Abstract:
The lack of fundamental biological information on the honey badger Mellivora capensis and its vulnerable conservation status were the motivating factors behind this study. A study population of 25 individuals (12 females; 12 males) was radio-marked in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park (KTP), South Africa. Through a combination of radio telemetry and visual observations (5 244 h) of nine habituated individuals (five females; four males), the feeding ecology, scent marking and social behaviour of the honey badger were investigated.

Abstract:
The diet of the European badger in the Maremma Natural Park consisted of fruits and insects and these food categories constituted about 90% of the total amount of food eaten (by volume) in each year of the study. Faecal analyses showed that earthworms and the remaining food resources played a secondary role in the diet. Temporal and spatial variation occurred in the diet; insects were exploited mainly during winter and spring, and fruits mainly during summer and autumn. The bulk of the food comprised juniper berries in the pinewood, and Coleoptera larvae and adults, strawberry-tree fruits and

Overwhelming evidence for senescence, the within-individual decline in performance at advanced age, has now been documented in the natural populations of many taxa. As such, the focus of senescence research is shifting from simply documenting its existence, towards understanding the fundamental mechanisms underpinning it and determining which environmental factors give rise to the considerable variation in senescence rates observed in nature.

Abstract:
Bovine TB in cattle is a major economic problem in the UK, costing the government approximately £100m a year. Badgers are a wildlife host of the infection that causes bovine TB, and there is strong evidence that they transmit the infection to cattle. Understanding the ecology and epidemiology of infected badger populations is therefore crucial for implementing disease management strategies relating to badgers. Genetic and phenotypic data of badgers captured during a large-scale field trial of repeated, widespread badger culls were used to assess the importance of parental roles on the impacts

Sociality in carnivores is theoretically expected to produce quantitatively different dynamics compared to solitary species, exhibiting Allee effects, increasing extinction risk and limiting population growth. There is also evidence in social species that demographic stochasticity can impact the population when densities are high. Empirical support for these processes is lacking and the effects of socio-spatial structure on population dynamics is now widely debated.
