Quantifying fenbendazole and its metabolites in self-medicating wild red grouse Lagopus lagopus scoticus using an HPLC–MS–MS approach [PDF]
On red grouse estates in the UK the nematode parasite Trichostrongylus tenuis is often controlled by application of grit medicated with the anthelmintic fenbendazole (FBZ).

Restoration Potential of Bighorn Sheep in a Prairie Region [PDF]
ABSTRACTEfforts to recover Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis canadensis) throughout western North America have had limited success with the majority of current populations remaining in small and isolated areas on a fraction of their historical range.

Can edge AI mitigate environmental effects on camera trap performance?
A camera trap enabled with edge artificial intelligence (AI) mitigated the effects of increased air temperature on the probability of false positive detections, but at the cost of an increased probability of missed detections. Other environmental variables affected camera trap performance differently, suggesting the need to account for camera trap ...

Toward a unified approach to modelling adaptation among demographers and evolutionary ecologists
Abstract Demographic and evolutionary modelling approaches are critical to understanding and projecting species responses to global environmental changes. Population matrix models have been a favoured tool in demography, but until recently, they failed to account for short‐term evolutionary changes.

Sharp gene pool transition in a population affected by phenotype-based selective hunting
We use a microscopic model of population dynamics, a modified version of the well known Penna model, to study some aspects of microevolution. This research is motivated by recent reports on the effect of selective hunting on the gene pool of bighorn ...

Temporal Changes in Tasmanian Devil Genetic Diversity at Sites With and Without Supplementation
ABSTRACT Management interventions for threatened species are well documented with genetic data now playing a pivotal role in informing their outcomes. However, in situ actions like supplementations (releasing individuals into an existing population) are often restricted to a singular site. Considerable research and management effort have been dedicated

A case for human mobility data applications in wildlife management
Human mobility data provides a transformative tool for wildlife management by offering scalable, dynamic insights into human activity that traditional methods cannot fully capture. These data enable managers to prioritize intervention areas, improve compliance with management zones, mitigate conflict risks, and enhance connectivity for sensitive ...

Bighorn Sheep Translocation: Two Case Studies from the Ground [PDF]
Bighorn sheep (Ovis Canadensis) translocation is a major tool towards meeting bighorn population recovery goals statewide. However, finding and establishing release sites requires navigating a complex series of biological, political, and social ...
