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 bear circadian clock doesn’t ‘sleep’ during winter dormancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Most biological functions are synchronized to the environmental light:dark cycle via a circadian timekeeping system. Bears exhibit shallow torpor combined with metabolic suppression during winter dormancy. We sought to confirm that free-running circadian

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

Grizzly bears in Yellowstone National Park [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
The problem we solved is based on the population of grizzly bears at Yellowstone National Park. Since this population is currently declining, our specific problem centered around a seed group of 52 grizzlies, transported from Yellowstone to another area ...

Prolonged transition time between colostrum and mature milk in a bear, the giant panda, Ailuropoda melanoleuca [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Bears produce the most altricial neonates of any placental mammal. We hypothesized that the transition from colostrum to mature milk in bears reflects a temporal and biochemical adaptation for altricial development and immune protection.

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.
