Using 20 years of wolf data during the recolonization of Germany, we show what distribution modelling approach is the most accurate to predict future areas for range expansion and how the habitat selection of the species changes along the recolonization steps.
European bison mortality cases on roads and railways in Poland were collected. 70 European bison were killed between 2010 and 2021. Increasing trend of European bison traffic fatalities has been observed. Most animals were killed in Western Poland, mainly on a national road. Effective mitigation measures are needed to ensure the safety of European bison and people.
Integrating many animal tracking datasets for Eurasian lynx across Europe, we compared modeling approaches for assessing habitat at a continental level and applied them to produce consistent, high-resolution suitability maps for the recovering carnivore species.
We are excited to invite applications for a new Postdoc position on assessing rewilding opportunities in freshwater systems. Join us at the Conservation and Biogeography Lab at Humboldt University Berlin!

By understanding deforestation patterns and the interaction with protected areas and IPLs, we can better understand how to tailor conservation strategies and support these unique socio-ecological systems.
Understanding the long-term outcomes of disturbances on forest structure is important to gain insight into forest degradation processes. In this work, we assessed the effect of different disturbance agents on aboveground biomass and woody cover in the Argentine Dry Chaco..
Using a continental-scale animal tracking dataset, we show that variation in habitat use by a large carnivore (Eurasian lynx) is driven by gradients of human pressure and refuge habitat availability, with lynx increasingly depending on refuge habitats in human-dominated landscapes.
