(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The forage maturation hypothesis (FMH) states that energy intake for ungulates is maximised when forage biomass is at intermediate levels. Nevertheless, metabolic allometry and different digestive systems suggest that ...

      Camera trapping has revolutionized wildlife ecology and conservation by providing automated data acquisition, leading to the accumulation of massive amounts of camera trap data worldwide. Although management and processing ...
    • A Comparison of Small Rodent Assemblages after a 20 Year Interval in the Alps 

      Ferrari, Giulia; Scaravelli, Dino; Mustoni, Andrea; Armanini, Marco; Zibordi, Filippo; Devineau, Olivier; Cagnacci, Francesca; Grasso, Donato; Ossi, Federico (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Human-induced environmental alterations in the Alps may importantly affect small mammal species, but evidence in this sense is limited. We live-trapped small rodents in the Central Eastern Italian Alps in three close-by ...
