Beauty is Attractive: Moduli Trapping at Enhanced Symmetry Points [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We study quantum effects on moduli dynamics arising from the production of particles which are light at special points in moduli space. The resulting forces trap the moduli at these points, which often exhibit enhanced symmetry. Moduli trapping occurs in

Translocation of Swamp Rabbits in Southern Illinois [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Habitat of Sylvilagus aquaticus (swamp rabbits) in Illinois has been reduced and fragmented due to human land use. Translocation may enable swamp rabbits to colonize isolated habitat patches.

Artificial nests as an alternative to studies of arboreal small mammal populations: a five-year study in the Atlantic Forest, Brazil

open access: yesZoologia (Curitiba), 2011
Despite the great diversity of Brazilian Atlantic forest small mammals, natural history of most species is unknown due to their cryptic and nocturnal habits, but also due to the inadequacy of methods to capture some species, especially those of arboreal ...

Small mammals of the Mongolian mountain steppe region near Erdensant: insights from live-trapping and bird pellet remains. [PDF]

open access: yesMongolian Journal of Biological Sciences, 2005
Relatively little is known of the distribution, abundance and ecology of small mammals in Mongolia and as a result there is scant knowledge of the effects of environmental and anthropogenic factors on small mammal populations.

Age structure, dispersion and diet of a population of stoats (Mustela erminea) in southern Fiordland during the decline phase of the beechmast cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The dispersion, age structure and diet of stoats (Mustela erminea) in beech forest in the Borland and Grebe Valleys, Fiordland National Park, were examined during December and January 2000/01, 20 months after a heavy seed-fall in 1999.

A Live-Trap and Trapping Technique for Fossorial Mammals [PDF]

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Zoology, 1979
An effective live-trap was designed for Cryptomys hottentotus (Bathyergidae) arid Amblysomus hottentotus (Chrysochloridae). Factors involved in the design and adaptability of this trap for use in various field conditions and live capture of other fossorial mammals are discussed.'n Doeltreffende val is ontwerp om Cryptomys hottentotus (Bathyergidae) en ...

Effects of trap confinement on personality measurements in two terrestrial rodents. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
In recent years, consistent individual differences in behavior, or personalities, have been a topic of increasing interest as researchers strive to understand and predict the responses of individuals and populations to anthropogenic changes.

Development and testing of a mechanical lure for raptor trapping

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2013
Raptor trapping and banding at migration stations rely upon the use of live lure birds to attract hawks to the trapping area. The use of these lure animals may present raptor researchers with legislative, regulatory, ethical, and logistical challenges ...

Mass Trapping of Live Male Bactrocera dorsalis Hendel (Diptera: Tephritidae): Interaction between Trap Types and Period of Trapping

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2023
Mass trapping of insects involves the use of specific traps or devices that are designed to attract and capture a large number of adult insects, thereby reducing their population in the agricultural environment.
