Species and sex identification from faecal samples of sympatric carnivores, Amur leopard and Siberian tiger, in the Russian Far East
Taro Sugimoto,Junco Nagata,Vladimir V. Aramilev,Alexander Belozor,Seigo Higashi,Dale R. McCullough +5 more
TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-analyses of the climate-forest-forest interface that shows clear trends in temperature and %VR over time and shows clear patterns of warming and thawing over time that are related to climate change.

Population size estimation of Amur tigers in Russian Far East using noninvasive genetic samples
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used non-invasive genetic samples, such as feces, hairs, and saliva, collected from southwest Primorye Krai during four winters (2000-2001, 2001-2002, 2002-2003, and 2004-2005), to identify 12 tigers (5 males and 7 females) using 10 microsatellite markers.

Noninvasive genetic analyses for estimating population size and genetic diversity of the remaining Far Eastern leopard (Panthera pardus orientalis) population
Taro Sugimoto,Vladimir V. Aramilev,Linda L. Kerley,Junco Nagata,Dale G. Miquelle,Dale R. McCullough +5 more
TL;DR: Given the small population size and the low genetic diversity, with little expectation of replenishment of the genetic variation by natural immigration, successful expansion of available habitat and development of a second population based on captive individuals may be crucial for persistence of this leopard subspecies in the wild.

Winter food habits of sympatric carnivores, Amur tigers and Far Eastern leopards, in the Russian Far East
TL;DR: This study suggests that the availability of three different ungulate species, the tigers’ preference for wild boar, and the diverse prey base ofLeopards contribute to the coexistence of tigers and leopards in this region.

Potential negative impacts of introduced rainbow trout on endangered Sakhalin taimen through redd disturbance in an agricultural stream, eastern Hokkaido
TL;DR: The high degree of spatial and temporal overlap in spawning, the similar egg burial depths of both species, and the high proportion of superimposed redds suggest that the introduced rainbow trout impact the endangered Sakhalin taimen in Hokkaido, and possibly, in other areas where the two species occur together.
