DOI: 10.1007/s00436-022-07523-6
Abstract: Land disturbances caused by urban development modify and create novel habitats with novel ecological pressures, which in turn may negatively affect remaining wildlife populations, e.g. by altering interspecific interactions. However, it is not clear whether… read more here.
