📢Our new paper on alien vertebrates in the world's mountains is now out @naturecomms.bsky.social. Using data on 700+ spp across ~3,000 mountains we explore their distribution patterns,flows across realms, presence in protected areas, and the factors driving these trends.

#ProcB in nationalgeographic.com | Rapid evolution of prehistoric dogs from wolves by natural and sexual selection emerges from an agent-based model: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/arti...
New model shows dogs could have domesticated themselves
They may have been drawn to the discarded remains from ancient human meals, and a new model shows tame wolves could have become dogs in as little as 8,000 years.

I first read the famous 1925 Yule paper at its 80th birthday - during my Master thesis work, and it shaped my research profoundly. It was a pleasure and honour to lead this special 100 anniversary issue celebrating Yule's legacy and phylogenetic models with @noahrosenberg.bsky.social and Mike Steel!
