Evaluating novel attachment methods for tracking devices on terrestrial mammals

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
We deployed GNSS tracking devices on 2 endangered large terrestrial mammals, scimitar‐horned oryx and Przewalski's horses, using novel attachment methods. Tags achieved fix success rates and spatial accuracy that compare well with standard collars used on large mammals.

Alternative foraging strategies enable a mountain ungulate to persist after migration loss

open access: yesEcosphere, 2017
The persistence of many migratory ungulate populations worldwide is threatened due to anthropogenic impacts to seasonal ranges and migration routes. While many studies have linked migratory ungulate declines to migration disruption or loss, very few have

Ecology of reintroduced Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep in Dinosaur National Monument La Ecología de Borrego Cimarron de las Montañas Rocosas Reintroducido en el Monumento Nacional de Dinosaurio

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, Volume 223, Issue 1, August 2026.
We synthesized GPS telemetry, genetic, and pathogen data to evaluate metapopulation processes in a reintroduced Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis canadensis) population in Dinosaur National Monument. We estimated subpopulation‐specific abundances and found 4 small subpopulations with high genetic diversity, partial connectivity, and ...

Understanding mammal avoidance of human settlements

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1504-1517, August 2026.
Terrestrial mammals often avoid human settlements, but is this a result of human activity around buildings or the built infrastructure per se? Using data on animal movement before and during the COVID‐19 lockdowns, this paper disentangles these effects, showing how changes in human mobility affect animals' avoidance of buildings. Abstract Anthropogenic

Translocation effects on regional and local population viability and connectivity

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Translocations and reintroductions aim to improve the viability of isolated populations and promote connectivity for large carnivores. However, there is no established framework for assessing their success. We used the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in western and central Europe to assess the impact of translocations on the viability of six ...

Detecting short‐term responses to weekend recreation activity: Desert bighorn sheep avoidance of hiking trails

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2013
To study potential effects of recreation activity on habitat use of desert bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni), we placed Global Positioning System collars on 10 female bighorn sheep within the Wonderland of Rocks–Queen Mountain region of Joshua Tree

Abnormal Coloration in Bighorn Sheep (Ovis canadensis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Despite no mention of abnormal coloration in bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis) in two earlier reviews addressing that subject, leucism, piebaldism, and melanism do occur in that species.
