This study investigates how seasonal changes affect sarcoptic mange in wombats, showing that seasonal environments limit parasite persistence and influence disease prevalence and population dynamics.

The paper quantifies increased transmission in bat communities after white-nose syndrome caused population declines, showing behavioral and ecological changes enhance contact and spread.

The paper investigates how environmental conditions influence disease-induced population declines and recovery in bats, finding that warmer sites had greater initial declines but faster recovery and higher resistance.

The paper examines sex differences in bat activity during mating season and links these patterns to sex-biased infections by the fungal pathogen Pseudogymnoascus destructans.
