Factors affecting crop damage by wild boar and methods of mitigation in a giant panda reserve
TL;DR: Over a 3-year period, it was found that almost half of households in the local village sustained crop damage, that wild boar frequently raided maize, potato, and wheat adjoining the reserve, and that boar usually raided croplands at night and preferred the actual crops.

TL;DR: This study shows that of the 411 bird species recorded from 1877–1938, 45 (10.9%) were no longer recorded from 2004–2006, and larger birds were more likely to have disappeared than smaller ones, potentially explained by differential ecological requirements and anthropogenic exploitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of painting in satin bowerbirds Ptilonorhynchus violaceus and males’ responses to changes in their paint
TL;DR: It is indicated that fresh wet paint is more important to males than older dried paint and suggested that paint may act as a signal to females, given that females nibble bower sticks during courtship.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eld’s Deer Translocated to Human-Inhabited Areas Become Nocturnal
TL;DR: Monitoring of Hainan Eld’s deer living within a reserve and translocated animals living amongst villagers shows that translocated deer deviated from a crepuscular activity pattern and became increasingly nocturnal, and most active when villagers were not.
Journal ArticleDOI
Male satin bowerbirds (Ptilonorhynchus violaceus) compensate for sexual signal loss by enhancing multiple display features.
TL;DR: It is found that male satin bowerbirds compensated for decoration loss by increasing bower construction behaviour and decreasing their latency to bower painting, suggesting that males can assess the quality of their own display and make decisions about how to augment their displays.
