TL;DR: A global dataset on species responses to fragmentation and a statistical approach for quantifying edge impacts in heterogeneous landscapes are assembled to quantify edge-determined changes in abundance of 1,673 vertebrate species and highlight the pervasive ability of forest edges to restructure ecological communities on a global scale.

TL;DR: The PREDICTS project as discussed by the authors provides a large, reasonably representative database of comparable samples of biodiversity from multiple sites that differ in the nature or intensity of human impacts relating to land use.

TL;DR: How maximising trade bans; working on human behaviour change and improving regulatory efforts to improve surveillance will decrease the risk of future pandemics, epidemics and outbreaks is discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors created an online survey to assess whether such campaigns could be effective in reducing demand for exotic pets, particularly if focused on zoonotic disease and legal consequences.

TL;DR: The authors examined trade in wild-sourced grey parrots between 2014 and 2017, integrating data gathered via social media with other information sources and expert knowledge to gain insight into the scale and scope of trade.
