Abstract: In the sub-Antarctic, where food webs are relatively simple and species richness is low, the introduction of predators can be devastating, as native prey may lack sufficient defences and native predators may be less competitive.… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Sympatric animals may consume diets of differing breadths as a strategy to reduce competition. Studying patterns of dietary breadth in extinct taxa is difficult because available data are generally limited to morphology. Dental topographic… read more here.

Abstract: Identifying what drove the late Pleistocene megafaunal extinctions on the continents remains one of the most contested topics in historical science. This is especially so in Australia, which lost 90% of its large species by… read more here.
