The predation risk was variable among the analyzed matrices (pasture, cornfields and Eucalyptus plantation)

Differences between matrices can be perceived by individuals who change their behaviors in order to maximize benefits and minimize risk at each environment.

The risk of predation can be reduced when the visual field facilitates the perception of fragments in the environment (pasture) or when the matrix offers resources and shelters (Eucalyptus).

Tortuous movements can either mean lack of direction (i.e. visual obstruction, cornfield) or resource utilization or pauses to avoid predators (Eucalyptus).

This study shows the importance of planning and managing matrices to reduce risks and favors landscape connectivity, especially around isolated native vegetation areas.

Land changes can hinder landscape-level pollination through bee species loss.

Bees were more diverse at functionally connected and highly heterogeneous landscapes.

We propose non-linear effects of heterogeneity and functional connectivity on bees.

Proper landscape-level bee pollination needs interspersed high quality environments.

Burmese pythons are invasive to the Everglades and are expanding into more fragmented habitats.

Movement behavior may impact how the landscape influences python populations in Florida.

We used simulation modeling to investigate how behavior impacts population expansion.

A behaviorally plastic boldness strategy best matched observed python expansion.

Behavioral trade-offs and behavioral flexibility may influence population expansion.

Almost half of Beaded lizards that encounter humans are victims of aversive hunting.

Sightings increase in conserved areas whilst hunting may be explained by cultural dogmas.

Dissemination of knowledge about Beaded lizards may greatly enhance their conservation.

Habitat management and tolerance are essential steps in the conservation strategy.

Spatial and temporal aggregation patterns of roadkills are recurrently used to mitigate road impacts.

The aim of this study is to assess if hotspots/hot-moments remain in the same locations and periods over time and at different spatial and temporal scales.

Hotspots and hot-moments occurred over time, but at large temporal and spatial scales.

We suggest using longer road sections and longer time in order to minimize uncertainty.

Costs and benefits using different spatial and temporal units to detect WVA are similar.

Jaguar tourism contributes to economic and ecological sustainability of Pantanal.

The Pantanal is the only brazilian biome that has policies for wildlife tourism.

Government supervision applying tourism laws on Pantanal are limited.

The tourism basically is self regulated by the guides and tourism operators.

Pantanal has the potential to be an example to wildlife tourism development.
