[5/6] L’étude confirme que les routes agissent comme des perturbateurs écologiques, modifiant les rythmes d’activité sans forcément repousser les espèces. Ces adaptations comportementales permettent un accès limité aux zones routières à moindre risque. #geography #roadimpact #habitatfragmentation

Looking at plant-pollinator interactions, the reproductive efficiency & seed germination performances were evaluated. S. lingustica is insect-pollinated & self-incompatible, but is likely threatened more by #HabitatFragmentation & land-use change than anything else! 👇(2/2)

[4/6] Les cerfs montrent la plus forte "évitement temporel", décalant nettement leur activité vers la nuit aux abords de FM106. Ce comportement peut s’expliquer par la pression combinée du trafic et de la présence accrue de prédateurs comme les coyotes. #geography #roadimpact #habitatfragmentation

[3/6] Bobcats et coyotes sont paradoxalement plus souvent observés près de la route. Leurs comportements suggèrent qu’ils y trouvent des avantages (proies, déplacements). Leur activité évite cependant les pics de circulation, réduisant ainsi les risques de collision. #geography #habitatfragmentation
