 6,759 mammal species, showing increases in species counts and identifying trends in taxonomic and geographic knowledge over time.
