The use of small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS; also known as “drones”) for professional
and personal-leisure use is increasing enormously. UAS operate at low altitudes (< 500 m) …

Roads fragment landscapes and trigger human colonization and degradation of
ecosystems, to the detriment of biodiversity and ecosystem functions. The planet's remaining …

Roads and traffic impacts on wildlife populations are well documented. Three major
mechanisms can cause them: reduced connectivity, increased mortality and reduced habitat …

Abstract Space‐use behaviour reflects trade‐offs in meeting ecological needs and can have
consequences for individual survival and population demographics. The mechanisms …

Aim Roads are a major threat for wildlife, degrading habitat and causing mortality via wildlife–
vehicle collisions. In Latin America, the conjunction of high biodiversity and a rapidly …

Linear infrastructures (eg roads, railways or power lines) promote a myriad of negative
impacts on wildlife around the world, of which direct mortality is the most visible one. When …

Increasing levels of human activity threaten wildlife populations through direct mortality,
habitat degradation, and habitat fragmentation. Area closures can improve habitat quality for …

The fine-scale behavior of wildlife when crossing roads and interacting with traffic is likely to
mirror natural responses to predation risk including not responding, pausing, avoiding, or …

Understanding when and where roadkill is most likely to occur is vital to reducing wildlife-
vehicle collisions. However, little is known about how roadkill rates change through time and …

Human activity and associated landscape modifications alter the movements of animals with
consequences for populations and ecosystems worldwide. Species performing long …
