The vast majority of lemur species are on the edge of extinction, experts warn. But not every lemur species faces a grim future. There may be as many as 1.3 million white-fronted brown lemurs still in the wild, for example, and mouse lemurs may number more than 2 million, a Duke-led study has shown.

Seven often wet and muddy researchers can be found bundled in their orange full-body suits sifting through mud on the back deck of the Healy.

Scientists from WCS and University of Hawai’i using new models to identify where forest conservation efforts will minimize human impacts offshore.

The effects of island remoteness from the mainland on the number of species found on islands differs strongly for non-native compared to native species.

Researchers use novel approach to assess temperature stress on deep coral reefs.

In a new study, scientists from the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research (Leibniz-IZW) in Berlin, Germany, tested the response of European bats to red and white light sources during their seasonal migration.

Martens were confirmed on the island for the first time in 76 years.

New research conducted by evolutionary biologists worldwide paints cities as evolutionary “change agents,” says a trio of biologists from the University of Toronto who selected and edited the studies.

Harbor porpoises are one of the smallest marine mammals in the world. They are also difficult to study because they are highly mobile and don’t spend a lot of time at the surface of the water.

New research explores how the Sargassum might grow while it is meandering along the currents, not just where it floats, combining both ocean physics and seaweed biology for the first time to understand its distribution patterns.
