Born to die: pack and population level estimates of wolf pup survival and recruitment in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wolf pup Canis lupus survival is a key driver of wolf population dynamics that remains poorly understood, especially in forested systems, because wolf pups are difficult to monitor. We used a combination of pup counts at dens and remote camera observations to estimate annual survival and recruitment of wolf pups in the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem, MN ...

Consumption of anthropogenic foods influences the nutritional and reproductive condition of hunter‐harvested black bears

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The consumption of human food subsidies influences ecological processes, and can affect individual behavior and fitness with population level changes in abundance and distribution. American black bears Ursus americanus often consume human food subsidies, which have been correlated with increased bear body size, age‐specific fertility and mortality ...

How to stay wild in a highly domesticated landscape? Spatiotemporal behaviour of wolves in Germany

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wild animals can adapt to the increasing presence of humans by either becoming accustomed to it or by avoiding humans by spatiotemporal separation. The return of the wolf to the German lowlands raised the opportunity to study wolf behaviour in one of the most densely populated and fragmented countries in Europe, in an area where topography offers no ...

Pickin' up good vibrations: a systematic review of footfall detection and analysis in the realm of wildlife surveying

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

The effects of moose and pine density on browsing damage in Swedish pine forests

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Moose Alces alces is a culturally and economically important game species in Sweden, but their browsing on regenerating Scots pine trees Pinus sylvestris often causes extensive damage to the production and quality of timber. Forest and wildlife managers are faced with the dilemma of how to reduce damage to timber trees while also supporting moose ...
