Wildfire influences species assemblage and habitat utilisation of boreal wildlife after more than a decade in northern Sweden

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Fires can strongly change the vegetation structure and the availability of resources for wildlife, but fire suppression has long affected the natural role of fire in shaping boreal ecosystems in northern Europe. Recently, wildfires have increased in frequency, possibly due to global warming.

Bimodal nesting season in Karoo dwarf tortoises (Chersobius boulengeri)

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Tortoises in arid, unpredictable regions may use a bet‐hedging strategy of regularly laying small clutches regardless of actual environmental conditions, so that some hatchlings will emerge when conditions are favourable. Karoo dwarf tortoises (Chersobius boulengeri) are endangered in their arid, unpredictable range in South Africa, yet studies of ...

Benefit or ecological trap? Monitoring the effects of small clear‐cuts on capercaillie Tetrao urogallus and its mammalian predators

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The shift to ‘close to nature forestry' as the dominating forestry regime in western‐European forests has resulted in increasing timber volume and denser forests with negative effects on photophilic species. Hence, there is an increasing focus on active habitat management measures to support these species.

Nesting ecology of an ice‐associated seabird, Kittlitz's murrelet, at the northern edge of its range

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We studied the Kittlitz's murrelet, an ice‐associated seabird of conservation concern, at the northern edge of its range. Over a 2‐year period, we estimated nest density and success at 2 sites, captured and telemetered nesting murrelets, and tested the use of a thermal camera to improve nest detection.
