Not all Iberian lynx movements are the same 🐾
Using GPS data of 124 lynxes we found that:
-Resident lynxes avoided human areas
-Dispersers tolerated crossing them
-Reintroduced lynxes were particularly cautious in their new environments
A remarkable plasticity for living in heterogeneous landscapes

In #XVIRUSI in Portugal I presented the differences estimating Golden Eagles' diet by prey remains vs camera traps. #RaptorResearch
Prey remains overestimate big prey (e.g. roe deer) and camera traps detect better reptiles. @paellalab.bsky.social

El lince ibérico, ¿por dónde se mueve y qué hábitats prefiere?

Respondemos diferenciando sus preferencias en las áreas de campeo, residencias transitorias, excursiones y dispersiones.

Analizando los datos proporcionados por 124 linces con collares GPS.

The Iberian lynx habitat selection: we show how it depends on lynx movement phases.

Separately considering home ranges, transient residences, excursions, post-release dispersals and dispersals.

Analysing a large GPS telemetry dataset from 124 lynxes.

El Hayedo de Montejo: la investigación como base para su gestión.
Este es el objeto de la jornada que se celebrará este miércoles 19 de marzo en la Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería de Montes, Forestal y del Medio Natural de la @upm.es.

Comenzamos el proyecto SafeNet del Horizonte Europa con el objetivo de contribuir a salvaguardar la biodiversidad y la capacidad de adaptación de los bosques europeos.

Mediante el trabajo conjunto de 14 socios europeos.

Reintroductions of “the Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) and Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in Europe, are providing a solid foundation of experience for the reintroduction of smaller felines elsewhere”.
More on the adaptation of reintroduced Iberian lynxes: doi.org/10.1016/j.bi...

Many small cat reintroduction initiatives are happening or under consideration worldwide: wildcats (Scotland), ocelots (Argentina & USA), southern tiger cats & margays (Brazil), black-footed cats (South Africa), clouded leopards (Taiwan) & flat-headed cats (Thailand).

Thrill to start sharing news about golden eagles and other raptors' ecology.
And other wildlife too... 🦅🦏🦉🦍

¡Celebramos la introducción de dos nuevas poblaciones de #lince ibérico en #Cuenca y #Palencia!

📍 Estas poblaciones, junto a las creadas recientemente en #Murcia y #Granada, acercan el objetivo de 750 hembras y 3.000-3.500 ejemplares para considerar al lince fuera de peligro.

India has "75% of the world’s tigers, despite having just 18% of the global tiger habitat".
From less than 1,500 tigers in 2006 to 3,682 currently. Nearly 50% inhabiting human multiple-use habitats, home to 60m people.

"New research reveals how predators and prey adjust their behaviours in space and time! 📷 Using camera-trap data from Brazil and Suriname, we found that red-rumped agoutis adjust their activity patterns in response to ocelots' presence."
