Johnny Birks, Stephanie Johnstone, Ed Snell, Jenny MacPherson (2025) What is the future for The Martes Complex (Guloninae) in the face of climate change and ecological breakdown?

The climate and ecological emergency (CEE) is impacting the natural world with increasing severity, with likely serious consequences for the Martes Complex (Guloninae) including range contraction and fragmentation, ecosystem collapse and disrupted inter-species relationships. We assessed the relative vulnerability of each species of Guloninae to the CEE based on IUCN listings, threats to preferred habitat, habitat specificity, global range size, and the nature and number of Köppen-Geiger climate zones occupied.
