DOI: 10.1002/ece3.11524
Abstract: Abstract Sloth bears are non‐carnivorous yet they attack more people than any other bear. They often stand up and charge explosively if a person mistakenly gets too close. Here, we argue that their aggression toward… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4620
Abstract: Abstract Large carnivore populations are globally threatened by human impacts. Better protection could benefit carnivores, co‐occurring species, and the ecosystems they inhabit. The relationship between carnivores and humans, however, is not always consistent in areas… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.72592
Abstract: ABSTRACT Tiger ( Panthera tigris ) and leopard ( Panthera pardus ) are two congener species and wherever they live together are found to compete for space and habitat. The study on habitat suitability and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7380
Abstract: Abstract In multipredator systems, group sizes of social carnivores are shaped by the asymmetric intraguild interactions. Subordinate social carnivores experience low recruitment rates as an outcome of predation pressure. In South and Southeast Asia, the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10592-018-1084-5
Abstract: Global tiger Panthera tigris populations mostly survive within the geographically fragmented forest patches, thereby limited genetic exchange between isolated populations. Assessing the genetic status of these populations can reveal the effects of dispersal barriers and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10641-018-0813-4
Abstract: Many grouper (Epinephelidae) species aggregate to spawn at specific times of year, at consistent locations, and at specific times of day and phases of the moon. The tiger grouper (Mycteroperca tigris) is widely distributed in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12686-017-0963-2
Abstract: Diet reconstruction of carnivores elucidates ecology of the species and prey-predator relationship in different bioclimatic regions. Micro-histological analyses of undigested prey hairs from tiger scats have widely been used for reconstruction of predator diet. However,… read more here.
