A study by @RiceNatSci ecologist @BeaudrotLydia and collaborators reports for the first time that tropical #mammals living inside protected areas are not spared the effects of human activity even when it occurs outside of the protected boundaries.

Thanks to @ejogorman for this excellent perspective piece covering our recent article / using machine learning to understand the past, present, and future of ecological networks

Some background: Predator-prey interactions are part of the web of life that sustains the diversity and resilience of our ecosystems. Recent animal declines and food web disruption show the consequences of food webs unravelling

But animal declines aren’t only a new thing...

[Evan Fricke @ecfricke]

We show how declines in land mammals have rippled across the web of life by degrading food webs

We chart what we’ve lost, what more we’ll lose if endangered species go extinct, and what potential exists for reversing losses by restoring extant mammals to their historic ranges

[Evan Fricke @ecfricke]

What do the diets of ice age mammals tell us about the biodiversity crisis?

Our new research in @ScienceMagazine asks how extinction and range loss have affected land mammal food webs globally over the last 130,000 years 🧵

Does the stress gradient hypothesis apply to animals? It does for Serengeti grazers along a predation gradient, but not along a consumer gradient: https://t.co/mOiba8mYvE

Plane ticket to Madagascar booked! Super excited to take my lab to the Association for Tropical Biology & Conservation meeting this summer and visit Ranomafana National Park!

How will tropical mammals react to rising temperatures? Temperature matters, but so do other mammal species: https://t.co/5u9Y9I3g15
