New: The Specialist Predator Hypothesis is discussed here and David provide evidence that it is not well supported to explain lemming cycles and, de facto, the temporal dynamics of the Arctic tundra food web. However, ermines do have a major impact on it. Find out in the MS how! Its open access.
Seasonal role of a specialist predator in rodent cycles: Ermine–lemming interactions in the High Arctic
The exact mechanisms behind population cycles remain elusive. An ongoing debate centers on whether predation by small mustelids is necessary and sufficient to generate rodent cycles, as stipulated by...

Consumerism is one of the underlying issues responsible for climate and biodiversity crises. Can we stop "celebrating" Black Friday, and do a White Friday (in honour of polar and montane wildlife) instead? A "buy nothing" day - or maybe week, month or more? Who's with me?
