Mountain pine beetle outbreaks and associated management alter habitat selection by large ungulates. Using GPS collar data, we found that caribou responses to beetle‐affected, timber‐harvested, and burned areas varied across designatable units and depending on the amount of disturbance present within home ranges, while moose responses were sex‐specific.

Human access and time of day affect the behavior (movement rate, selection) of grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) near recreation sites in a protected area. Males used trails to travel during crepuscular and nocturnal hours, especially in restricted areas, whereas females showed more cautious responses, suggesting security trade‐offs.

We analyzed sika deer density trends over 27 years in 256 mesh‐units in Hokkaido, Japan. High‐density areas saw sharp declines, while low‐density areas remained stable. Prioritizing management in high‐density areas can improve overall control efficiency. Abstract Population reduction through hunting and nuisance control has been practiced in many parts

Factors influencing Wisconsin deer hunter participation in voluntary CWD testing
Hunter participation in testing harvested white‐tailed deer for chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a critical wildlife disease surveillance strategy. We present the results of a binary logistic model to quantify the effects of CWD status of the county of harvest, perceptions of CWD risk, trust in information provided by the management agency, and belief ...

ABSTRACT Afforestation is one of the widely used methods of reclamation in cutaway peatlands where spontaneous revegetation is not feasible, but fertilization or liming is usually required to encourage the development of vegetation cover. Wood ash application increases planted tree biomass, but the role of spontaneously incoming species in early‐stage ...

ABSTRACT Wildfires are increasingly recognized as a critical driver of ecosystem degradation, with post‐fire hydrological and soil impacts posing significant threats to biodiversity, water quality, and long‐term land productivity. In fire‐prone regions, understanding how varying fire intensities exacerbate runoff and erosion is essential for guiding ...
