Potential for conflict between urban coyotes and people experiencing unsheltered homelessness
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.Across North America, both unsheltered homelessness and human–coyote (Canis latrans) conflict are increasing, but the relationship between these phenomena has not been thoroughly explored. We synthesize literature‐based evidence with anecdotal observations that occurred during a 15‐year study of coyotes in Edmonton, Canada, to describe three likely ...

Military lands provide an opportunity to recover red wolves
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Red wolf (Canis rufus) recovery remains challenging, with only one population persisting and no reintroductions since 1998. Despite extensive, biodiverse properties in the Southeast with conservation mandates, military lands have been overlooked. In our paper, we evaluate them as a potential path forward for red wolf reintroduction sites.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.During an outbreak of 7 wildfires in eastern Oregon, USA, we analyzed the home range and movement patterns of mule deer and elk before, during, and immediately after wildfires. Mule deer maintained high site fidelity during the wildfire but used their home range more uniformly and had higher daily displacement than deer unaffected by wildfire.

Quantity discrimination in wolves (Canis lupus)
Frontiers in Psychology, 2012 Quantity discrimination has been studied extensively in different non-human animal species. In the current study, we tested eleven hand-raised wolves (Canis lupus) in a two-way choice task. We placed a number of food items (one to four) sequentially into

Identification of carnivore kill sites is improved by verified accelerometer data
Animal Biotelemetry, 2020 Background Quantifying kill rates is central to understanding predation ecology. However, estimating kill rates and prey composition in carnivore diets is challenging due to their low densities and cryptic behaviors limiting direct observations ...
