A comparison of abundance estimators for small mammal populations
Zoologia (Curitiba), 2013 A major difficulty in the application of probabilistic models to estimations of mammal abundance is obtaining a data set that meets all of the assumptions of the model.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Rehabilitation and release contribute to conservation efforts for threatened species. Ensuring that these efforts are effective requires a good understanding of the factors which determine survival and integration of released animals into wild populations.

Simple Estimation and Test Procedures in Capture-Mark-Recapture Mixed Models
, 2012 International audienceThe need to consider in capture-recapture models random effects besides fixed effects such as those of environmental covariates has been widely recognized over the last years.

Ontogeny of foraging behaviour in an opportunistic gull inhabiting urban marine ecosystems
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urbanization affects ecosystems by reducing biodiversity and displacing species from native habitats. While some suffer, others, like urban wildlife, adapt through innovative feeding and behaviours that improve their fitness in human‐altered settings. Despite research on wildlife in urban areas, the development of foraging behaviour in urban species is

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Reliable abundance estimates provide essential information in ecology, conservation and management of many wild grouse populations. In this 3‐year study, we comparatively evaluate the suitability of traditional line transect distance sampling of flushed birds versus a spatial capture–recapture survey with noninvasive DNA samples for individual ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Overabundant populations of eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus in peri‐urban areas pose ecological and social challenges. Current management strategies are often hindered by animal welfare and logistical concerns. This study aimed to assess stress responses of kangaroos to two contraceptive delivery methods.

Capture-recapture histories of adult boobies
, 2016 Capture-recapture histories of 4608 blue-footed boobies resighted as breeders during systematic monitoring of a fixed study area (26 889 m2) on Isla Isabel during two months (February and March) of the breeding season.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Long‐term population monitoring is fundamental to wildlife population management. Furbearer populations are often surveyed using multiple methods, but many estimates of their abundance, especially abundance indices, do not account for detection error, and lead to conflicting interpretations of population trends.

A state-space modelling approach to population size estimation [PDF]
, 2010 We consider populations of wild animals that are closely monitored over time, by being recaptured on multiple occasions, until finally recovered dead or lost to follow up.

Estimating IPv4 address space usage with capture-recapture
, 2013 As of April 2013 almost 95% of the IPv4 address space has been allocated. Yet, the transition to IPv6 is still relatively slow. One reason could be existing 'IPv4 reserves'---allocated but unused IPv4 addresses.
