This paper develops and tests an adaptive surveillance framework for early detection of transboundary animal diseases in wildlife under uncertainty, showing improved sensitivity and ability to detect unexpected events.

The paper rebuts a critique by showing that re-analyzed data supports the original findings that the transmissible cancer in Tasmanian devils has transitioned to endemism.

This study examines how a transmissible cancer in Tasmanian devils affected breeding strategies and survival, finding no continued increase in precocial breeding or inbreeding depression.

The paper examines spatial niche separation between invasive feral cats and native western quolls in South Australia, finding they occupy distinct habitats with cats preferring grasslands and quolls avoiding areas with high cat density.

This study tests how reducing European rabbit populations affects feral cat activity using camera surveys in South Australia, finding that only warren destruction significantly altered cat detections.
