Knowledge of reproductive characteristics and performance (RCP) is necessary to estimate a species' breeding output and provide indicators to evaluate population health. Long-term data are

Show me your tail, if you have one! Is inbreeding depression occurring in wildcats (Felis silvestris silvestris) from Italy?

Knowledge of genetic diversity is important to wildlife conservation because genetically depleted populations experience an increased risk of extinction. Mammalian carnivores are characterized by

Evaluating the outcomes of genetic rescue attempts

Genomically explicit, individual‐based simulations were used to examine the effectiveness of common approaches for determining whether genetic rescue or outbreeding depression occurred and the use of multiple metrics provided nonredundant information and improved inference reliability.

Determining puma habitat suitability in the Eastern USA

Pumas (Puma concolor) were eliminated from most of the eastern USA a century ago. In the past couple of decades, their recovery in the West has increased puma dispersal into the Midwest, with some

Correction to: Determining puma habitat suitability in the Eastern USA

Genetic diversity and family groups detected in a coyote population with red wolf ancestry on Galveston Island, Texas

Background Hybridization can be a conservation concern if genomic introgression leads to the loss of an endangered species’ unique genome, or when hybrid offspring are sterile or less fit than their

Feline Leukemia Virus Frequently Spills Over from Domestic Cats to North American Pumas

Feline leukemia virus (FeLV) is a retrovirus that primarily affects domestic cats. Close interactions with domestic cats, including predation, can lead to the interspecific transmission of the virus

Where have all the lions gone? Establishing realistic baselines to assess decline and recovery of African lions

Predict empirically the current and recent historical (c1970) landscape connectivity and population size of the African lion as a baseline against which to assess conservation of the species.

Body growth, mass at sexual maturity, and sexual dimorphism in Florida panthers (Puma concolor coryi)

Recognizing individual variation in body growth characteristics and size at sexual maturity is of particular interest because they indicate a potential source of variance in survival and reproductive

While genetic rescue is known to benefit population viability, the duration of that benefit is poorly understood. We document what appears to be the waning benefit of genetic rescue after

Long-term experimental hybrid swarms between nearly incompatible Tigriopus californicus populations: persistent fitness problems and assimilation by the superior population

Results were strikingly different from a recent study of a different pair of populations showing extensive introgression and superior fitness in hybrid populations, demonstrating how long-term consequences of population mixing depend on the relative fitness and level of compatibility between hybridizing populations.

MARK provides parameter estimates from marked animals when they are re-encountered at a later time as dead recoveries, or live recaptures or re-sightings. The time intervals between re-encounters do
