Experimental assessment of large mammal population estimates from airborne thermal videography

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife resource management requires reliable, fast, and affordable methods of surveying wildlife populations to develop and adaptively adjust policies. Thermal video from drones can yield high rates of detection over large areas with relative speed and safety.

Born to die: pack and population level estimates of wolf pup survival and recruitment in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wolf pup Canis lupus survival is a key driver of wolf population dynamics that remains poorly understood, especially in forested systems, because wolf pups are difficult to monitor. We used a combination of pup counts at dens and remote camera observations to estimate annual survival and recruitment of wolf pups in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem, MN ...

Pickin' up good vibrations: a systematic review of footfall detection and analysis in the realm of wildlife surveying

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

Risk factors for bark stripping damage on Norway spruce by red deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Norway spruce Picea abies is an economically important tree species in Europe, actively managed for forestry. Among the most negative biotic factors for growth and hence forest production is damage caused by wildlife, such as damage through bark stripping by red deer Cervus elaphus.

The effects of moose and pine density on browsing damage in Swedish pine forests

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Moose Alces alces is a culturally and economically important game species in Sweden, but their browsing on regenerating Scots pine trees Pinus sylvestris often causes extensive damage to the production and quality of timber. Forest and wildlife managers are faced with the dilemma of how to reduce damage to timber trees while also supporting moose ...
