Journal Article
O’Malley, K. D., Kunin, W. E., Town, M., Mgoola, W. O., & Stone, E. L. (2020). Roost selection by Mauritian tomb bats (Taphozus mauritianus) in Lilongwe city, Malawi – importance of woodland for sustainable urban planning. PLoS ONE, 15(11), e0240434. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0240434

Increasing urbanisation has led to a greater use of artificial structures by bats as alternative roost sites. Despite the widespread presence of bats, roost availability may restrict their distribution and abundance in urban environments. There is li...

Spatial partial identity model reveals low densities of leopard and spotted hyaena in a miombo woodland (2020)
Journal Article
Davis, R. S., Stone, E. L., Gentle, L. K., Mgoola, W. O., Uzal, A., & Yarnell, R. W. (2021). Spatial partial identity model reveals low densities of leopard and spotted hyaena in a miombo woodland. Journal of Zoology, 313(1), 43-53. https://doi.org/10.1111/jzo.12838

Decline in global carnivore populations has led to increased demand for assessment of carnivore densities in understudied habitats. Spatial capture–recapture (SCR) is used increasingly to estimate species densities, where individuals are often identi...
