The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We estimated the distribution of the federally threatened wolverine (Gulo gulo) across the western United States in 2022, evaluated changes in distribution since 2017 (the last survey), and made inference on drivers of wolverine occurrence. This monitoring program and subsequent results are used by states to make management and conservation decisions ...

Inadvertent identity activation may influence measurement of wildlife‐related attitudes
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Interest group members in a 2023 Montana mail survey reported lower mean tolerance for wolves when the recruitment letter addressed them by their group identity (2.94, SE = 0.11) than when it did not (3.37, SE = 0.22). Survey content was identical and only the salutation differed. Tolerance was measured on a 5‐point scale (1 = very intolerant, 5 = very
