Journal ArticleDOI
Predator interactions, mesopredator release and biodiversity conservation
TL;DR: There is potential for the restoration of apex predators to have benefits for biodiversity conservation through moderation of the impacts of mesopredators on their prey, but this requires a whole-ecosystem view to avoid unforeseen negative effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiversity losses and conservation responses in the Anthropocene.

TL;DR: Many examples of conservation success show that losses can be halted and even reversed, and building on these lessons to turn the tide of biodiversity loss will require bold and innovative action to transform historical relationships between human populations and nature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abundance and the environmental niche: Environmental suitability estimated from niche models predicts the upper limit of local abundance
TL;DR: It is concluded that environmental suitability modeled from presence‐only data provides useful information on spatial patterns of abundance, and implications of this in addressing important problems in ecology are discussed.
Book
Australia's Mammal Extinctions: A 50,000-Year History
TL;DR: This book introduces readers to the great mammal extinction debate by taking a detective-like tour of these extinctions, uncovering how, why and when they occurred.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rarity of a top predator triggers continent-wide collapse of mammal prey: dingoes and marsupials in Australia
TL;DR: It is suggested that many remaining Australian mammals would benefit from the positive management of dingoes, and a strong positive relationship between the survival of marsupials and the geographical overlap with high-density dingo populations is shown.
