Dynamic interactions between apex predators reveal contrasting seasonal attraction patterns by Périquet, S, Fritz, H, Revilla, E, Macdonald, D, Loveridge, AJ, Mtare, G, Valeix, M

“…Movements of hyaenas and lions before, during, and after these dry-season encounters suggest two interference scenarios: a passive interference scenario whereby both predators would be attracted to waterholes but lions would leave a waterhole used by hyaenas because of prey disturbance, and an active interference scenario whereby hyaenas would actively chase lions from waterhole areas, which are prime hunting grounds. This study highlights the seasonal dynamics of predator interactions and illustrates how the relative importance of negative interactions (interference competition during the dry season) and positive interactions (scavenging opportunities during the wet season) shifts over the course of the year.…”

Ecological Peculiarities of the Habitat of the Common Pheasant (Phasianus colchicus L.) in the Modern Forest-Steppe of Ukraine by V.P. Novytskyi

“…At the time, as in the left bank –an increase in the number of birds in the hunting grounds, to the level of the density of cenopopulations in the LS-2 or more at the expense of introduction on the background of complex ecological monitoring of vital functions of the species should be the fundamental basis for further improvement.…”

Testing the effects of perimeter fencing and elephant exclosures on lion predation patterns in a Kenyan wildlife conservancy by Marc Dupuis-Desormeaux, Zeke Davidson, Laura Pratt, Mary Mwololo, Suzanne E. MacDonald

“…Although some exclosures provide good hunting grounds for lions, we concluded that exclosures did not necessarily create prey-traps per se and that managers could continue to use this type of exclusionary fencing to protect stands of dense vegetation.…”

Territorial pattern between outbreaks of ASF among wild and domestic pigs in Ukraine by Ye. O. Dudnyk

“…When analyzing statistical data of the recent years, the effectiveness of introducing more detailed monitoring of African swine fever among wild boars using modern laboratory methods and improving biosafety measures in the private sector and directly on hunting grounds has been proved. Further research is based on predicting the dynamics of the spread of African swine fever in Ukraine and the role of wild boar in this epizootic process. …”

Dzharylhach Island (Ukraine): results of game management research in 1991–2022 by Ihor Sheihas

“…The main reason for this is the traditional change in the use of the land after the creation of a national park in the territory of the experimental hunting grounds in 2009. At the same time, given the importance of the economic and conservation status of the national park, it is necessary to fundamentally address the issue of increasing the productivity of the common territory by users of the provided lands, based on the long-term positive examples of the work of national parks in the vast majority of countries. …”

Determinants of traffic mortality of Barn Owls (Tyto alba) in Friesland, The Netherlands by Johan de. Jong, Arnold van den Burg, Allan Liosi

“…We conclude that in years when prey availability in the agricultural fields is high, roads/verges are not favored as hunting grounds. Therefore, the best option to reduce owl traffic victims is to improve the quality of farmland as foraging areas, and secondly to make design adjustments at major junctions to reduce owl-traffic collisions.…”
