Effect of carcass storage condition on searcher efficiency trials for conservation detection dogs

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We investigated the influence of storage condition on bat carcass odor through chemical analysis. Additionally, we tested the detectability of 3 carcass storage conditions through searcher efficiency trials with conservation detection dogs. Only 20% of the chemicals observed were shared across all 4 carcass storage conditions.

Disrupting the herd: Recreational boating alters group dispersion within beluga whale herds

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Recreational boating in beluga habitat remains poorly documented. Using land‐based observations in the Saguenay Fjord (Quebec, Canada), we show that increasing recreational boat numbers are associated with a higher probability of changes in beluga herd dispersion, suggesting behavioral disturbance and the need to integrate recreational boating into ...

Cougar density on the Oregon Coast: Using dead recovery modeling in an open population

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
The primary objective of this study was to determine cougar density in western Oregon. Our results demonstrate that integrating DNA collected via bio‐darting, mandatory hunter‐harvest check‐ins, and GPS collar data into the OPCR2 is a reliable method for estimating cougar densities in densely forested coastal systems.

Effect of age class on the survivorship and spatial movement patterns of headstarted Texas horned lizards soft‐released into an urban population

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
When compared to resident lizards of the corresponding age class, juvenile headstarted Texas horned lizards soft‐released into an urban population exhibited more favorable responses to short‐term translocation objectives (i.e., daily movement rates, home range sizes, and survival rates) than did conspecifics headstarted to the adult age class ...
