Historical population declines prompted significant genomic erosion in the northern and southern white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum)
Large vertebrates are extremely sensitive to anthropogenic pressure, and their populations are declining fast. The white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum) is a paradigmatic case: this African megaherbivore has suffered a remarkable decline in the last 150 years due to human activities. Its subspecies, the northern (NWR) and the southern white rhinoceros...Sánchez‐Barreiro, Fátima ; Gopalakrishnan, Shyam ; Ramos‐Madrigal, Jazmín ; Westbury, Michael V ; Manuel, Marc …

African and Asian leopards are highly differentiated at the genomic level
Leopards are the only big cats still widely distributed across the continents of Africa and Asia. They occur in a wide range of habitats and are often found in close proximity to humans. But despite their ubiquity, leopard phylogeography and population history have not yet been studied with genomic tools....Paijmans, Johanna L A ; Axel, Barlow ; Becker, Matthew S ; Cahill, James ; Fickel, Joerns …
