Context. Predators are major beneficiaries of artificial water points in arid environments, yet little is known of the effects of water on the distribution of many sympatric species. Intraguild interactions around water points in arid Australia [...]

Context. Feral pigs are thought to damage tropical rainforests, but long-term impact has not yet been quantified. Aims. This study aimed to determine the impact of feral pigs on soil, soil biota and vegetation in a lowland tropical rainforest in[...]

Context. Auditory devices used to deter wildlife are a potentially humane and effective way of minimising deleterious interactions with humans and their livelihoods and have been used successfully for many species around the world. Acoustic cues[...]

Context. The toxins produced by cane toads (Rhinella marina) are fatal to many Australian predators that ingest these invasive anurans. To date, the potential economic impact of the cane toad invasion has attracted little attention. Toads have r[...]

Context. Hunting-related (hereafter harvest) mortality is assumed to be compensatory in many exploited species. However, when harvest mortality is additive, hunting can lead to population declines, especially on public land where hunting pressur[...]

Context. The red-tailed phascogale once occurred widely across semiarid and arid Australia, but is now confined to the southern wheatbelt of Western Australia. Its apparently extensive former range suggests a broad habitat tolerance, yet it is n[...]

Context. The estimation of population parameters for mammalian carnivore species is a challenging task because of their low densities and large home ranges, which make detection probabilities very low. Several factors, such as the species abunda[...]

Context. Some large herbivores introduced to Australia have achieved population densities so high as to cause considerable ecological damage. Intriguingly, others have been relatively less successful and have correspondingly perturbed their new [...]

Context. The mitigation of feral pig (Sus scrofa) impacts in north Queensland's World Heritage tropical rainforests is constrained by the lack of an effective and target-specific poison baiting method. Aims. This study aimed to determine whether[...]

Context. Predator dynamics may be related to prey abundance and influenced by environmental effects, such as climate. Predator-prey interactions may be represented by mechanistic models that comprise a deterministic skeleton with stochastic clim[...]
