A comparison of thermal drones and camera trap population estimates for Sitka black‐tailed deer in Alaska

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
One of the most difficult challenges for wildlife managers is reliably estimating wildlife populations. Camera traps combined with spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models are a popular tool for population estimation. They have limitations, however, including long data processing times.

A high‐altitude thermal infrared method for estimating moose abundance and demography in Rocky Mountain National Park, USA

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species.

Citizen science project on urban canids provides different results from camera traps but generates interest and revenue

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As urbanization increases, wildlife increasingly encounters people. Coyotes Canis latrans and red foxes Vulpes vulpes are two canid species that have readily adapted to urban environments. Citizen science has emerged as a low‐cost method of collecting data on urban‐adapted species that can benefit management agencies but may provide different results ...

Does a decision support tool designed to depict West Nile virus risk explain variation in ruffed grouse Bonasa umbellus use of managed forests?

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Infectious diseases are commonly cited as significant contributors to wildlife population declines. It is, therefore, important to investigate the extent to which tools designed to mitigate the effects of infectious diseases explain wildlife responses to habitat management.

A framework for the ethical use of animal‐borne devices in post‐release monitoring following rehabilitation

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Rehabilitation and release contribute to conservation efforts for threatened species. Ensuring that these efforts are effective requires a good understanding of the factors which determine survival and integration of released animals into wild populations.
