Garbage in the diet of carnivores in an agricultural area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Human food waste is considered to be richer in carbohydrates, lipids and proteins than most natural food supplies; however, it is very well digested in scats. So, as an indication of this kind of food in the diet, we have used each indigestible,

The roles of habitat and intraguild predation by coyotes on the spatial dynamics of kit foxes

open access: yes, 2017
Intraguild predation (IGP) by a dominant predator can drive the spatial dynamics of a subordinate predator and may explain space-use patterns that deviate from theoretical predictions that species will use areas that maximize the availability of limited ...

Wildlife temporal behaviors in response to human activity changes during and following COVID‐19 park closures

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
With urbanization reducing the amount of available wildlife habitat, and outdoor recreation increasing the human activity within wildlife habitats, it is important to understand the effects of human activity on animal behavior. This study examined how the reduction in human presence in urban parks in Gainesville, Florida, affected the temporal ...

Are human‐altered landscapes reshaping carnivore niche spaces in the Trans‐Himalaya?

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding carnivore interactions under growing human pressures is crucial for conservation. We examined spatial and temporal niche structuring among snow leopards Panthera uncia, Himalayan wolves Canis lupus chanco, and red foxes Vulpes vulpes; while also incorporating free‐ranging dogs Canis lupus familiaris as a human‐subsidized mesopredator ...

Quantifying microhabitat selection of snowshoe hares using forest metrics from UAS‐based LiDAR

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Identifying the spatial and temporal scale at which animals select resources is critical for predicting how populations respond to changes in the environment. The spatial distribution of fine‐scale resources (e.g. patches of dense vegetation) are often linked with critical life‐history requirements such as denning and feeding sites.

Will an artificial scent boundary prevent coyote intrusion?

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2011
Highly territorial species such as coyotes (Canis latrans) use scent‐marks to delineate boundaries, and it has been suggested that canids may be repelled from areas by using human‐placed scent‐marks. To evaluate the potential of artificial scent‐marks as

Experimental lure design reveals the best attractants for increasing detection of multiple mesocarnivores

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many mesocarnivores have low detection rates that hinder practitioners' abilities to implement effective monitoring strategies. Using olfactory attractants (i.e. lures) may increase detection rates, but variation in effects among species is not well understood.

A Box-Cox double-hurdle model of wildlife valuation: the citizen’s perspective. [PDF]

open access: yes
A stated-preference approach is used to elicit the attitudes of the general public towards coyotes conservation. The payment vehicle is presented in a way that explicitly prompts individuals to adopt a citizen perspective, rather than a consumer ...
