In the featured article for this issue, researchers looked at the relationship between humans, domestic dogs and bears in conflicts across North America from 1901 to 2023. They uncovered that it may be riskier to hike with a dog companion than without one when it comes to bear attacks.

Other articles in this issue address the potential of military lands providing an opportunity to recover red wolves, how little penguins select nest boxes and how recreational boats affect beluga whale dispersion and more.
