Problem Perspectives and Grizzly Bears: A Case Study of Alberta’s Grizzly Bear Recovery Policy [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Since their threatened species listing in 2010, grizzly bear recovery has been a controversial policy issue in Alberta, Canada particularly because this charismatic carnivore represents a diverse set of values, both positive (e.g., an icon of beauty and ...

Space–time clusters for early detection of grizzly bear predation [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2018 Accurate detection and classification of predation events is important to determine predation and consumption rates by predators. However, obtaining this information for large predators is constrained by the speed at which carcasses disappear and the ...

The role of human outdoor recreation in shaping patterns of grizzly bear-black bear co-occurrence. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Species' distributions are influenced by a combination of landscape variables and biotic interactions with other species, including people. Grizzly bears and black bears are sympatric, competing omnivores that also share habitats with human ...

Grizzly bear response to fine spatial and temporal scale spring snow cover in Western Alberta. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 Snow dynamics influence seasonal behaviors of wildlife, such as denning patterns and habitat selection related to the availability of food resources. Under a changing climate, characteristics of the temporal and spatial patterns of snow are predicted to ...

Grizzly Bear Noninvasive Genetic Tagging Surveys: Estimating the Magnitude of Missed Detections. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Sound wildlife conservation decisions require sound information, and scientists increasingly rely on remotely collected data over large spatial scales, such as noninvasive genetic tagging (NGT). Grizzly bears (Ursus arctos), for example, are difficult to

Predicting future grizzly bear habitat use in the Bitterroot Ecosystem under recolonization and reintroduction scenarios. [PDF]
PLoS ONEMany conservation actions must be implemented with limited data. This is especially true when planning recovery efforts for extirpated populations, such as grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) within the Bitterroot Ecosystem (BE), where strategies for ...

A Bear of a Case: Multidisciplinary Reconstruction Following a Grizzly Bear Mauling [PDF]
Clinical Case ReportsGrizzly bear attacks are rare but often result in devastating craniofacial injuries requiring staged, multidisciplinary reconstruction. A 61‐year‐old male sustained extensive facial trauma, including complete lower lip avulsion and anterior mandibular ...

A Comparison of Grizzly Bear Demographic Parameters Estimated from Non-Spatial and Spatial Open Population Capture-Recapture Models. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Capture-recapture studies are frequently used to monitor the status and trends of wildlife populations. Detection histories from individual animals are used to estimate probability of detection and abundance or density.
