Keystone structures maintain forest function for Canada lynx after large-scale spruce beetle outbreak

Environmental Research: Ecology, 2022
Central to species conservation in an era of increased disturbance from climate change is understanding the primary mechanisms that facilitate how forest-dependent species respond to changes in forest structure and composition.

Plague as a Mortality Factor in Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis) Reintroduced to Colorado [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2006
As part of a species recovery program, 129 Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) originating from British Columbia, the Yukon, Manitoba, and Quebec, Canada, and Alaska, USA, were reintroduced to southwestern Colorado, USA, from 1999 to 2003. Of 52 lynx mortalities documented by October 2003, six lynx, including a female and her 5-mo-old kitten, had evidence of

Behavioural interactions among Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis) during pre-estrous

, 2021
Information is lacking on the behaviour of free-roaming Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis) during the breeding season, likely because they are rarely observed in the wild.

Density estimates for Canada lynx vary among estimation methods

Ecosphere, 2021
Unbiased population density estimates are critical for ecological research and wildlife management but are often difficult to obtain. Researchers use a variety of sampling and statistical methods to generate estimates of density, but few studies have ...

Winter recreation and Canada lynx: reducing conflict through niche partitioning

Ecosphere, 2019
Outdoor recreationists are important advocates for wildlife on public lands. However, balancing potential impacts associated with increased human disturbance with the conservation of sensitive species is a central issue facing ecologists and land ...

Evaluating evolutionary history and adaptive differentiation to identify conservation units of Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019
Protection and management of adaptively diverse populations is critical to meet the goals of conservation policy and to conserve the evolutionary potential of species into the future.

Long-term monitoring in the boreal forest reveals high spatio-temporal variability among primary ecosystem constituents

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
The boreal forest, the world’s largest terrestrial biome, is undergoing dramatic changes owing to anthropogenic stressors, including those of climate change.

Salvage logging after an insect outbreak reduces occupancy by snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus) and their primary predators

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019
Salvage logging after a natural disturbance is controversial because it may disrupt forest succession and reduce the value of wildlife habitat, but few studies have examined consequences on predator-prey systems.

Dining with a glutton: an intraguild interaction between scavenging wolverine (Gulo gulo) and lynx (Lynx canadensis)

Ecosphere, 2023
Intraspecific interactions between mesocarnivores are not commonly observed and consequentially not well understood, particularly for species inhabiting wilderness regions.
