Behavioural responses of brown bears to helicopter capture

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding the effects of capture and handling on wild animals is crucial in evaluating ethical practices in ecological research, and in avoiding biased conclusions from misinterpreting biologging data potentially affected by capture. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of helicopter capture on the behaviour of Scandinavian brown bears ...

Denning chronology in an Arctic brown bear population

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Denning is a critical behavioral adaptation for brown bears Ursus arctos to cope with winter, a period of extended resource scarcity. Bears reduce their body temperature, heart rate, and metabolism during this time to minimize energy expenditures. The Arctic has among the most pronounced and longest period of resource scarcity. Thus, we predicted bears
