Wildlife Ecology and Conservation

This cluster of papers covers a wide range of topics in wildlife ecology and conservation biology, including estimating occupancy rates, analyzing animal movement patterns, trophic cascades, habitat selection, population dynamics of large herbivores and carnivores, human-wildlife conflict, camera trapping for wildlife monitoring, and strategies for conservation management. It also explores the impact of predation risk on prey species, global biodiversity loss, and the ecological implications of human-induced stress on animal behavior.

166,848 works

Papers listed on taxonomy pages are the top few works per node from the OpenAlex snapshot. That list is not exhaustive and is not an endorsement. The topic map and the journal registry remain separate: there is still no authoritative topic-to-venue or topic-to-organization edge. Search is a lexical lookup, not a claim that a venue publishes a topic.
