Unveiling human–wildlife interactions in the context of livestock grazing abandonment and the return of large carnivores, ungulates and vultures: A stakeholder perspective

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.

Views from the hill: Deer stalkers' perspectives on land‐use change in the Scottish Highlands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Land‐use and wildlife management are changing globally as part of efforts to address contemporary environmental challenges. In the Scottish Highlands, the hunting—or ‘stalking’—of deer has entered a period of considerable flux primarily because of national policy changes to mitigate climate change and biodiversity loss.

Ranging behaviour of translocated roe deer in a Mediterranean habitat: seasonal and altitudinal influences on home range size and patterns of range use [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this study we investigated the causes of seasonal variation in the home ranges of roe deer reintroduced to the Gardunha Mountains (Portugal). From May 2002 to April 2003, 1 year after the animals had been released, we collected data using radio ...

Cameras do not always take a full picture: wolf activity patterns revealed by accelerometers versus road‐positioned camera traps

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera traps have become an increasingly popular non‐invasive alternative to animal‐attached devices for studying wildlife behaviour. This study compared wolf (Canis lupus) activity patterns derived from collar accelerometers and road‐positioned camera traps and revealed strong overall agreement but also important seasonal and diel mismatches between ...

Knee height is often right: evaluating device height effects on camera trapping rate

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera trap deployment height can introduce systematic biases in detection trapping rates across species of different body sizes. Combining 172 paired sampling points in five experiments across Europe, North America and Africa, our results show that low cameras significantly increase detections of small‐ and medium‐sized species, whereas high cameras ...

Comparing life expectancy of three deer species between captive and wild populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Life in zoological gardens provides a number of benefits to captive animals, resulting in an artificial reduction of the “struggle for life” compared to their free-ranging counterparts.

Monitoring GPS‐collared moose by ground versus drone approaches: efficiency and disturbance effects

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Efficient wildlife management requires precise monitoring methods, for example to estimate population density, reproductive success, and survival. Here, we compared the efficiency of drone (equipped with a RGB camera) and ground approaches to detect and observe GPS‐collared female moose Alces alces and their calves. We also quantified how drone (n = 42)
