Monitoring wolverine (Gulo gulo) distribution across the western United States for regional and national assessment

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We estimated the distribution of the federally threatened wolverine (Gulo gulo) across the western United States in 2022, evaluated changes in distribution since 2017 (the last survey), and made inference on drivers of wolverine occurrence. This monitoring program and subsequent results are used by states to make management and conservation decisions ...

Evaluation of the marking duration of iophenoxic acid (IPA) derivatives in raccoons (Procyon lotor)

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We evaluated the marking duration and intensity of iophenoxic acid (IPA) analogues in raccoon (Procyon lotor) serum following consumption of test doses encapsulated in a marshmallow or formulated into an oral rabies vaccine bait matrix. The IPA biomarkers demonstrated utility for evaluation of oral rabies vaccination baiting strategies targeting ...

Aboveground herbivory elevates belowground rhizosphere volatile organic compound concentrations in ambient and polluted air, independent of volatile sampling methodology

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The effect of air pollution on plants is still underexplored, especially belowground. We used a field facility that released diesel exhaust and ozone at concentrations equivalent to those near a busy road in Reading, UK, to measure belowground gas exchange of Scots pine together with feeding by large pine weevils, a major pest of conifers.
