DOI: 10.1007/s10531-017-1363-3
Abstract: In island ecosystems, a considerable portion of the limited conservation resources are often channelled to the eradication of vertebrate invasive species. Since the 1950s, nearly 900 successful invasive vertebrate eradications have taken place (DIISE 2015)… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/d15050598
Abstract: The phenology of migratory bird species is a crucial aspect of their biology that has far-reaching implications for wildlife management, particularly when these species are hunted as game. For this reason, many monitoring projects have… read more here.

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.15151
Abstract: Estimates of wildlife population size are critical for conservation and management, but accurate estimates are difficult to obtain for many species. Several methods have recently been developed that estimate abundance using kinship relationships observed in… read more here.
