Living under the scope: behavior affects survival in a heavily harvested and long‐lived ungulate

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The spatiotemporal behavior of game species may play a critical role in their survival throughout the hunting season. Where humans are the most dominant predators, avoidance of landscape features that allow hunter access to hunting grounds can be key to increasing survival.

METTL3/YTHDC1-medicated m6A modification of circRNA3634 regulates the proliferation and differentiation of antler chondrocytes by miR-124486-5-MAPK1 axis

open access: yesCellular & Molecular Biology Letters, 2023
Background The deer antler, a remarkable mammalian appendage, has a growth rate surpassing that of any other known osseous organ. Emerging evidence indicates that circRNA and MAPK1 play critical roles in chondrocytes. Thus, exploration of their functions

Ungulate substrate use in fauna passages

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Fauna passages are increasingly constructed at major roads and railways to mitigate the negative effects of infrastructure and traffic on wildlife. The function of such passages depends on design, including the construction materials, soil, and vegetation.

Effects of extreme environmental conditions on white‐tailed deer antlers

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2019
Antler size and morphology is the resultant combination of deer age, nutrition, and genetics. Additionally, extreme environmental conditions can affect deer health, which may influence current and future antler metrics.

Simulating antler growth and energy, nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus metabolism in caribou

open access: yesRangifer, 1998
We added antler growth and mineral metabolism modules to a previously developed energetics model for ruminants to simulate energy and mineral balance of male and female caribou throughout an annual cycle.

Spin and Chirality Effects in Antler-Topology Processes at High Energy $e^+e^-$ Colliders

open access: yes, 2015
We perform a model-independent investigation of spin and chirality correlation effects in the antler-topology processes $e^+e^-\to\mathcal{P}^+\mathcal{P}^-\to (\ell^+ \mathcal{D}^0) (\ell^-\mathcal{\bar{D}}^0)$ at high energy $e^+e^-$ colliders with ...

Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...

Delineating seasonal shifts in reindeer habitat and diet selection by integrating GPS telemetry and stable isotope analysis

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Seasonal changes shape herbivore behaviour by altering forage availability and habitat conditions; however, few studies integrate diet and habitat selection data across temporal scales. This study uses seasonality as a unifying framework to combine fine‐scale GPS‐based habitat selection data with broader‐scale dietary information from stable isotope ...
