Fire shapes animal communities by altering resource availability and species interactions, including between predators and prey. In Australia, there is particular concern that two …
Resource selection by animals influences individual fitness, the abundance of local populations, and the distribution of species. Further, the degree to which individuals select …
Fire is a major driver of community composition and habitat structure and is extensively used as an ecological management tool in flammable landscapes. Interactions between fire and …

Despite the importance of mammal‐fungal interactions, tools to estimate the mammal‐ assisted dispersal distances of fungi are lacking. Many mammals actively consume fungal …
Body size affects key life‐history parameters including dietary requirements and predation risk. We examined these effects on diel habitat use in a community of three sexually …
Specialist species show stronger resource selection, narrower niches and lower niche overlap than generalist species. We examined ecological specialisation with respect to …
Mammal-macrofungal interactions are integral to ecosystem function in landscapes dominated by ectomycorrhizal (EM) plants. EM fungi, critical symbiont's with forest plants …
