Age and spatial behavior determine survival of male elk during the hunting season
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We sought to investigate factors that influenced survival of male elk in Montana, USA, during the hunting season using 4 years of movement, age, and survival data. Our findings demonstrate that use of security attributes are the result of behavioral and demographic mechanisms with some age‐based nuances.

Assessing potential impacts of black bear predation on neonatal mortality in boreal caribou
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We used simulations to show that even if caribou give birth in areas with the least chance of encountering a black bear, there are so many bears on the landscape that predation risk for caribou calves can still be quite high. Bear densities used in our simulation were typical for the boreal forest.

Results‐based approach for biodiversity management at the farm scale: proposal for a new method
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We propose in this article to operationalize the concept of adaptive management by testing a results‐based approach to biodiversity management on a research farm located on the French Atlantic coast. We describe the project design consisting of the identification of several target species with their quantified objectives and the building of dashboards ...

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We investigated low American oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) productivity in the Virginia barrier islands, which historically supported high oystercatcher reproductive success. We found that chick survival was lower than nest survival, and that management may need to adapt to address evolving threats from coastal flooding and a multi‐guild ...
