Migration of Elk (Cervus canadensis) and Barriers to Movement

, 2023
Movement patterns of animals are varied, complex, and can be influenced by environmental and anthropogenic factors. One form of animal movement, migration, is influenced by environmental factors that alter the timing, duration, intensity, and likelihood ...

Introgression of exotic Cervus (nippon and canadensis) into red deer (Cervus elaphus) populations in Scotland and the English Lake District

Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Since the mid‐19th century, multiple introductions of Japanese sika deer (Cervus nippon nippon) and North American wapiti (C. canadensis) have taken place in the British Isles. While wapiti have generally been unsuccessful, sika have been very successful,

Exploring the exploration: implications of leaving or remaining at the natal site during the early stages of independence in a partially migratory bird

Ibis, EarlyView.
Despite being an important fraction of any animal population, juveniles are a severely understudied group. Juveniles often need to learn an array of skills that allow them to survive independently and do so while undertaking decisions that may impact their fitness, recruitment and survival, having therefore relevant demographic implications.

Integrating natural baselines into ecosystem restoration: scaling herbivore targets for European landscapes

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Herbivore‐mediated ecosystem processes are fundamental to biodiversity, yet have been greatly diminished by megafauna extinctions and replacement of wild herbivores by managed livestock. With increasing restoration ambitions—including the United Nations' (UN) Decade on Ecosystem Restoration and the European Union (EU) Nature ...

Import and presence of wapiti (Cervus canadensis) in Sweden [PDF]

, 2022
En kombination av jaktlagstiftningen under 1700-talets senare hälft, illegal jakt samt befolkningsökning i Sverige resulterade i en minskad population av stora hjortdjur i Sverige.

Intermediate frequency of aversive conditioning best restores wariness in habituated elk (Cervus canadensis).

PLoS ONE, 2018
In protected areas around the world, wildlife habituate to humans and human infrastructure, potentially resulting in human-wildlife conflict, and leading to trophic disruptions through excess herbivory and disconnection of predators from prey.

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2214-2239, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Whole-genome sequencing of Tahe red deer (Cervus hanglu yarkandensis) reveals genetic diversity and selection signatures

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
The Tahe red deer (TRD), domesticated and artificially raised from wild Tarim red deer, is valued for its high-quality antlers and ability to survive tough desert conditions. Nowadays, the decline in the population of TRD has significantly impacted their

Beyond the encounter: Predicting multi‐predator risk to elk (Cervus canadensis) in summer using predator scats

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
There is growing evidence that prey perceive the risk of predation and alter their behavior in response, resulting in changes in spatial distribution and potential fitness consequences.
