Researchers have probed the genetics of one of Australia's most elusory animals, the marsupial mole.

Integrated morphology, fossil records, and SDM reveal the evolution and adaptation in the snow leopard lineage.

Nature Communications - Pesticides affect a diverse range of non-target species and the magnitude of this hazard remains only partially understood. Wan et al. found that insecticides, fungicides...

Researchers developed a way to run tests on fish learning and memory in the animals' natural environments. The results may reveal that fish are smarter than previously assumed.

Thousands of dodos could return within a decade according to Colossal Biosciences, a ‘de-extinction’ company – but experts warn of ‘moral hazard’

Scientific Reports - Year-round acoustic presence of fin whales southwest of Svalbard suggests mixed-use habitat for feeding and breeding

Animals in arid environments must maintain water balance despite persistent drought, heat and low food availability. Blood serum osmolality offers an integrative physiological measure of hydration, yet no prior study has examined it in wild mammals across…

Behaviour among non-human species could help keep groups together in face of social challenges, says study

Global biodiversity policies recognize the necessity to preserve evolutionary lineages, as their diversity underpins current and future benefits to people and the future of life on Earth. Plants are largely absent from global biodiversity assessments, ...

A Yale-led analysis of millions of animal movements reveals how the mere presence of people, not just landscape change, can reshape how species use space and environment, with implications for conservation efforts.

The new freezing method – 30 times faster than current protocols – could be used to improve assisted reproduction in humans or animals or to conserve biodiversity.

Conflict zones are inherently hazardous and inaccessible for researchers, which results in a knowledge gap about the immediate effects of armed conflicts on the environment, particularly wildlife. We used camera-trap detections to investigate the impact ...

Most of us don’t have grandma for dinner. Not even when there’s nothing else in the pantry.

A new global assessment of the world’s migratory species finds reason for alarm, but also hope – and a road map for helping them survive.

Periodical cicada (Magicicada spp.) ranges have continued to decline even as their habitat has rebounded from historic lows. This counterintuitive trajectory may be a consequence of Magicicada's limi...
