The process of seed dispersal that underpins ecosystem maintenance is performed by
diverse arrays of fruit‐eating animals. However, seed dispersal studies are primarily focused …

Habitat disturbance has caused a global decline in populations of frugivores, with critical
consequences for seed dispersal. Large-seeded plants are especially threatened as they …

Passive acoustic monitoring is rapidly gaining recognition as a practical, affordable and
robust tool for measuring gun hunting levels within protected areas, and consequently for its …

Frugivory in tropical forests is a major ecological process as most tree species rely on
frugivores to disperse their seeds. However, the underlying mechanisms driving frugivore …

Primates show various behavioral responses to resource seasonality, including changes in
diet and habitat use. These responses may be particularly important for species living in …

Variation in the quality and availability of food resources can greatly influence the ecology,
behavior, and conservation of wild primates. We studied the influence of altitudinal …

Avoiding the conversion of tropical production forests to non-forest land uses is a forestry
and conservation priority, and is contingent on successful regeneration of commercially …

To understand the consequences of an animal extinction on the survival of a plant species, it
is necessary to study the functional redundancy between seed dispersers, both diet overlap …

Tropical forest conservation and restoration require an understanding of the movements and
habitat preferences of important seed dispersers. With forests now being altered at an …
