Heading west: ecology of swift foxes in a novel landscape beyond their range

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The swift fox Vulpes velox is generally associated with the short‐grass prairie ecosystem of the North American Great Plains; a system that has declined by approximately 50% over the last century. Yet, swift fox populations seem to demonstrate regional variation in trends, with some populations declining while others appear stable to increasing.

How absolute biomass intake can alter nutrient profile interpretation in free‐ranging species: the case of protein intake in brown bears

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
If an animal eats a large amount of a diet of a low content of a macronutrient, it can still ingest a considerable amount of that macronutrient. Various animals have been shown to balance nutrient content with intake in this way. We use the brown bear Ursus arctos as a model species, given their recent classification as ‘low protein omnivores', to show

Evaluating the accuracy of wolverine identification from photographs of snow tracks by expert observers in North America

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
North American wolverines Gulo gulo are a species of conservation concern across much of their range. The remote and rugged terrain they occupy has led to the development of various remote detection methods. While visual identification of wolverine tracks has a long history of use, it has recently been considered less reliable than other remote ...

Predicting Spatial Distributions of Mammalian Predation on Translocated Wild Turkeys in Agriculturally Dominated Landscapes 在以农业为主的景观中哺乳动物对易地放归的野生火鸡捕食的空间分布预测

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
The edge densities of cropland, developed land, and water bodies (panel a) predict the spatial probability of mammalian predation on wild turkeys (panel b) using Mahalanobis distance factor analysis in Quitman County, Mississippi, United States. The three habitat fragmentation variables are represented by three arrows, respectively.

Evaluating patterns of plant phenological progression and pronghorn movement behaviors across diverse landscapes Évaluation des modèles de progression phénologique des plantes et des comportements de mouvement des antilopes d'Amérique dans divers paysages

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, EarlyView.
We found variable spatial and temporal patterns and predictability of plant phenological progression across 8 pronghorn ranges in Montana. We sampled potential exposure to phenology values for migrants and residents along spring movement paths and summer ranges and found that within herds and years the resident and migrant movement strategies conferred

Documenting den characteristics of bears and wolves in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem using LIDAR technology

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Previous studies have documented den site characteristics through physical measurements recorded by researchers in the field. Using the light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensor onboard an Apple iPad Pro, we scanned the interior of black and grizzly bear dens (n = 9) located in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) to generate point clouds of den ...

Fatal babesiosis in a free-ranging iberian wolf co-infected with Hepatozoon canis and Leishmania infantum: Epidemiological implications for the cantabrian wolf population

open access: yesInternational Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Health surveillance of large carnivores, such as the Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus), allows the early detection of emerging and established pathogens in natural environments, due to their position in the top of the food chain.
