Gray wolves as climate change buffers in Yellowstone. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2005 Understanding the mechanisms by which climate and predation patterns by top predators co-vary to affect community structure accrues added importance as humans exert growing influence over both climate and regional predator assemblages.

Efficacy of Acoustic Triangulation for Gray Wolves
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2020 Acoustic triangulation is a unique, relatively noninvasive monitoring approach that can inform our understanding of a species’ distribution in time and space. Acoustic triangulation relies on standard triangulation techniques to determine the location of

Estimating biomass of berries consumed by gray wolves
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2017 Gray wolves (Canis lupus) consume berries and other wild fruits seasonally when available or abundant. However, a method to convert percent frequency of occurrence or percent volume of berries in wolf scats to percent biomass has not yet been developed ...

Tooth fracture frequency in gray wolves reflects prey availability. [PDF]
Elife, 2019 AbstractExceptionally high rates of tooth fracture in large Pleistocene carnivorans imply intensified interspecific competition, given that tooth fracture rises with increased bone consumption, a behavior that likely occurs when prey are difficult to acquire.

Population responses of common ravens to reintroduced gray wolves. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2018 AbstractTop predators have cascading effects throughout the food web, but their impacts on scavenger abundance are largely unknown. Gray wolves (Canis lupus) provide carrion to a suite of scavenger species, including the common raven (Corvus corax). Ravens are wide‐ranging and intelligent omnivores that commonly take advantage of anthropogenic food ...

EPAS1 variants in high altitude Tibetan wolves were selectively introgressed into highland dogs [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Background Admixture can facilitate adaptation. For example, black wolves have obtained the variant causing black coat color through past hybridization with domestic dogs and have higher fitness than gray colored wolves.
