Weaving knowledges to support wildlife health surveillance in Kenya's pastoral rangelandsNARA Subscribed
In wildlife–livestock–human interfaces, pathogens capable of spreading between wild and domestic animals and humans have important implications for conservation outcomes, economics, and public health. Robust wildlife health surveillance can help address these risks. However, capacity and resource constraints hinder effective wildlife health surveillance at regional and national scales, particularly in lower‐ and middle‐income...
Admixture and reproductive skew shape the conservation value of ex situ populations of the Critically Endangered eastern black rhinoNARA Subscribed
Small populations of endangered species risk losing already eroded genetic diversity, important for adaptive potential, through the effects of genetic drift. The magnitude of drift can be mitigated by maximising the effective population size, as is the goal of genetic management strategies. Different mating systems, specifically those leading to reproductive skew, exacerbate genetic drift by distorting contributions. In the ab...
Sulawesi Crested Macaque (Macaca nigra) Grooming Networks Are Robust to Perturbation While Individual Associations Are More LabileNARA Subscribed
Social and environmental disturbance occurs naturally, and species in bonded social groups should be resilient to it. Empirical evidence of social responses to disturbance in primates, however, remains limited. We constructed social networks using group-level scan samples ( N = 299) to test the robustness of grooming networks in a captive group of 20 Sulawesi crested macaques ( Macaca nigra ) to two management interventions in...
