Researchers from the IEE RAS, the Mara-Meru Nature Reserve in Kenya, and LMSU have described for the first time the vocal repertoires of adult and cub wild cheetahs from Kenya.
Radiography is one of the most promising methods for non-invasively determining the age of animals. In this study, the researchers applied it for the first time to live rodents from a wild population.
A new study, conducted by researchers from the TIINRD SB RAS and the IEE RAS, summarizes the results of nearly thirty years of fieldwork in the region (1993–2022).
Many soil animals, superficially similar, actually belong to different species. These so-called cryptic or "hidden" species play an important role in soil functioning but remain undetected by traditional research methods.
IEE RAS staff presented their papers at the "Evolutionary Biology" section. Both papers generated considerable interest and discussion, as they examined the survival characteristics of animals in urban environments.
The fox is the largest predator in Losiny Ostrov. Without predators, forest communities are incomplete, so the fox plays a significant ecological role in the urban forest.
For International Maritime Day, Alexander Supin, Doctor of Biological Sciences and chief researcher at the Sensor Systems Laboratory at the IEE RAS, spoke to Kommersant journalists about marine life.
