Assessing Ecological Connectivity for <i>Loxodonta africana</i> Across Transfrontier Conservation Areas in Southern Mozambique. [PDF]
We present the first spatially explicit assessment of ecological connectivity for African bush elephant (Loxodonta africana) in southern Mozambique, spanning the Great Limpopo and Lubombo Transfrontier Conservation Areas. By integrating Resource Selection Function with landscape connectivity analysis, we provide spatially explicit prioritization of ...

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

Unlocking the “Virtual Cage” of Wildlife Surveillance [PDF]
The electronic surveillance of wildlife has grown more extensive than ever. For instance, thousands of wolves wear collars transmitting signals to wildlife biologists. Some collars inject wolves with tranquilizers that allow for their immediate capture

Habitat selection of moose in Sweden in managed boreal forests with Pinus contorta and P. sylvestris
Human land use can take advantage of using exotic species to increase financial benefits. However, the use of exotic tree species might affect ecosystem functioning, potentially including the habitat use and movement behaviour of animals, modifying their ecological impact, and interactions with human land use.

Near real time seismic data from the coastal ocean [PDF]
A moored-buoy system for collecting near real-time seismic data from the coastal ocean has been developed and will be deployed for its initial field trial in the fall of 2016.

Using a 3‐year, broad‐scale camera‐trap network in western Kansas, we tested whether coyotes and American badgers exhibit spatiotemporal patterns consistent with coordinated hunting. Despite high diel activity overlap, detection‐conditioned co‐detections occurred far less frequently than expected under independence, and short‐term temporal sequencing ...

GPS Technology for Semi-Aquatic Turtle Research
Global positioning system (GPS) telemetry units are now small enough to be deployed on terrestrial and semi-aquatic turtles. Many of these GPS units use snapshot technology which collects raw satellite and timestamp data during brief periods of data ...

Using radiotelemetry, we found that the movement and home range of the endangered Sacalia bealei varied significantly across reproductive classes and seasons, with males exhibiting greater movement than females during wet and mating seasons. The species exhibits strong aquatic dependence, favoring deep pools interspaced among riffle‐pool sequences ...

In 2005, five nestling Imperial Eagles (Aquila heliaca) were fitted with battery-powered GPS Satellite Transmitters (PTTs) in Slovakia to study their behaviour after fledging, two of them in the east and the other three in the west of the country.
