Finally out! We examined whether mouse #lemur species exhibit varying density responses to #edge #effects across fragmented landscapes. Our results demonstrate that differences in density patterns can be attributed to species-specific traits and the scale of analysis.
Do #edge #effects vary in closely related mouse #lemur species? This is the question @91Fernandom3 and the Lehman Lab from @utoronto asked in the 10th paper from @AMelinLab and my special issue of @AmJournalPrimat on #primatology in #Canada.
