Studies into cytauxzoon and helminth infections of bobcats (Lynx rufus) of Northwest Arkansas [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of Cytauxzoon felis and gastrointestinal helminth infections in bobcats (Lynx rufus) of Northwest Arkansas, an area known to have numerous cases of cytaux in domestic cats.

An important feature of Bayesian statistics is the opportunity to do sequential inference: the posterior distribution obtained after seeing a dataset can be used as prior for a second inference.

Historical distributions of bobcats (Lynx rufus) and Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) suggest no range shifts in British Columbia, Canada [PDF]
Species across the planet are shifting their ranges in response to climate change and habitat loss. However, range shifts may vary, with populations moving in some areas but remaining stable in others; the conditions that encourage range stability rather than range shifts are poorly known.

Interannual breeding site fidelity in eastern wild turkey flocks
Individual female wild turkeys tend to use the same breeding season space as other female wild turkeys that lived within 7.5 km, both in the same year and in different years. This means that landscape management for wild turkeys should take into account that conservation actions taken on a landscape could have multi‐generational impacts for wild ...

The growing use of accelerometry by ecologists to measure energy expenditure can make physiologists sweat due to its many pitfalls. This review comprehensively describes the use of accelerometry in wild animals, the successes (and failures) of calibrations and how best to estimate energy expenditure from accelerometers.

Sustainable Planning of Land Use Changes in farming areas under ecological protection [PDF]
Land use has been changing in the last decades because of agricultural intensification and land abandonment which implies deterioration in the optimum habitat structure and quality.

Detection of time reversibility in time series by ordinal patterns analysis
Time irreversibility is a common signature of nonlinear processes, and a fundamental property of non-equilibrium systems driven by non-conservative forces.

Eroding Cycles Along a Southern Range Boundary: Snowshoe Hares in the Great Lakes Region
ABSTRACT Aim The regular cycling of animal populations has fascinated ecologists for over a century. Some cycling populations have recently however, exhibited instability, often attributed to climate change. Snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus) cycles are well documented, displaying peaks every 8–11 years.

Multi-species genetic connectivity in a terrestrial habitat network
Background Habitat fragmentation reduces genetic connectivity for multiple species, yet conservation efforts tend to rely heavily on single-species connectivity estimates to inform land-use planning.
