Understanding movement data and movement processes: current and emerging directions

TL;DR: This work synthesizes emerging themes in movement ecology, and proposes a new hierarchical model for animal movement that builds on these emerging themes and moves away from traditional random walks, and instead focuses inference on how moving animals with complex behavior interact with their landscape and make choices about its suitability.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Emerging Role of Zoos to Conserve Biodiversity

TL;DR: In situ conservation actions will need to be combined with ex situ approaches, such as captive breeding in zoos, aquariums, and so on, to reduce pressures on the planet's biodiversity.

Sex differences in adult lifespan and aging rates of mortality across wild mammals

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, in the wild, mammalian females live longer than males but the authors did not detect any sex differences in aging rates, Contrary to a widespread hypothesis, it is revealed that sex Differences in life history strategies do not detectably influence the magnitude ofsex differences in either lifespan or aging rates.
