TL;DR: It is found that mammal communities from highly fragmented sites have lower species richness, species diversity, functional diversity and higher dominance when compared with sites in partially fragmented and continuous forest.

TL;DR: Evaluating occupancy trends for 511 populations of terrestrial mammals and birds, representing 244 species from 15 tropical forest protected areas on three continents, finds that occupancy declined in 22, increased in 17%, and exhibited no change in 22% of populations during the last 3–8 years, while 39% of population were detected too infrequently to assess occupancy changes.
Post-harvest damage to stored grain by rodents in village environments in Laos
TL;DR: A method to measure the losses caused by rodents to grain stores in rural upland areas of Laos found a weak but positive relationship between fecal droppings and weight loss and an experimental approach is suggested to examine potential factors that might influence rodent damage.
