Survival, movements, home range size and dispersal of hares after coursing and/or translocation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Hare coursing is the pursuit of a hare by dogs for sport. In recent years in Ireland, between 2,900 to 3,700 hares have been caught from the wild (under Government license) and held in captivity for up to 8 weeks. Hares are given a head start and coursed

Odor Fences Have No Effect on Wild Boar Movement and Home Range Size [PDF]
AnimalsWild boars are an opportunistic wildlife species that has successfully colonized the human-modified landscape in Europe. However, the current population boom has negative consequences, which result in a rapid increase in human–wildlife conflicts and ...

Linking seasonal home range size with habitat selection and movement in a mountain ungulate [PDF]
Movement Ecology, 2018 Background Space use by animals is determined by the interplay between movement and the environment, and is thus mediated by habitat selection, biotic interactions and intrinsic factors of moving individuals.

Home range size of Tengmalm's owl during breeding in Central Europe is determined by prey abundance. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Animal home ranges typically characterized by their size, shape and a given time interval can be affected by many different biotic and abiotic factors. However, despite the fact that many studies have addressed home ranges, our knowledge of the factors ...

Influence of Reproductive Status: Home Range Size in Water Voles (Arvicola amphibius). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The relationship between home range and reproductive status of water voles (Arvicola amphibius) was studied by radio-tracking on an island off the coast of northern Norway in 2006-2009.

Movements, home-range size and habitat selection of mallards during autumn migration. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) is a focal species in game management, epidemiology and ornithology, but comparably little research has focused on the ecology of the migration seasons.

Home range size variation in female arctic grizzly bears relative to reproductive status and resource availability. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The area traversed in pursuit of resources defines the size of an animal's home range. For females, the home range is presumed to be a function of forage availability.

Sex and Age Effects on Monk Parakeet Home-Range Variation in the Urban Habitat
Diversity, 2021 Home-range size is a key aspect of space-use, and variation in home-range size and structure may have profound consequences for the potential impact of damage and control strategies for invasive species.
