Opening a can of lungworms: Molecular characterization of Dictyocaulus (Nematoda: Dictyocaulidae) infecting North American bison (Bison bison)

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2022
Dictyocaulus is a globally distributed genus of lungworms of domestic and wild ungulates. Dictyocaulus adults inhabit the bronchi, frequently causing subclinical and clinical disease, and that impacts animal health and production.

Facing into the Blizzard: Resiliency and Mortality of Native and Domestic North American Ungulates to Extreme Weather Events

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Unseasonably early blizzards in the northern Great Plains threaten large mammal populations unacclimated for variable and extreme winter conditions. This region averaged 22 blizzards per winter season during the 2010s, up from 6 during the 1960s, and is ...

Dynamic Plant–Herbivore Interactions between Bison Space Use and Vegetation Heterogeneity in a Tallgrass Prairie

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Investigations into plant–herbivore interactions are of importance for understanding grassland ecosystem dynamics. Our research quantified the effects of vegetation heterogeneity at a patch scale of 30 m on bison space use in a tallgrass prairie through ...
