Validation of grizzly bear hair hormone profiles as a tool to monitor population demographics
We measured 16 steroid and thyroid hormone concentrations in grizzly bear hair to predict sex, age class, and reproductive status. Models were highly accurate when predicting sex and age class and showed promise for assessing reproductive status. Results illustrate the potential for hair hormone profiles as non‐invasive population monitoring tools ...
