Initial colonization of Long Island, New York by the eastern coyote, Canis latrans (Carnivora, Canidae), including first record of breeding

open access: yes, 2017
Coyotes (Canis latrans Say, 1823) have increased their range dramatically over the past century. Formerly restricted to western North America, they now roam across the continent, in many habitats including large cities.

Should you use data integration for your distribution model?

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This paper explores cases where data integration (the joint modelling of two or more observational datasets) is useful for species distribution models, and also highlights cases where it's actually not useful. This provides the first concrete guidance for deciding whether or not data integration is worth your time.

Habitat Features, Coyotes, and Humans Drive Diel Activity Variation Among Sympatric Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that multiple mammal species show considerable variation in diel activity in response to several factors, with biotic variables (habitat features and the presence of coyotes Canis latrans) having the strongest overall effects. Our results have important implications for trophic dynamics. Future studies will need to account for these underlying

Eastern Coyote Vs. Western Coyote [9 Differences]

open access: yes, 2023
Are you curious to know the differences between eastern and western coyotes? This article explores nine key distinctions between these two species. Eastern coyotes tend to be larger, measuring 4 to 5 feet and weighing 30 to 50 pounds, while western coyotes are slightly smaller, measuring around 3.3 to 4.3 feet and weighing 20 to 30 pounds.

Nonlinear Biasing and Redshift-Space Distortions in Lagrangian Resummation Theory and N-body Simulations

open access: yes, 2011
Understanding a behavior of galaxy biasing is crucial for future galaxy redshift surveys. One aim is to measure the baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs) within the precision of a few percent level.

Food Subsidies Reduce Livestock Depredations by a Recovering Carnivore

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Diversionary feeding—providing food caches to divert predators away from preying on livestock—is a strategy to reduce depredations by Mexican gray wolves but has not been evaluated for its effectiveness. We used data from the Mexican wolf recovery program from 2014‐2021 to evaluate whether diversionary feeding reduced livestock depredations by wolf ...

Can coyote predation risk induce reproduction suppression in white-tailed deer?

open access: yes, 2016
Predators can have powerful nonconsumptive effects on their prey by inducing behavioral, physiological, and morphological responses. These nonconsumptive effects may influence prey demography if they decrease birthrates or increase susceptibility to ...

Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...
