Facilitating evolutionary rescue from a wildlife health threat with cross-sectoral strategies
Evolutionary rescue, the ability of a species to evolve under new selective pressures and rebound from threats, occurs within a social-ecological system. Evolutionary rescue may help wildlife populations persist in the face of extinction threats such as emerging infectious diseases, which are often caused or exacerbated by human activities and are inherently difficult to manage. Effective management of wildlife health often relies upon changing h…
The continuum of care as a unifying framework for intergenerational and interspecies health equity
Introduction: Unlocking the full potential of different people and organizations to address existential health threats requires shared goals and frameworks that allow people to see themselves contributing to a common and shared continuum of care. A new narrative to help people implement collective action for collective problems is needed. Methods: This paper is draw from the co-authors experience working from the local to international level on p…

Evidence of Sars-CoV-2 Related Coronaviruses Circulating in Sunda pangolins (Manis javanica) Confiscated From the Illegal Wildlife Trade in Viet Nam
Despite the discovery of several closely related viruses in bats, the direct evolutionary progenitor of SARS-CoV-2 has not yet been identified. In this study, we investigated potential animal sources of SARS-related coronaviruses using archived specimens from Sunda pangolins ( Manis javanica ) and Chinese pangolins ( Manis pentadactyla ) confiscated from the illegal wildlife trade, and from common palm civets ( Paradoxurus hermaphroditus ) raised…
Implications of Zoonoses From Hunting and Use of Wildlife in North American Arctic and Boreal Biomes
The COVID-19 pandemic has re-focused attention on mechanisms that lead to zoonotic disease spillover and spread. Commercial wildlife trade, and associated markets, are recognized mechanisms for zoonotic disease emergence, resulting in a growing global conversation around reducing human disease risks from spillover associated with hunting, trade, and consumption of wild animals. These discussions are especially relevant to people who rely on harve…
Using the “Footprint” Approach to Examine the Potentials and Impacts of Renewable Energy Sources in the European Alps
The expansion of renewable energies is regarded as a key way to mitigate global climate change and to ensure the provision of energy in the long term. However, conflicts between these goals and local nature conservation goals are likely to increase because of the additional space required for renewable energies. This is particularly true for mountainous areas with biodiversity-rich ecosystems. Little effort has been undertaken to systematically c…
