As a member of The Wildlife Society you can now easily read the full text of the most talked about papers from the Journal of Wildlife Management and the Wildlife Society Bulletin.
The list of papers below includes those with the highest Altmetric scores. These scores are composed of metrics and qualitative data that are complementary to traditional, citation-based metrics. They can include — but are not limited to — mainstream media coverage, discussions on research blogs and mentions on social networks such as Twitter. Many journals today use the Altmetric scoring system because it indicates the amount of attention a paper has received. Authors also find the scores useful to follow engagement in their publications.
