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.

Maximizing the detection probabilities of dusky grouse for population monitoring

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Despite its status as a game species in the western USA, rigorous monitoring of dusky grouse Dendragapus obscurus populations is limited. Obtaining an adequate number of observations for effective population monitoring of dusky grouse is challenging due to difficult‐to‐reach montane habitats, cryptic behaviors, and limited personnel, time, and funds at

Heading west: ecology of swift foxes in a novel landscape beyond their range

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The swift fox Vulpes velox is generally associated with the short‐grass prairie ecosystem of the North American Great Plains; a system that has declined by approximately 50% over the last century. Yet, swift fox populations seem to demonstrate regional variation in trends, with some populations declining while others appear stable to increasing.

The performance of drones and artificial intelligence for monitoring sage‐grouse at leks

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Accurately monitoring sage‐grouse populations is critical for conservation, yet traditional ground‐based visual surveys face challenges in scalability and consistency, prompting the exploration of innovative drone‐based methodologies enhanced by artificial intelligence.

The wolf is back! Non‐consumptive effects of the return of a large carnivore on the use of supplementary feeding sites by roe deer

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus
