Effect of season and high ambient temperature on activity levels and patterns of grizzly bears (Ursus arctos). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Understanding factors that influence daily and annual activity patterns of a species provides insights to challenges facing individuals, particularly when climate shifts, and thus is important in conservation.

From human invaders to problem bears: A media content analysis of grizzly bear conservation

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2020
Across their North American range, grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) occupy a special place in human imagination, as icons of nature's rugged and raw power, to representations of safety risks and economic costs of living with carnivores.

Convergent geographic patterns between grizzly bear population genetic structure and Indigenous language groups in coastal British Columbia, Canada

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2021
Landscape genetic analyses of wildlife populations can exclude variation in a broad suite of potential spatiotemporal correlates, including consideration of how such variation might have similarly influenced people over time.

The role of human outdoor recreation in shaping patterns of grizzly bear-black bear co-occurrence.

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

Estimating grizzly and black bear population abundance and trend in Banff National Park using noninvasive genetic sampling. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We evaluated the potential of two noninvasive genetic sampling methods, hair traps and bear rub surveys, to estimate population abundance and trend of grizzly (Ursus arctos) and black bear (U.

Troublemaking carnivores: conflicts with humans in a diverse assemblage of large carnivores

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2017
Human-wildlife conflicts are a global conservation and management challenge. Multipredator systems present added complexity to the resolution of human-wildlife conflicts because mitigation strategies often are species-specific. Documenting the type and

Density and genetic diversity of grizzly bears at the northern edge of their distribution

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
Species at the periphery of their range are typically limited in density by poor habitat quality. As a result, the central–marginal hypothesis (CMH) predicts a decline in genetic diversity of populations toward the periphery of a species' range.

The estimation of grizzly bear density through hair‐snagging techniques above the tree line

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2015
Assessing grizzly bears' (Ursus arctos) abundance in the Arctic has been challenging because of the large scale of their movements and the remoteness of field locations.
