Abstract: How are the moral relations between communities and the Sumatran tiger (Panthera tigris sumatrae) being reconfigured as forests fragment and land-use change accelerates across Sumatra’s conservation landscape? This article...

Abstract: Human-­tiger conflict is widely assumed to intensify as tiger populations recover, posing a major challenge for the conservation of tigers across its range. Despite the influence of this assumption...

Abstract: Background: The Sumatran tiger (Panthera tigris) conservation meets the major constraint due to animal-human conflict and the presence of infectious diseases in West Sumatra. Ticks are important ectoparasites and...

Abstract: Human perceptions of wildlife are critical to shaping conservation outcomes, particularly in landscapes where people coexist with large carnivores. Religion, a deeply rooted sociocultural force, remains underexplored in the...

Abstract: To restore the Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) population in the northwestern part of its range in Russia, where the species had not been recorded since the 1970s (Jewish...

Abstract:   Large carnivores shape ecosystem structure through trophic cascades and resource facilitation, yet multi year, multi-species density studies remain scarce limiting effective conservation management. This study aimed to address...

Abstract: Emerging infectious diseases are an increasingly important driver of biodiversity loss. African swine fever (ASF) exemplifies this threat. Since 2018, this highly virulent virus has spread rapidly across Asia,...

Abstract: The tiger (Panthera tigris) is an iconic apex predator and an important ecological indicator of forest ecosystem integrity. Its conservation has consequently become closely associated with the protection of...

Abstract: Forest fragmentation caused by land use changes has been linked to human-wildlife conflict. However, a clear understanding of how landscape configuration influences conflict incidents remains limited. In Sumatra, studies...

Abstract: How are the moral relations between communities and the Sumatran tiger (Panthera tigris sumatrae) being reconfigured as forests fragment and land-use change accelerates across Sumatra’s conservation landscape? This article...

Abstract: Ex situ conservation breeding can play an important role in the conservation of rare and threatened species. To achieve this, coordinated conservation breeding programmes, organized regionally or globally, provide...

Abstract: Background: Chromosome-level de novo genome assemblies are vital for many aspects of biological research. Despite technological progress, achieving telomere-to-telomere assemblies remains challenging. Long-read data are critical for a contiguous...

Abstract: Assessing the diet of apex predators such as tiger is important, as it provides key ecological information on prey availability and preferences. It helps to understand the effects of...

Abstract: Estimating prey species densities is critical for implementing effective tiger Panthera tigris recovery strategies. Several statistical models exist for density estimation of unmarked species from camera trap data, all...

Abstract: China is effectively achieving the rapid recovery of the wild Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) population and has a strong chance of reestablishing a sustainable population of over 300...

Abstract: Prey activity patterns are believed to be influenced by, among others, daily and seasonal weather conditions and predation risk. Similarly, predator activities may also be influenced by the same...

Abstract: Human–tiger conflict in plantation landscapes remains a critical safety and conservation issue because encounters between workers and tigers can endanger humans while increasing pressure on endangered tiger populations. This...

Abstract: Inbreeding leads to a reduction in genetic diversity and an elevated likelihood of expressing recessive defective genes, which adversely affect the development of the immune system and render individuals...

Abstract: The Sumatran tiger (Panthera tigris sondaica) is an endemic species of Indonesia currently classified as Critically Endangered, with fewer than 600 individuals remaining in the wild. Beyond its ecological...

Abstract: Chemical cues play an important role in mammalian communication, often reflecting an individual’s physiological state. Non-invasive sampling of such informative cues holds great potential for wildlife monitoring. Endangered apex...
