Wildlife-Road Interactions and Conservation

A versatile survey method for repeatedly monitoring individual road-kill

The paper introduces a method for consistently monitoring road-kill using smartphones, demonstrating its effectiveness over 12 years in New Zealand.

Carnivore-mediated seed crossings are more likely on roadkill hotspots

The paper tests how road type and context affect carnivore-mediated seed crossings in Mediterranean oak woodlands, finding higher crossings on unpaved roads and near roadkill hotspots.

Modeling vehicle collision risk for the jungle cat in the Hyrcanian forests of Iran: A guide for vehicle collision prevention

This study models vehicle collision risk for jungle cats in Iran's Hyrcanian forests to identify high-risk areas and recommend mitigation strategies.

Evaluating transboundary connectivity to support cross-border conservation between Canada and the United States

The paper extends a Canadian connectivity model into the USA to create a transboundary map identifying wildlife corridors and connectivity hotspots, showing 20% are protected and highlighting applications for conservation and disease spread.

Roads shape seed dispersal by rodents and carnivores at forest edges

This study examines how road type and location affect seed dispersal by rodents and carnivores, finding roads act as barriers and roadways as corridors for different species.

Maintaining tiger connectivity and minimizing extinction into the next century: Insights from landscape genetics and spatially-explicit simulations

The paper uses landscape genetics and spatial simulations to assess future tiger extinction risks in Central India under different land-use scenarios.
