Use of intraperitoneal radiotransmitters to study mountain lion (Puma concolor) Kittens
Implantation of radiotransmitters in juvenile carnivores allows researchers to study little‐known life stages. In the field, we successfully implanted 7 mountain lion (Puma concolor) kittens from 2 litters in the Santa Monica Mountains (Los Angeles and ...

Effects of fixed and dynamic mesh methods on simulation of stepped planing craft
In the present study, we investigate the effects of fixed and dynamic mesh methods on CFD simulation of stepped planing craft. To this accomplishment, three different body forms of without step, one step, and two step Cougar planing crafts are considered.

Rebreeding of Female Mountain Lions After Litter Mortality
Despite litter size and kitten survival in mountain lions (Puma concolor) being well‐documented, there is a critical gap in the literature regarding the time that elapses between litter mortality and subsequent rebreeding in females.

Impacts of management practices on habitat selection during juvenile mountain lion dispersal
Dispersal is a complex series of movements before an individual establishes a home range. Animals must travel and forage in unfamiliar landscapes that include anthropogenic risks such as road crossings, harvest, and urban landscapes. We compare dispersal
