Predictors of extinction risk in large tropical forest mammals: from global to local

Simon D. Schowanek, Douglas Sheil, Lydia H. Beaudrot, Pierre P. A. Dupont, Santiago Espinosa, Vittoria Estienne, Julia E. Fa, Jonas Geldmann, Patrick A. Jansen, Steig E. Johnson, Francesco Rovero, Fernanda Santos, Asunción Semper‐Pascual, Andrea F. Vallejo‐Vargas, Jorge Ahumada, , Richard Bischof

This study finds that predictors of extinction risk for tropical forest mammals are consistent across spatial scales but vary with temporal extent, highlighting the need to account for time when applying macroecological findings to conservation.
