Selection of Pathways to Foraging Sites in Crop Fields by Flightless Canada geese
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Geese, especially when they are flightless, can cause significant crop damage. We determined the effects of shoreline characteristics on foraging site selection by flightless Canada geese (Branta canadensis) in South Dakota.

Growth and flowering responses of eelgrass to simulated grazing and fecal addition by Brant Geese
Ecosphere, 2021 Seagrasses provide a wide range of ecosystem services and are prioritized in conservation planning. Management of this dynamic community requires describing seagrass responses to repeated grazing by dependent herbivores. Using two experimental randomized

Density-dependent switches in diet:a likely mechanism for negative feedbacks on goose population increase? [PDF]
, 2009 Goose grazing on arctic tundra vegetation has shown both positive and negative effects on subsequent foraging conditions. To understand the potential of a density-dependent feedback on herbivore population size, the relation between grazing pressure and ...

Site fidelity and range size of wintering Barnacle Geese Branta leucopsis [PDF]
, 2003 Barnacle Geese restrict their movements to relatively few key sites and exhibit considerable variation in ranging behaviour. To examine individual and seasonal variation in site fidelity, habitat use, range size and foraging strategies of Barnacle Geese

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Wildlife research has benefitted from the development of new methods that allow data to be collected remotely, with less disturbance to focal animals. The proliferation of livestreaming webcams, for example, those used by nature reserves for public engagement purposes, have offered new possibilities for the study of wildlife behaviour.

Using programmable infusion pump in avian species – a validation methodology in geese
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Wildlife face anthropogenic and natural stressors that affect their physiology and behaviour. The activity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and glucocorticoid (GC) production is intrinsically linked with energy regulation and environmental stressors.
